Wow, another sudden crazy ao12. So close to sub-45 and pure sub-50. Counting 38 is real cool

MBLD: 14/17 1:36:46 [1:11:13]

First attempt at more than 13 cubes, and second attempt at more than 11. Also first multi attempt since Great British Blind Off in January. DNFs were a flipped edge, a twisted corner, and a messed up Y-perm.

6/10 MBLD in 50:35 from the weekly competition. The result is really bad, but my mistakes were all due to exec (2 inv comms, 1 move, and 1 wrong edge flip alg). This is a huge leap for me, as I tend to have lots of recall mistakes, so having none is great.

I plan on trying 12 soon, as I'm getting annoyed that I haven't gotten 10 points yet.

38.08 PB2 3BLD single that I got in a comp sim

First 7 alg scramble, so I'm somewhat pleased with this. Scramble in your orientation to see how dumb this scramble is lol

Really good times today. Here are the highlights:
36.86 PB2 3BLD single (beat the 38 that I posted earlier)
48.46 PB mo3 (first sub 50)
51.88 PB ao5 (PB by 6 seconds)

The 36 single and 48 mo3 were in the 51 ao5

Bittersweet, as I almost got a really good ao12 (needed 2 more successes out of 3 solves, messed up all 3)

sub 50 global coming soon

woohoooo N/N


46.67 mo3, 46.67 ao5, 41.20 ao12 as well :)
My last 12 attempts:

53/56 0:59:00.00
46/54 0:59:25.00
46/56 1:01:04.00 (1 solved over the hour)
51/56 1:01:01.00 (3 solved over the hour)
40/56 0:58:39.00
43/56 1:01:24.00 (3 solved over the hour)
51/56 0:58:40.00
50/56 0:59:40.00
49/50 0:58:58.00
(edit: i should note i did an attempt here that I decided to disqualify cus there was basically a full blown party at my house that erupted right after I started the attempt and went on until the end of the attempt, seems reasonable to disqualify it because i think it would qualify for an extra if it was official lol)
47/52 1:00:12.00 (1 solved over the hour)
52/56 0:57:45.00
52/52 0:59:05.00

A counting 24 pointer, but also a counting 50 pointer lol

It's not often that I have something that feels worthy of posting in here lately, but this definitely does.

I really went for it on this week's Weekly Competition for 5BLD, and got a new PB mean and single. And the mean beat my previous best mean by over a minute and a half!

1. 10:38.39[5:32.34]
2. 10:11.03[5:25.29]
3. 10:34.41[5:36.61]

Sub-10 can't be far away!

Broke my 3BLD PB single by just a tiny bit on this week's forum comp.

2:51.964[1:30.362] (late 2017, probably) → 2:48.62[1:05.70]

Scramble #1: U L' R' U' L' B2 L R' B2 L D' F2 D' R D U' F2 R2 F2 Rw' Uw2
Scramble wasn't particularly good from an alg count perspective (lots of cycle breaks + two twisted corners), but it was relatively easy to memo, partly because all of the edges were oriented (as in, oriented for ZZ).
