New 4x4BLD PB: 10:08.93 [4:20.04]. 2nd weekly comp scramble. Just can't get that execution any faster!

That is very good. Do not say you can't. You can.

How do you solve kinchyboy?

For once somebody comes up with a nickname I haven't heard before! Commutator centres, r2 edges and 3OP corners. Tim Sun said that he executes in 2:30 with exactly that, but my centres and edges by themselves each take that long! I can see room for improvement in the centres...but that will only come with lots of practice of course!

wat 3OP is megalame.

We'll have a look at Benelux (I think), or Bristol. I wanna see it in practice.

There are also some r2 improvements, I think, well just the same as M2 improvements.

Rowan told me to stick with 3OP. I just tried a solve using BLD method with my eyes open and got 5:16, which is only 30 faster than with my eyes closed. Perhaps it's just pure finger speed I need to work on.

Hey, I thought I said you should do TuRBo
Anyway, whatever you do, listen to Joey

Hmmm...I probably just forgot. I think I thought that because I suggested R2 and you said it wasn't a great method.

You'll beat me if you do a couple more events, like feet or MTS.

Rowan is nub at bld :3

Not really a blindfolded accomplishment, per se, but... 1:52 4x4BLD execution.

Wow - going after Ville?

Very impressive.

11:45 5x5BLD. Nah, going for something else.

yarp. If I knew how to memo then maybe I wouldn't be, I enough bloody methods!

 

[Yes We Can!]

23:47.70, 26:32.69, (DNF), (17:57.93), 22:29.31 = 24:16.57

These were my last 5 4x4 BLD solves and I somehow managed to get 4 out 5 successes
I remember, when I tried really hard, to get a 3x3 BLD average of 5, it was really hard. Now I got a 4x4 BLD avg5 without even really trying

EDIT: This totally deserves to be my 800th post on the forums

That's okay - that's what "going after" means - you're still trying to catch him. Good to see you're making progress.

And that really is an amazing solve. Congratulations.

Someday, I'll be as good as you. Problem is that by then, everyone else will be too, since it will probably take me several more years.

You should at least try the scramble first... Ville got a 3:03 on it.

Very good for me, but not spectacular, and a long way from you: 7:08.63. I messed up tracing the edges when memorizing, though. I have to stop doing that somehow.
