Isn't it sub UWR?
Yep, UWR is 19:49. I've had a few sub-UWRs, but I'm just waiting until I actually get it to post a video.
too bad :/
Btw do you still know your memo from the 10 year delayed 3bld solve?
Yeah. I might post in the thread once a year to let people know I still remember it.

7bld 20:31.51[8:03.05]

Had a 45 second pause, and I had to undo 2 comms. Plus there was triple parity. It was a success, but should've easily been UWR.
Nice! I love big cube BLD. Idk why but it just fascinates me. You should try to beat Roman to getting a 10BLD success or 11BLD. I forgot which one hes on

I doubt I'll ever try 10BLD, but anything can happen.
When you say triple parity do you include centers? Because that would mean only 3 out of 9 possible parities
I mean corner/midge, and the 2 wings (which is over 30 seconds down the drain :( )

I don't count centers parities because the last target is just another comm.

4BLD DNF, first attempt with r2, corners were fine, edges were off by an r2 and there were 8 centres, I concluded that I did an extra target at the end of my execution by mistake... (My last target was UB, so I think I repeated that D:)

It was 15 mins with an 8 min memo, faster than my fastest execution with what I was using before.

Such fail, much bad.

I got a 5:37.51 off by a J perm... but it wasn't a Ja perm. I have a video, but internet is awful, so probably won't upload it.

EDIT: Whoop! Finally got another success though, so it's all good!

Worst 3BLD session ever. 5 attempts, 5 failures. All slow and all with more than one mistake. Comp in 11 days. Confidence is low.

I've had worse. :) Just do some practice, try to go slow and turn careful if you need to. Remember the comp is about having fun, so try not to stress too much about your solves. I have a comp the same weekend with 3BLD..
