3rd time trying 42 cube multibld, 3rd time getting 38/42 lol. But this time I did it in 1:05:04.75[41:55.34], over 7 minutes faster than the last 42 cube attempt :)

Really happy I broke the sub-1:00 memo per cube barrier (for large attempts), especially considering that I think my memo per cube PB before this was 1:04 ish. I think I should be able to push to sub-hour within a month or two :)

Another thing that I'm kinda happy about: no DNFs from memo errors. The 4 DNFs were
- did a comm backwards by accident
- forgot to undo a single setup move in a comm
- did this again ^^^ for another comm lol
- traced a final 2 edge swap as DF-UF-UR-RU instead of DF-UF-RU-FU. Such a dumb mistake -_-

Official 29.64 3BLD NR single, 24/30 56:39 MBLD, 6:33.97 5BLD.
About MBLD: That's a bad result, especially considering it was a safe attempt with accurate primary memo and reviewing 1-24 2 times. But I am extremely happy to see that my official accuracy improved a lot, it's a pb by 11 points :D. I am motivated to practice it much more seriously, and you may expect something good from me in the future.

Set a goal on 7th october, to get first bld success on 1st november. Got it 30.october. Used OP method. Y-perm for corners and T-, Ja- and Jb-perm for edges. R-perm for parity. Still struggling with memo. Since i'm not native english speaker and in my language z, x, c, w, q, f are very rare, basically used only in very specific terms.. any advice for using different naming for pieces to avoid these letters?

Take time to figure a word/image to use for each, even if it isn’t directly related to those two letters. For example: I use potato for IO because they are grown in IdahO. Potato doesn’t have an i in it, but I know that it represents IO because of the practice I’ve done. You can also use different sounds instead of letters, like replacing X with sh/ch, or replacing Q with th.
 
decided to safety 12 solves and got pb yay
