I tried multiblind solving for the first time and I successfully solved 2/2 cubes \o/. Took me 39 minutes (27 for memorisation, 12 for solving), but that's because I had trouble coming up with images for my letter pairs. (I just started BLD two weeks ago and haven't done many solves so I come across new letter pairs everytime I solve)

It's really a good feeling to see both cubes solved after opening your eyes .

Is there a better way to handle corner twists? After having typed them out they seem very long even though they are fast.

 

[newtonbase]

I tried 2BLD as practice for OP corners and solved my first proper attempt. It didn't help that someone on TV started reading out a list of letters as I was doing my memo but I got there. I'm learning VERY slowly so I'm very pleased to have achieved this minor feat.

[NewCuber000]

Got my first and second 3BLD successes this weekend.
Solve 1: 19:58
Solve 2: 13:46

I was very careful on my first solve. I was planning to learn Old pochman corners/ M2 edges, but I wanted a success so bad I switched to full Old pochman for the day I didnt really know how to do edges, but I knew you could use the Tperm for it so you can pretty much figure it out from there. I'm horrible at edges, I average like 2-2:30 for corners only (memo plus solve)

Wow, nice solving Ollie and Cale!

 

[JemFish]

Did 20 3BLD solves, and only got 5 successes. There was a streak of 10 DNFs at the end which was annoying.

Also, I got my first sub-2 3BLD solve, but it was a DNF with 3 wrong edges.

Oh, and I finally figured out what I was doing wrong with TuRBo - every time - when there was parity...

decided to push my memo beyond what i thought was capable, get a scramble where the memo wouldn't fumble and the targets were easy to execute, managed to get an incredibly fast solve

 

[JemFish]

Broke my 3BLD PB by about 8 seconds, and a couple solves later by another 8 seconds: 2:04.90 minutes. So close to sub-2!

Also, I did a session of 5 3BLD solves, and had 3/5 accuracy, which was nice. Everything was sub-3, yay!

Nice. You and I could race, me 3BLD and you 4BLD, and get similar times. I like 4BLD the best, even though I haven't had a single success yet...
