In the buffet car queue on the Eurostar coming back from the World Championships a couple of young women saw me cubing. One of them asked for the cube to mix up and told me that I was to look at it once and then solve it with my eyes closed as she'd seen it done on some program about geniuses. I'm not normally comfortable doing blind on command but something about their good looks and the beer I'd had made me say OK. The solve was pretty quick for me and I opened my eyes to an ovation from dozen or so people. Absolutely made up for my 3 DNFs in comp.

7:21.10, 7:09.09, 8:05.88 = 7:32.02 5BLD mean of 3 :D
First mo3 since my first one ever which was 14:55 lol. Really really proud of this accuracy. Oh and the 7:09.09 is PB single also.

Edit:

Edit #2:
Just a nice thing I noticed, after that mo3 my last 10 5bld attempts make a 5/10 session with a 7:31.96 overall mean :)

Edit #3 lolololol:
Did another solve the next day, 7:03.20 PB single which rolled the mo3 to 7:26.06 and gave me a 7:32.02 ao5 :D

4BLD DNF 33[20]
Super causal attempt. Wasn't trying to go fast at all.

HNI_0026.JPG
But come on!
This is the second time I've been off by two centers.

Really easy scramble, no cycle breaks in wings, corners had a 5cycle + an Aperm. Centers already had 6-7 pieces solved.

Calling this an accomplishment even though DNF because I haven't practiced big bld in months, and this is the first time I've used centers comms instead of U2.

5BLD: DNF(1:37.34[1:10])

Off by a bit, but only because I didn't undo one set up move (r) during xcenters. I realized the mistake halfway through +centers, and just felt depressed for the rest of the solve. Exhausted too, because I had taken so long to memorize and review the cube to make sure that I would get a success.
And I'm almost glad that I DNFed my 4BLD attempt earlier, as I know remember that I wanted a 5BLD success first. Luckily, the weekly competition has two more 5BLD scrambles.

I was a little worried about using comms for +centers, since they seem a bit weird to me compared to xcenters. But +center comms are just as easy and about as fun! I'm almost tempted to learn comms for normal 3BLD and wings, but I'm not insane yet. Gosh, I've got to finish ZBLL first!

No more Big BLD non-success-posts here. My next post here will be a 5BLD success :)!
