Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

I have joined the dark side and I will be studying the dark arts to master the ability to solve the 3x3x3 blindfolded. I just succesfully did step 1.

Step 1. Write down all the letters to solve all the corners and then read all the letters back and solve the corners. All sighted.

I already feel pretty accomplished with that because this alone took me 5 hours.

This time I did the letters and such without looking at the cube. Success. Maybe that's step 2? :)

Just did a MBLD attempt, the total result was pretty disappointing (felt like it could have been PB before taking my blindfold off), but the memo was suuuuper good for me and really consistent, I'm really proud of how well I focused throughout this. So I'm gonna document the splits here:

memo+review 1-8: 2:44
memo+review 9-16: 2:41
review 1-16: 2:06
memo+review 17-24: 2:55
memo+review 25-32: 2:53
review 17-32: 2:11 (15:30 for 1-32 pass :))
review 1-32: 4:48 (20:18 1-32 4pass!! PB by like a minute i think)
memo+review 33-40: 2:58
memo+review 41-48: 2:50
review 33-48: 2:12
memo+review 49-64: 6:20
memo 65: 0:14

Proud of pretty much every split here

The mo6 for all the 8 pack memo+reviews was 2:50 (I think this is my first time ever doing all of the 8 pack memo+reviews sub-3:00), and I averaged 8.33 seconds/cube for each individual review in the bulk reviews (i.e. 1-16, 17-32, 1-32, 33-48)

And then a 14 second 3bld memo to boot! It's obvious pretty insignificant but I usually do like 20 seconds for 3bld, so I'm happy about that

16:00.00 official 4bld success. Really slow because it was my last attempt and I went safe.
9/9 , 11/13, 11/13 official multis.
Still missing a 5bld success for all events.
