Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

[Ville Seppänen]

Damn again! Got nonlucky 31.34 3x3x3 BLD. The UWR is 31.28. It had 2 corners and 2 edges solved. It would've been UWR if I did R' instead of M'L' in the end. Oh well, nice time anyway. I also had 2 other sub40s today, out of less than 10 solves.

6s memo one sec for each face. 20s execution...
or you'll start doing 'speed BLD', work out the whole solution in 10s and execute it in 10s...
with enough practice

I hope you're kidding about everything else except the 6s memo thing.
Pretty much noone memorises faces in BLD, and it would be slower anyway.
I have had sub20 executions before.
You just can't work out a speedsolving solution in 10s (unless it's really really lucky scramble).

Wow man you are a beast!! You will get the UWR soon!

I got the world record! 54.06. I also got 57.19 which had parity. There was nothing easy in these scrambles.

first time someone ever came here and talked about their WR lol

 

[Ville Seppänen]

well sorry.

 

[pjk]

Congrats Ville!

 

[Derrick Eide17]

well sorry.

why sorry? i was just mentioning it though.
Congratulations on your World Record

 

[Mike Hughey]

Congratulations, Ville!!!

I bet you were the first sub-minute solver who was probably genuinely disappointed with the result, though. I expected sub-50.

who has the uwr?

 

[Faz]

who has the uwr?

rowe hessler - 31.26

 

[shelley]

who has the uwr?

What makes you ask that question? Did you actually want to know, or were you quizzing us? If the former, don't be lazy, look it up yourself. If the latter, I think you owe fazrulz a prize.

I wonder what my limit will be.

Zero seconds, you'll develop the ability to do BLD without inspection!

I was really tired last night when writing that, so never mind And thanks!

Congratulations, Ville!!!

Thank you! I did expect sub-50, but of course I am really happy about this result as well. I was nervous all day before that event, hands cold. I don't think this record will last long though.

lol yeah im kidding...
sub 20s execution with BLD is ridiculous... im barely sub 20 with fridrich.
& yeah i reckon you should go for <4s memo for corners, <6s memo for edges, 18s execution... voila! (U)WR
well done on your new record by the way. not many people can say theyve had an official world record in something
and yes, of course working out a speedsolving solution in 10s is impossible...


unless you have a quad core CPU and lots of RAM for a brain

I think that's quite unnecessary.
You don't need any more than a single core with a MHz, and a few KB of RAM.

Finally tried BLD again. I had one complete trial on the bus, and it was a success. M2 (syllable memo) edges, visual classic Pochmann corners.
I guess it's 4-6 minutes.

I also tried the corners and edges separately several times too. I'm getting used to the new memo styles.

Sounds good. I just did 2 more BLD solves this morning. That's 26 successful since I started nearly 2 months ago. But mine are still way too slow. I might switch from 3OP (with numbers for pieces) to classic or M2 (or freestyle?) with a story method for memo.

 

[cookingfat]

what times do you get, rjohnson?

 

[rafal]

Ville, congrats on the WR! I’ve seen the video – very nice, calm solving. And my record lasted long enough anyway…

Mike – nice improvement on 5x5 bld! It’s under WR out of a sudden. Now you will see such times regularly. It just works that way.
I have also seen your video, in which you are doing blindfold while juggling. I practiced it for few days and got my first success today – it took me 5:04. Very interesting event.

Thanks Rafal! I'm still doubting I'm really that fast, but I can tell there's been a sudden big improvement - all of a sudden sub-18 seems almost expected and anything above that feels slow, even though I pretty much never got a time like that before. Now if I could just get this to transfer over to 4x4x4 BLD; I don't know why I'm still so slow on that.

Congrats on the juggling BLD success. It's nice that you're always up for my crazy events. Do you juggle? (Other than the 2 in one hand, I mean.)
