For the first time, I filmed some bld solves today, and suddenly I got 4:58.33, which is my second best time now.

The video is now on my youtube channel too and is my first cube related video. I guess thats an accomplishment as well :p

I destroyed my 3bld pb, using old pochman. It was about 11 minutes, but I got 6:11 in the weekly comp. I think i'm going to start dedicating myself more to BLD. M2, here I come!

My 5BLD session today :)

1. 16:21.14[9:59] Got lost on center memo...
2. 16:01.95[8:51] And again...
3. 11:21.55[5:45]
4. 9:55.31[4:36] Slow turning! :eek: Memo felt beautiful on this one, normally it doesn't at all... review my letter pair list? U' B R2 F R2 L2 f' L l2 u' B2 F l F' U r f r' F' r F D' b u' d2 f' r' U2 u2 D' r' F2 D2 u d r2 f F2 u' d D2 L F' u2 l d l U2 F r' F' u' f' u R2 D d f r' F'
5. DNF(9:52[4:55])

Accuracy rate was on fire today - I managed to work out that all my errors were coming from rushing center memo and from undoing certain setup moves on particular center cases. The DNF was from an accidental cube rotation - pretty sure I would've solved it if I hadn't done that (looking back over the film.)

Ready for UKO - just need some luck on the day!

WAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
This is CRAZY! I'd say it's my biggest accomplishment in cubing so far.

I GOT A 4/4 MULTI BLD!

The time was 1:07:42.25, which is terribly slow, but I don't care. All four cubes was solved, and nothing else matters to me right now.
This is my fifth multi bld ever. My earlier attempts have been one 0/2 and three 1/2.

Why did I try 4 cubes? Because I have 4 good 3x3s, have 4 "rooms" I'm used to, and I just wanted to see how well I could handle big memorizations.
This is also a huge motivator for me, knowing that with just a faster time, I will be capable of becoming Norways 2nd best multi BLDer.

Some numbers:
Memo: 53ish minutes
Cubes with parity: 1
Twisted corners: 2
Flipped edges: 2
Corner targets: 29
Edge targets: 43

I'M SO HAPPY NOW!

53/100 (53%) success rate on 3BLD. This is actually really good for me, I used to have a less than 25% success rate. And the mean of 53 was 1:33.79, which is great! I'm going to do another 100 BLD's (not all today of course). I'm hoping for a 55%+ success rate as well as a sub 1:30 mean. BLD has never been so fun, when I get DNF's, I feel more motivated to try harder!

How many days did this take you?I might try and see if I can make it before UKO 2012 lol.
