When you use OP, you switch the permutation of 2 pieces, and then switch them back once you cycle another piece. If you cycle an odd number of pieces, you have parity which you can fix with an Ra permutation.

Sorry I updated my question. I don't understand how to remember the 3 colors of the conor, I understand how I can remember where the cornor is on the cube, but not how the 3 colors are orintated

The "cornor" is shaped like a square or cube, as it is regardless of whether you can see it or not.
I understand that but, how do you know how the 3 colors of the cornor are orintated just by memorizing a picture? It's confusing.

I suggest you watch videos on the method and study it more. You do not need to memorize the orientation of a corner...you simply need to memorize the letter/information about the single sticker of that piece and memorize it with the other pieces you are cycling.
But this is what confuses me with that. If you simply memorize where the cornor is placed on the cube, but not how the colors are orintated. Then the cornor will 66% be twisted when you have swapped it with the buffer.
I understand that you memorize 20 pieces by using images in your head with letter pairs. edges and conors seperately. I understand how you can memorize if a edge is flipped. But I do not understand how you can memorize if the cornor is twisted, because IF the cornor is twisted, it can be twisted in 2 different ways. How do you know which one of those 2 ways it is twisted? It really confuses me!

Ok, all you need to recognize is one sticker. Let's say your orientation is yellow on top - I am looking at the UFR corner and everything is permuted, but not oriented:
1. If that yellow sticker is on the F face, I need to twist it clockwise because it has been twisted anti-clockwise.
2. If that sticker is on the R face, vice versa.
You can memorize it visually, or if it helps you can give it a 0 for corners that need twisting clockwise and a 1 for corners that need twisting anticlockwise. Or the letters A and B, whatever's easier for you.

Wow that was a really good help thank you!

When your buffer piece is in it's spot, but it is flipped (so the buffer sticker isn't correct), do you break into a new cycle?

I can solve 3blind, but it takes so long I never feel like doing it.
any possible motivation you can think of would help. (I know it's a weird question, but thanks in advance)

quite simply, yes. if its the very last piece and its flipped you did something wrong (as long as you mean 3BLD)

What happens if you get multiple +2s in MBLD and it goes over the limit?
e.g. 9/9 in 59:59.99 and three cubes were +2.

Just think of how freaking COOL it is.. you can solve a rubiks cube with your memory.

Both for 333bf - one image for edges, audio sounds for corners

Simple question, how should I switch from 3OP to comms for corners? I'm thinking of getting comfortable with OP first. What is a decent corners only time if I aim for sub 1? And what about edges only?

so it's possible for someone to get a time over the one hour limit?

Yes.
