I got 24:42 almost 3 years ago

Definitely not -- Nitin Subramanian was always OP/OP and has a 1:10 (2014SUBR04). And that's just what I know from experience, there could very well be even faster OP/OP solvers

Thanks! Yeah I plan to go for 12BLD in a month or two. Not sure if I'll ever want to try 13BLD -- probably will be satisfied after getting my first "World's First"

Second person to solve 11x11 Blind :) Also, something I think I'm even more proud of: I now hold all of the non-WCA NxN BLD World Records!!! :)

It mostly just comes from a lot of practice I think. I used to be a lot slower at it but slowly gained confidence after doing hundreds of hours of 6x6+ BLD stuff over the years. I used to have to meticulously count layers but now its more of a muscle memory thing

Yes 95% of the challenge of things like 10x10 blindfolded is making no mistakes in tracing the 16 different types of center pieces, and going through all of execution without making a single mistake with nearly 1k slice moves

Finally finished reconstructing my recent 10BLD WB :) I did it using alg.cubing.net but the link is too long to actually be used to access the full reconstruction so really it was just a tool to allow myself to make sure I reconstructed everything correctly. I also made sure to reconstruct...

My success rate is roughly around 75% usually, this just happened without safetying. I was pretty shocked how many successes I kept getting, I guess I was just especially locked in lol

3bld pb ao50!

The slower i go, the longer it takes me to do the same amount of cubes. The longer memo takes, the more fatigue i have, and the more likely i am to make mistakes. And i dont think going slower really helps anyway. I would just do more interations of reviews. And taking an 8 hour sleeping break...

I was thinking about this after yesterday -- I think 400 would probably be really pushing the limit of what I can handle in one day. Beyond that and I would probably need to memorize a bunch of stuff, sleep on it, and then review everything a bunch and memorize another chunk of cubes the next...

re: why are you doing this feels good :) re: did you eat at all yeah i ate and drank periodically throughout memo, had a bunch of almonds, a clif bar, a belvita bar, a bunch of water and two coffees lol re: are you mentally ok yeah i feel fine aside from the headache haha

Old-Style MBLD WB :) Solved 288 out of 300 attempted in 11 hours, 3 minutes and 44.27 seconds. Memorization was 9 hours, 24 minutes and 57.87 seconds. Largest attempt ever by a 50 cube margin, and I beat WB by 50 points too :D totally did not expect that level of accuracy, given this is my...

a couple big average 3bld PBs -- 19.04 ao25 and 20.43 ao50 :) previous were 19.72 and 21.17 respectively unfortunately the ao50 doesnt quite completely encapsulate the ao25 so i need to do 2 different spoilers lol all box/stackmatted ofc
