SICK, really sick....

I just got my 2nd sub-2 ever!!! my first one was 1:43.
this one was super-lucky edges though ^^
4 edges were in place XD and I didn't have to do new cycles Can you get much more lucky? :O

D B2 F D' U F U2 L2 U L2 B R L' B' L R D F2 U' B2 U' L2 B U2 F

1:22.24

That is amazing... That is amazing.
I don't know what to say.
I think it's pretty fast for Old Pochmann, but good BLDers can get sub-40 with it I think (or even faster)

My 3 best times:
1.) 1:22.24
2.) 1:43.50
3.) 2:20.00

 

[Kian]

5/5 MultiBLD 38:35.35 First 5/5. First attempt, too.

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

5/5 MultiBLD 36:48.84 First 5/5. Second attempt

 

[Cuber3]

First success with visual memo. 12:45.

I know, I'm slow but I think that is my PB because I hardly practice BLD.

Now, I'll try MultiBLD.

Come on, practice. Now Paul's left, Matt needs some more competition. GET SUB 2!

Third times the charm =D

20:43.68 4x4 BLD
12 minute memo

My first 4BLD success everrrrr
I used Alberto Bosia's 2 cycle method for centers *learning commutators almost killed me*, r2 and my normal method for corners. Had edge and corner parity.

ZB_FTW!!! - I'm working on it:

9:07 3x3 BLD (new PB, broken twice today)

 

[Googlrr]

Not much of an accomplishment for most, but I got my first successful 3x3x3 BLD! It took 16 minutes :<

It's still pretty exciting to take of the blindfold and see a solved cube. It was a good feeling.

Not much of an accomplishment for most, but I got my first successful 3x3x3 BLD!

I think solving the cube blindfolded for the first time is a HUGE accomplishment for everyone.

I know, I jumped up and down and kissed the floor :rolleyes:

I know it's stupid simple to do, and it's silly that I never did this before, but I finally did a pyraminx BLD tonight. My first successful solve was 3:15.57, after 4 or 5 DNFs. Done with simple 3-cycle, no speedBLD (well, except for the tips).

It's kind of fun - maybe I'll work at it a little and get better at it. It would mean one more event I could do each week for the weekly competition. Perhaps I'll learn BH for pyraminx - it shouldn't be that hard.

Edit: Second successful solve: 2:26.27.

I just got my 2nd successfull Multi BLD
First one was at Aachen Open 2010 and done in 15:45 minutes.

This time it took 10:20 2/2
Not a single piece was solved by the scramble

 

[SimonWestlund]

I got some pretty nice BLD PBs today

2:37.37, DNF(2:07.55), 2:25.63, DNF(2:15.41), 1:56.50, 1:40.40, 1:58.12, 2:19.55, 2:52.29, 2:34.41, DNF(2:20.97), DNF(2:08.65)

That's todays session. 8/12 solved.

Single: 1:40.40
mo3: 1:51.67
avg of 5: 2:04.72

 

[Zane_C]

I havn't acheived much, but I finally ended my 6 or so 3x3x3 DNF streak.

 

[Yes We Can!]

Multi BLD 2/2 in 9:17.
Stackmatted

I want to do 3 cubes!

 

[peterbat]

New 3x3 bld pb: 1:45.99

My first successful sub-2!

 

[Cuber3]

3x3 BLD PB 5:38.

Getting better.

 

[KConny]

YES! I did it! 5x5BLD. First success ever. The time was 19:29.12. It had all kinds of parity.

 

[Mike Hughey]

YES! I did it! 5x5BLD. First success ever. The time was 19:29.12. It had all kinds of parity.

Wow - that's an amazing first success time. Congratulations!

 

[DavidWoner]

I hadn't done any BLD in a long time, but my first 3 solves tonight were 2:03.98, 2:13.38, 2:12.70 which I guess is not bad. Then I stopped 3 seconds into memo on the fourth one because I got bored. All the executions were about 50s, even with some bad pauses during edge recall. FII
