Camera sucks. Lagged like hell. And my computer just hanged and crashed at the end of the solve so I don't have the scramble anymore. The crashing part isn't in the video because everything that was connected to the computer crashed along with it.

Ah boy/girl, put this on the other forum for me when you see this.

Don't know if this is a coincidence but, when I clicked play on the video, my browser crashed. Lol. I thought you quitted BLD... Nice solve anyway!
 
I did. But I started BLDing again last week. Something tells me you've gotten times like that before.

1:12.xx
But it was yikai who smsed me and asked me to try that particular "easy" scramble.. 2:13.13 is my non-lucky PB...

Need you to guide me along for BLD :rolleyes:
 
Very nice! It looks like your computer was busy working on something else, hence the big stops in the middle of the solve on the timer too. So odds are the 1:02.82 is closest to accurate. It's pretty safe to say the proper time was probably somewhere between 1:01.99 and 1:02.82, so it's probably close to correct, anyway.

You're so much faster than me now - I wonder if I'll ever be able to get a time like this.
 
@Mike: That was lucky, I think, I don't even know the definition of lucky, and there probably isn't a very precise/accurate definition for it anyway. My second best is 1:13 or something like that, I don't quite remember but it was probably lucky as well. And the rest of the "good" non-lucky solves are 1:20~1:30-ish, so I'm nowhere near as good as this video might suggest :p

@Phil, amateurguy: Didn't put on a blindfold :p I just close my eyes at home. And since I'm not publicizing this on YouTube or anything, I don't think that matters much because there won't be ignorant laymen accusing me of cheating. So I guess you can add a second or two to my time for pulling down the blindfold, but I don't really care, it was a lucky solve anyway.
 
^Yeah, I trust you on that since your M2 looked very legit and you weren't attempting to 'peek' at the DF buffer piece. Oh, by the way, I'm starting to implement your 3-cycle technique for M-slice edges (that you posted in the 'Improvements for M2/R2' thread) in my BLD method. Really neat stuff there!

Go Malaysian BLD-ers!
 
Well actually so far I haven't used any of my suggested "improvements" (I prefer the term "modifications", because whatever I've suggested may not necessarily have improved the original M2, it's really quite subjective).

By the way, there's really no need to umm... explain why you trust me. Lots of people look legit when they cheat, and attempts to peek could easily be masked by doing slight adjustments to the camera angle, so I could just be a very skillful cheater ;)

The fact that I posted it up here means I wouldn't be dumb enough to cheat and post it up here and show it to the whole world. So believe it if you want, but I really couldn't care less if some people don't believe me (this isn't targeted at anyone, don't worry), because I don't have to prove anything to anyone. Yep :)
 
CHEATER!! Just kidding. So funny when the com started hanging. After watching you doing M2 I feel like doing M2. That's how good you look with M2. I might give it a try.

When can we meet up? Are you free on weekdays?
