-------------------

triple post, wut, this:

your session is sub24 and over 50%, at about 25 solves... but then you get 10 dnfs in a row with only one success, of 26.x seconds... then you keep failing all your 22s by 1 wrong move and now your session says 17/38 24.15

To flip DF and DB I just use the standard alg for opp but with M' and D Moves

I need a slight regrip for this one to work. Do you think that's better than doing M2 then the regular alg? That allows for a minor cancelation, so not too bad IMO.

That is what I do. M (U M')3 U2 (M' U)3 M.

Oh duh. I forgot about that one lol. ;p

Shameful DNF. Not about the result itself, but more like about my duuuuuuumb execution.

Nerves might have played a minor role, but in no way I'll use them as an excuse. My overall execution is bad and I should feel bad.

So, yeah. I'm already back at working on my corner comms, and trying to improve my TPS during edges in the meantime.

Lol, I went to a comp last weekend and had 2 DNFs and then a 1:02 with a 20 second pause lol. My pb in comp is only 57. I practiced so long and hard I should have gotten at least a sub-40.
I've been thinking about how in the world I did soooooo badly. I think it was just nerves and the inability to concentrate ;p
I decided that I'm going to start to walking up to people and just doing a bld solve since I usually get more butterflies doing that then in comp lol.

 

[G2013]

Memo PB! DNF was because of overspamming TPS lol, I completely messed up the 3rd last comm xd

1. DNF(18.437)[6.04] 6/10 8 algs B2 D F2 U2 B2 U' B2 R2 D2 F D B2 L F U R' F' U' R Rw2 Uw'

76 moves in 12.39 seconds = 6.13 TPS

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

close one, fastest exec by a lot. Off by 3+ and 2x centers, probably messed up a comm as the memo was quite strong on this one. also first sub10 whcih lookes like it was almost solved lol

9:32.62 F2 L2 Bw' L2 B' Dw' L' B2 Bw' Uw2 Rw' Bw' Lw B' D R B F2 Uw' R2 U2 F2 Dw Uw2 L' Fw Bw Dw Lw' F' U D B' Fw' R' L F2 Bw2 Lw' L' Fw R Rw F' L2 F' B2 Uw2 R' L Fw' Uw2 D2 Dw2 B Bw2 Fw Uw' L2 Dw

ez scramble, too.

3:22.65, 4:04.97, 4:04.19 = 3:50.60

I messed up +center memo on the last one and wasted around 15 seconds. PB is mean is 3:47

Also Had a 3:22 earlier where I did 2 extra wing comms (PB is 3:19)

Crazy stuff.
I hope you meant to post this in the "Blindfold Accomplishments" thread

Thanks. I did mean to post it here because they were PB fails I guess

Made a mistake during the second-last corner comm, the rest was fine
I think this is my fastest attempt so far.

 

[sigalig]

PB is still 57 (((( 3 stupid obliques

 

[sigalig]

sorry double post but omg this is hugebld hell.
DNFed a 33:58 8bld the try after the one above ^^^^ this time by 2 obliques lol

Wow, that is really bad! Good luck next time, and remember: you can't DNF by one oblique!

 

[cubeshepherd]

I just did a 10 cube MBLD attempt, but I only got 8/10. The reason for this post in the BLD failure thread is because the only piece that I forgot to solve on both cubes was the "bld" corner . Had I remembered how to solve them "bld" it would have been 10/10. Also, memo was pretty slow.
