4BLD PB 22min 26.24s (9th success, finally sub-25minutes) :)

My next goal is sub-20min, hopefully I can practice enough to get at least sub-18min before my comp in Feb. At most maybe try to be as fast as Hssandwich.

Scramble:
B2 Rw2 L' Fw U R2 L2 Rw Fw L' F Uw' L2 Fw' Rw' L D' B' Rw Fw2 Uw2 U R F2 Rw B2 Fw2 R2 Uw2 R2 D Fw L2 R2 B F R' L2 Fw F'
 
First MBLD success!
2/2 7:06.88+

Pretty easy memo

Also 2:14.26 3BLD single. Super easy scramble! There were 4 solved edges, only 1 twisted corner, no flipped edges, and no parity!

Haha, well done on your PB! You will find that you will improve very quickly if you do a couple of attempts per day. My PB was 17 minutes about a week ago.

4BLD PB, I didn't realise it was PB until about a minute after lol. 8:22.07, former PB was 8:22.99. I had a letter octuplet, so 4 letter pairs in one, which really helped the memo go faster. It was LEMANOBI, very helpful.
 
I've been learning M2, and just got a semi-success with M2! Edges were off by the two that swap for OP, because I had an odd number of corner targets left (needed to swap two corners). So yeah, got a M2 success in a full solve! Kinda stinks that the whole solve wasn't a success, but take the small victories
 
1:46.76 "Real" Team BLD or BLD Team BLD with this guy

What I mean is like following:
1. Sakari is blindfolded for the whole solve
2. I memo the cube
3. I give cube to Sakari and put down my own blindfold
4. I speak out memo to him as he goes and he executes

The fact that we have different letter schemes and different buffer pieces made this a lot harder than necessary :D

Is UWR Maskows and Jalochas 1:10 or has someone done better?

Yeah me and Sukant did a 59 on cam.. It was lost due to memory card corrupted or some issue :/ We did have a 43 off by the last target as I forgot to speak it :p We shared the same buffers though but had a slightly different edge lettering scheme. Corners were same.

I reckon if Kabyanil and I tried it, we could easily sub 40 and maybe even sub30 as our buffers and lettering schemes are the same ;)

Yeah I thought that sub40 would be reasonably simple for 2 fast people who happen to have same letters/buffers...
 
20th success and finally a sub-20min 4BLD solve:

19min 48.04s

Basically did 4BLD solves more often a day and now I am noticing some improvements (thanks Hssandwich for the tip!!)
 
First 4BLD attempt in like a month, not only was it a success, it was actually a good solve lolwat

1. 2:33.30 L' F U2 Rw2 B' D L F2 Uw' B' Rw2 U' F' L' F2 L2 B R F Rw B U L U' R Rw2 L2 B' D' B Rw2 U' B2 R' L2 Uw2 B2 Uw B' Fw

Memo was about 56. Corner execution was messy so it should've been faster
 
Not bad
Average of 5: 29.19
1. (25.92) U2 L2 U2 F2 R' F' L2 U B D R' F2 U2 B2 R2 U2 R' U2 F2 L' B2 x2

5. 29.50 U2 F2 D' U2 L2 B2 L2 B2 D' L2 U B U L2 D' B R2 D' L' F2 U2 x2 y2
 
first 5BLD attempt on Yuxin and first attempt I started this year: 7:05.50 [~3:22]

time for some serious practice for comp in 3 weeks...

edit: WAT 5:08.99 [1:55] next attempt
