Awesome BLD scramble + UWR

[Derrick Eide17]

Wow.. just got this scramble While Racing Rowe BLD on msn and he got a new UWR with it! its an AMAZING scramble at first we though was lucky but its not more than 4 pieces solved and im pretty sure thats not lucky and he got 31.28 on it so yeah new UWR.

Scramble while holding the cube the same way you solve it BLD.

L2 R' D2 U B2 F' D F' L2 B' L' B2 F D B L2 B D B' F L D F' D U'

i DNFed it btw

 

[Lucas Garron]

48.01 DNF, 4-flip (S) Apparently I forgot to exec EO. But I don't remember forgetting to do it...

 

[masterofthebass]

59.21 DNF
Off by parity

BTW... it wasn't THAT great.

 

[ConnorCuber]

Heh, i suck at bld... 4:10.93, new pb though.

 

[Ville Seppänen]

48.39, execution sucked.

 

[blah]

DNF, I hate parity

 

[Kian]

wow, 4 edges solved, 2 misoriented edges.

that being said, dnfed it. haha. could have easily been my pb, though, i rushed it knowing that it was going to be easy.

For blindfold solving a lucky case is defined by:
1) more than 5 corners are correctly oriented, or
2) more than 8 edges are correctly oriented, or
3) more than 3 corners are correctly positioned, or
4) more than 4 edges are correctly positioned.

I'm guessing this NOT a lucky solve. It has 4 edges with the correct orientation and permutation, 3 corners in their correct places, 8 edges correctly oriented.

2:08.29; not bad for me. Considering I've typically been running 30 seconds slower than I was a month ago, actually a pretty good time. Although it was lucky by the other typically-used criterion that most M2 solvers tend to use (20% solved).

Still, I just want to say WOW!!! about Rowe's 31.28 time. Lucky or not, that's just mind-blowing! I probably couldn't speedsolve it that fast.

Edit: So yeah, I tried it. 31.48 speedsolving it. So yeah, Rowe is faster BLD than I am sighted. I really stink!

*Wants to try it, but has no cube now *

I will edit this post with my result later. Can't wait to try it.

EDIT: Umm, that was a really hard scramble for me. I DNFed.

 

[McWizzle94]

that was actually a difficult scramble if you used M2 and 3-cycle corners.

btw, that 31 second solve by Rowe is sick!!!

1:06.61
not bad, considering I've been kind of out of practice. I think this is my second best ever? Maybe?

 

[Pedro]

56.43 DNF

don't know for sure what went wrong...

 

[Derrick Eide17]

some people have said they dont believe rowe or that he got 31.28 on that scramble thinking he just couldnt do it that fast with that scramble.

so he wanted me to post his solution and here it is.


Scramble:
L2 R' D2 U B2 F' D F' L2 B' L' B2 F D B L2 B D B' F L D F' D U'

Corners:
(f2) U’ R U R’ U’ R U R’ L’ R U’ R’ U R U’ R’ U L (f2) (corner orientation)
(UFL FLD LDB)
(u’) D’ L’ U L D L’ U’ L (u)
(UFL LUB RUB)
(u) R’ U2 R’ F’ R2 F R U2 R’ F’ R2 F R2 (u’)
(Here is where I fixed parity UFL RBD BR BL)
U2 (r’) R U R’ U’ R’ F R2 U’ R’ U’ R U R’ F’ ( r ) U2

Edges:
(ur) B2 R’ M2 U M U2 M’ U M2 R B2 (r’u’)

(u’) M R’ U’ R U M’ U’ R’ U R M’ R’ U’ R U M U’ R’ U R

and thats it. Your amazing rowe

3:11.41

Still pretty slow, but for me it's a new PB by almost a minute.

Rowe is really amazing.

Try out this scramble:
U L2 F2 R' F R2 U' R' U B R' B L2 F' L2 U' F2 R' F2 D B2 L2 F2 R D' B2

 

[Derrick Eide17]

Before I even try that scramble.. im gonna take a guess that it just solves the whole cube or gets it from 1 move away.. lemme see

Edit: Nope. i was wrong lol

 

[Nghia]

Try out this scramble:
U L2 F2 R' F R2 U' R' U B R' B L2 F' L2 U' F2 R' F2 D B2 L2 F2 R D' B2

yay ! 1:20.33 on that one

 

[Mike Hughey]

Try out this scramble:
U L2 F2 R' F R2 U' R' U B R' B L2 F' L2 U' F2 R' F2 D B2 L2 F2 R D' B2

Wow - I got 1:41.40. Best time I've ever gotten, lucky or unlucky. But with 5 pieces already solved (4 edges plus 1 corner), it's clearly a very lucky scramble.
