Péter Trombitás 1:46.63 Hungary Hungarian Open 2009

Mike! Slash! Are you proud of each other?! ;)

Well of course I'm proud of him! He couldn't have matched a better time. :D

Wow, I haven't seen it before:)
Mike, tell me if you beat this time, and I'll try to match this time(so please do a solve under the Hungarian NR:))
and I'm looking forward to match your 4x4, 5x5 and multi BLD results;))

nowai, you just go for the bigcubes NRs and have a nice fight with István, leave alone 3x3bld events for me :D

practising multi a bit:
7/7 in 19:10 (11:56)
wow. just wow. the last attempt with 10 cubes definitely helped in decreasing the memo time. I had a half minute delay on the 5th cubes cormer memo, excluding that recall was just perfect. I refreshed once after 3 cube, and after 6, both went perfectly on first try. I'm so going to do 7/7 in my next competition and start going for 10! :D

That is so good. (I just tried seven too, but in 58 minutes, that's a difference :))
(and I got only four :()

I agree with you, Zava. wow. just wow. That's fast enough that if you can get it to scale, you could eventually go for 20! I just did 4 in that time this week. Certainly the WR is very much within your reach.

thanks everyone:) but Mike I'm sure I can't go for WR. some reasons:
-for me it's impossible to get it to scale. multi bld for me is not a linear thing, I don't have a constant for time/cube. for 3/3 it's like 1:30-2:00 for one cube, for 7/7 (from this go-fast attempt it's like) 2:45, for 10/10, I only did one attempt (maybe this sunday... ;) ) it was ~52 minutes, so 5:10-5:15... the thing is I still don't have a multi bld memo method. I just use my normal bld memo a multiple times, and well, fused with visual (when recalling I don't recite the memo, just tap/point at the pieces) I use the same 3-4 words for every edge, and use 1-8, 10-80, a-h for corners...it is OK for these smaller attempts (like 7 cubes) but not good for WR amount.
-don't know why but in BLD I'm much slower in competition than at home. pressure? I don't know. from this 19:10 will be like a 30+ min 7/7 in competition, because of this competition-slowness and making sure I memo well (I just want to have the NR with 7 cubes right now)
-I'm too lazy to practise :D

Amazing. Must require more than a bit of practise. I can do a whole 3 cubes in that time at the moment

thanks, but really I don't practise this event that often. I don't know when was my last attempt (10/10 ~52 min), but definitely not this year. I'll check it for you ;)
edit: yeah, I've searched, last multi (excluding 1-2 silly 3 cube attempts) was done on the 21th of decembre.

I know what caused me this sudden bld time drop! the blindfold I got as a christmas/birthday present, sewed by a friend of mine :D

I've been doing some 5x5BLD the last couple of days. Never gotten a success. But I got 28,24,21 minutes with not a whole lot wrong. And just now I got 17:10 with 5 centers off, two + and three x. Memo was 7 mins. When I do get my first success I hope it's sub 20.

Wow, great times with so little practice! Really good memo time.

7min is fast memo, but 17:10 isn't a fast solve. Come on, you can execute faster than that. :P

Amazing!

These days I've been practicing multis with my friends, they are:
- Iril Khairul Anam : capable of 12/16 in 57 minutes
- Aldo Feandri : capable of 10/12 in 60 minutes
- Arif Yulian Nur : capable of 10/12 in 68 minutes

And there are also Chilwin Theodoroes, Glenn Rumindo, Riadi Arsandi, Wiryawan Kuncoro and other cubers which capable of doing more than 6 cubes in 1 hour. Indonesian cubers are somewhat inspired to practice multi BLD more.

And we'll be going to Jakarta Open in January 30-31, 2010.

This is gonna be interesting :)

I know. But I've ever only done 6 attempts. And I still sometimes turn the wrong slice. I just have to get used to a couple of things.
 
Did my very first speedblind-try, which failed. I was so close, but I made one mistake in the last f2l, so last layer was all messed up.

I did use a scramble I knew was alright for speedbld, the one that Tyler Vond used for his time on speedcubing.com - D L2 B2 L2 R2 F2 R2 U2 R2 D' U' R' B F L' D R2

Yes, it was a 2x-cross in 10 moves, but I don't know how much that helped, but probably a lot. 57 moves htm.

I don't know when I will try this again, but some day. The bad thing is that this is almost dependent on a good scramble. This one would have counted as lucky.

The time was around 30 seconds, since I didn't really care about it, and played it very safe.
