3/14 people left to submit their videos for season 3, the project is running late than expected yo.

 

[abunickabhi]

12/13 people have submitted. I am currently editing alg sub-titles to the video.

In the meantime, I wanted to appreciate two really fast 5BLD results which are WR1 and WR2 yo.

Running a bit late in publishing Season 3. Sorry for the delay.

If only I was fast enough to make it, *cries in 13 mins*

 

[Spencer131]

It's cool to see the amount of preparation going into this. It's gonna be epic

 

[abunickabhi]

I am still not done adding alg subtitles to the videos, this project took the entire 2023 to complete because of my work commitments yo.

Also 2023 was the year I prepare for my marriage and take a break from cubing. This project took a big hit because of this. But it will be released one day for sure, hopefully by 2024 summer.

What is the criteria to be an intermediate 5BLDer? I might want to join if I qualify

A BLD record of some sorts, NR or CR.

I do not think state records count

I have all BLD records in a Discord server (DSRs), does that count? lol

To be honest, I think CR is a ridiculous criteria for an intermediate solver. And NR is extremely dependent on the country. For example an American breaking NR in 5BLD would be world class(and this would actually be a world record), not intermediate. Shouldn't there be a time boundary?

Sadly it does not, if you get sub-5 global in 5BLD, do let me know!

Yes NR is quite variable, I guess a time of sub-5 for advanced 5BLD
and sub-10 for intermediate 5BLD are good markers.

I average about 18 minutes (as you can see from my official results, my mo3 successes is around 18:25), but I am still trying to get better. probably gonna learn Orozco corners for 3bld soon, but idk if I have time

Okay, good luck improving.

Always good to start getting advanced from 3bld and then move onto 5bld.
