Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

30.19[9.98], 27.53[8.82], 30.83[9.02] = 29.52 mo3, first 3 solves in a few days

Kinda getting back into the swing of things... next 5 solves were DNF and slow :p
 
Went over all edge commutator cases and all corners. I don't want to get back into BLDing without reviewing every case (I feel as if I forget stuff every time, and there could be a solve where I forget a comm and rage quit BLD)

Anyway out of the 440 edge cases I remembered them all without any big pause, and the 378 corner cases, I couldn't do 6 (4 of which were UBL-LUF target :()

I consider 812/818 an accomplishment. Took a long time to do this though <_<.
 
Constrict what you memo. I used to do the same thing.

A Alligator
B Batman.

If I was using images to memo, I'd shorten this memorization to AB, which I'd just imagine a pair of hard abs (well it't not possible for AB to happen for me because of my lettering scheme with the pieces but you get the point). If I got HI I'd memorize HItler. You cut your memo in half like that.

Once you become comfortable with memo'ing I'd recommend switching out of using images. For now though until you get at least sub10, you'd be better off just keep doing attempts. Your times will skyrocket down to sub10 within a few solves most likely.

PS-did like 3 solves after me reveiwing everything with the comms (didn't want to do more because I'm tired from it) and got one success (others very very close). 1:22.84[27.34]...My execution is absolutely horrible. So many pauses.
 
And today I got my first 100% success. What a fantastic feeling:) I think the time was about the same as yesterday!
My first bld 3x3 accomplishment!
Finally! After 2 days of experimenting and making a method for corners, (as I was already comfortable with edges after watching Zane's tutorial, thanks a lot for that) I finally did a full blindfold solve: 24:31
First BLD Success today. Yay! I'll post the video when I can.

Congrats to all of you, it's nice to see so many people posting about their first successes :)

I'll do more at work later. Not a bad session, very nice 1:05 :D. Need to get my memo faster ;_;.
 
Just did a 16/19 multi in 55:46.76

Not the best result, but also an accomplishment, because all corners were correct. At my last comp there were 4 cubes with twisted corners also the same at my last try at home. So I´m really happy about this.
2 cubes were off by each a 3-edge-cycle, one off by 2 twisted edges.

It´s the second try with my new memo system. I do memo 2, review these, memo next two, review these, ... After memorizing all but 3 cubes, I review all, then quickly memorize the last 3 and go.
I memorized 16 cubes in 25 minutes, reviewed 7 minutes and memorized the last 3 in 3 minutes. That gives 35 min total.

Not practising is making me better...

Not a particularly easy scramble, memo just seemed to stick a lot more easily than normal :D
