Round 14

3BLD goal 1:05
(1:12.16), (1:01.33), 57.61, (DNF), (1:09.43), 57.54, 59.33, 1:01.07, 55.15, (1:14.89), 1:00.76, (1:09.54) = mean 58.57

4BLD new goal 5:00
DNF, 5:04, 6:06, 5:51, DNF = best 5:04

Should have made it - had to reverse a corner comm mistake right at the end of that 5:04.

5BLD new goal 13:00
DNF, 13:27, DNF, DNF, DNF

Solves #1 and #3 were 12:07 and 12:11 off by two centres each. Either would have been PB. So a fairly promising first stab at my new goal.

MBLD new goal 4/4 in 9:00 for 3 weeks
DNF, DNF, 9:50, 8:36, 11:06 = best 8:36

One of the DNFs was 8:14 - one silly mistake cost me another 20 seconds off PB.

Round 14 Results

Thanks for everyone for competing! Results for round 14 are updated and can be found here (Google Sheets). Different events in different tabs. Please inform me if you find any mistakes.

Sorry for the delay, the week passed fast.

@mark49152 and @Underwatercuber graduated from 3BLD!


Round 15
Racing to sub-x (and other goals for multi) in all the official blindfolded events. Set the goal, and keep it up for three weeks in a row - or 4 weeks out of 5 - in order to graduate and set a new goal. If you take a hiatus, you won't lose your streak. If you are first time racing, or changed your method, please include it to your post as well (no need for that in MBLD though).
_____________
3BLD
Compete an average of 12, like usual. The six worst attempts will be eliminated and the mean of the remaining six is your result for the week. At maximum, you can get 6 DNF:s without losing your average.

4BLD & 5BLD
Compete 5 attempts, the best of them is your result for the round. Not necessary to use all of the attempts though.

MBLD
Generate your own scrambles. You can do three attempts per week if you wish to, the best one is count as your result. 1 hour time limit.

You may set whatever goal you feel like, because multi can get so long-term. You can race to a tough goal, or try to keep up your current level. You can also set time goals if you wish to. The basic rule now is: get your goal once and you've graduated. It's easy to add a cube or try to get faster at the current amount of them. Of course you can specify if you still wish to try and get the goal for multiple weeks in a row; you decide it!
_____________

New round up every Friday. Good luck at blindsolving! :)
And again, full results can be found here
