Abhijeet's Progression Thread | 1/7 BLD NRs, 6 more NRs to get and hold | 100 points official in MBLD

[abunickabhi]

Changed my playlists a bit to get more focused direction in my practice routine.

I still want to actively pursue my goals of getting 100 points in MBLD and sub-2 5BLD.

Finally improved in kilominx after 5 years.

I should buy the new Diansheng kibiminx. This one feels big, and not accurate in turning as it is not magnetic.

I have 2 upcoming official MBLD attempts on 23 and 25 August. I want to use new locations for these attempts, I have 2 weeks in hand. I hope I am not risking too much with new locations. I am tired of memo not sticking with my current artificial rooms, I want train routes to work, I am guessing they will be more intuitive.

Sharing the maps I will be using here, FTR:

This is a progression in getting my mind blown. I cannot comprehend this puzzle was constructed, a 49x49.

It takes 25 hours to do the checkerboard pattern yo.

I am extremely bad in official mean of 3 in MBLD.

First of all I have only done seven mo3 in the last 11 years, and out of that my PR is 3 points mo3 and the rest of the 6 times I have a DNF mean

Graham has the current UWR for mo3 by miles!

Is my current posting rate that much lower than yours that you will really overtake me in 2 years?

If so, maybe I'd better step it up.

Yes you can step it up!

Also make sure all the ~2 million people who solve a Rubik's cube, enjoy SS and interact with it!

 

[abunickabhi]

I solve this basket every Tuesday when SS weekly comp refreshes!

15 puzzle is kept in my other home so I am missing doing ao5 of it for the past few months.

 

[abunickabhi]

Finally sub-10, now I have to try to get sub-10 in 3BLD yo, first sub-10 in 3BLD exec and then memo+exec.

 

[abunickabhi]

Sub-1 next comp for sure!

 

[abunickabhi]

Finally a moderator for BSG group. I hope I do a good job.
Generally I have an impression among western online cubers that I try to seek attention. This is completely false, I hope I can project a more likeable attitude and do a good job.

Nice, almost 2 seconds faster than me. For the 4th pair did you predict the good OLL and that's why you didn't sledge the pair?

turns out sledging the 4th F2L pair gives a nice pi-ZBLL. I could have done that, I guess I did not think much during the solve. It is when I am mindlessly solving that I get a PB haha!

8000 messages in 10.5 years, super slow yo!

For this case it worked out well, but you should probably always sledge if it forces a ZB. Coming from a sub 15 solver though so might be wrong.

4 upcoming comps for me in 3 countries!
