Blindsolving Failure Thread

1:28.06 3BLD Off by 4 flipped edges :( I think I did the 2 flip alg on the wrong orientation. Reallllly easy scramble. I still don't have a sub 2 single lol

The scramble starts with 4 flipped edges though. I flipped 1 pair of them and didn't notice there was another! But nice try, I look forward to you getting fast at BLD. :)

Edit: Oh wait. I just realized that my different orientation and solving method could have left me with my buffer (orange-white) staying as flipped, where as for you, it could have not. Never mind.

0/4 multi BLD in 16:41.44

I was starting to consider myself pretty good at blindfold solving, but I'm not quite sure now...
So bad the weekly comp isn't even letting me submit it :p

edit: 4BLD off by soo much. Since memo was crap, I decided to solve edges with full comms. I'm pretty sure that I had messed up centers because I didn't even get corners, and I got one or two wings.

Not sure how I DNFed this with a 3:08.68 (off by three random wings)

4 solved corners. Since my corner buffer is ULF I had one corner target and two easy-to-solve twisted corners.

Thanks :) This solve was just a really lucky and easy solve for me. I'm averaging around 2:30 with lots of fail sub 2 attempts. And yeah, we have different orientation. Mine is yellow on top, blue on front.
 
5BLD dnf : 20:19.16

2 MIDGES. WHY. I've done 5bld before, but never timed it, I've been trying to get one and this is the closest timed solve i've had :( I even got the centers, which wasn't much to work with, I only had 4 X-centers solved.

I don't even know what happened, my UL and DF midges where flipped.
 
5:55.96[2:35] and 6:01.99[2:38] - undoing of one set of center set-ups incorrectly on both. Otherwise memo was correct and execution was spot on with no pauses.

Time to switch to fixed buffers.

Is there a way to tell if you have 3bld parity without doing memo
