I was more thrilled than I looked. This was my 9th attempt and it pretty much made my day, especially because of all the cycle breaks on the wings and an execution mistake. Pretty sure I can halve this time quite easily.

Edit: 15:56.22[8:22.54]. Dang, nearly half! haha. So much easier when you're not worried about getting a success.


Memo:
Corners: A WaNd creates a bag of LeT's (from community). FiVe (high5toons logo on a poster)

Wings: DRagon scratches a FOssil. Some SaKe falls into quicksand (QX). Unreal Tournmaent case covered in goo (GU). BP employee handing me a HasBro game
LilWayne eating some MEat. LiV (from Skins) with a bottle of sodium (NA). CV (curriculum vitae)

Centers:
A book about VEnus being read by K-paX (Prot from K-Pax). Old Quill writing on ALuminium. GeMma with a toy RaceCar. NeD punches THor.

Horrible mistake during execution:
The setup for RU for the r2 method is B' R B. The algorithm for solving BU starts with that.
When shooting to RU I thought I was doing the BU alg for some reason. So I did that alg, then realized that was wrong.
I didn't know whether I'd set up RU or not before doing the wrong alg. I figured out that RU and BU start with the same moves and guessed that I'd switched algorithms part way through. So I did the inverse (same as normal anyway) and continued.

Nice :tu

Finally we can start getting some big blind results in NZ.
Hopefully!
Congratulations! I got really excited during the final few moves, I loved watching your reaction!
Thank you :)

*soft clap x3*

congrats man!
Haha yeah, I thought I should reward myself.
Hopefully by the next comp I will have memo sorted for d and you may not be the only one completing in big bld
I hope so too. If you, KiwiCuber and I all compete there's a pretty good chance of a success.
