6BLD - 25:09.03 [13:01]

Memo should have been under 8 minutes but I completely failed outer x-center memo and had to keep redoing it like 15 times to find what I was doing wrong
First attempt in a REALLY long time
Done for the weekly competition
3rd success

Started doing BLD again ... sort of. Pretty much learned the first half of my letter pair system now so I can work with that, but still need to learn the other half before I start doing full attempts again. (Think PAO, but with A and O combined into one set). I doubt I'll be back in form by my next comp, but should be by the end of the year, I'm a little busy these days. It's about time I learned actual letter pairs lol.

Corrected my biggest source of DNF on 5BLD and got a pretty sexy mean of 3 today, even if my memo still kinda sucks. And I've upgraded to an AoChuang. That's all for now...

Are you just going to tease us, or will you say what the source of DNFs was and what the MO3 was?

Daily attempts is where it's at.
I know, I stopped practising as much about a week before Christmas.

I go nowhere near the time limit for 3 cubes (I'm consistently under a third of it), but because I almost always DNF, I think I'll use some of the extra time to review my memo, which I do in my head, but I don't check it with the cube. Once I can do 3/3 easily (and hopefully I can do an attempt a day at least), I'll go on to 5, then 7, then 10, focusing on accuracy and not speed. Then maybe a bit of speed once I can do accuracy.
