Don't get discouraged, audio is hard. It took me over 5000 solves before I got comfortable with it. It may help if you set certain rules for the phonemes (eg- "a" always sounds like the "a" in "father"). Is there anything in particular that you are struggling with (tracing, coming up with...

The first one is objectively optimal because it is fewer qtm. If we count UD as one qtm (which we should), then [UR'UD:[D2, RU'R']] is 14 qtm while [UR'U':[R'U'R, D2]] is 15 qtm

Part 2 is up!

29/33 in 1:10:19 [50:35/19:44]. First attempt at 33 cubes and I used 32 new rooms. Pretty happy about this since the most cubes I had attempted prior to this was 25.

I'm not sure if his "3-style" falls under the same category of everyone else's "3-style" lol. He also uses a lot more buffers than UF and UFR :P

Yep, Mark sums it up pretty well. These are "guidelines" not "rules that must be followed." The general consensus among top BLDers is those two guidelines and I agree with them because I actually learned 3-style when I averaged around 3 mins. It almost made me quit BLD though, because I wasn't...

Part 1: The Basics Part 2: Speed-Optimization Part 3: Where to go from here (coming soon) I may also make some tutorials on bigBLD comms and advanced 3-style tips and tricks

swap wings. do midges too for 5BLD

3-style

After practicing for over a week and doing more than 100 solves, I finally got a success...Yep, I only got 1 success out of over a 100 solves. Feet blind was much harder than I initially thought because feet turning is imprecise and I couldn't tell if I did an extra move or messed up my...

Yep, just like cubeshepherd said, you can use this for OP/OP. Rooms is just a way to memorize information, it doesn't matter how you execute the info. The information doesn't even have to be cubing related, memory athletes use rooms to memorize 1000s of digits of pi, decks of cards, etc. And...

Hey guys, here's my tutorial on Roman Rooms! Roman rooms, the journey method, the method of loci, and a memory palace all refer to the same thing. This concept is pretty much necessary for bigBLD and MBLD. I also go over a few finer concepts (connecting your first image, handling order mistakes...

After Team Europe's 8-man and 4-man BLD relay UWRs, I figured it was a good time to make a doc to keep track of the records as well as establish some rules. The doc can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ljp5mKzbR34I6Od-l3JmlPD4RgiqeJoJ_n34XIwjvlc/edit?usp=sharing

uh doesn't this require you to know japanese?
