Doesn't seem that impressive, but what happened was.

Edge Memo:

ME QI WO TF XR

I left out "I" and made it all the way to the end of edges before I realized it. I undid everything back to I, finished it, and redid everything, then did corners and completed the solve... Quite impressed with that.

The rest of the Ao12 was not great:

Very cool! Congrats on catching a mistake and fixing it in situ (during the solve, under time pressure) :)

P.S. Pick-up cycles are AWEsome for that situation :)

Nice! I had the same situation during my first 4BLD success.

9/11 MBLD in 53:30, finally a pb!

Wow, good job! Yesterday I had my first MBLD success (with 2x2s) - 2/2 in 1:23.xx minutes. It should't be too difficult to solve both cubes in under a minute if I tried, but I'm not interested in MBLD.

Been working on reviewing audio edges less, and making sure I only do one pass. I'm also doing at least one corner comm in most solves, if not more.

1:18.59[28.70], DNF(1:28.41)[40.45], 1:28.26[44.27], 1:21.18[33.91], 1:05.41[30.66]

Ao5 = 1:22.68, Mo3 = 1:18.28

1:05 single was full corner comms and probably execution PB, 1 second off PB. Memo was pretty unremarkable for most of them, I consider sub-30 to be notably good memo. Scramble was B2 U L D' R' L' B U2 F' R B2 U2 L2 D' R2 U R2 F2 U B2 R2 but it's nothing special.
 
My first successful Ao12, and I had 16 out of 20 successful solves, and a sub 2 minute solve :D

Best average of 12: 2:58.97
5-16 - 2:05.64 4:01.59 2:18.62 3:40.96 2:39.50 (DNF) 2:51.73 3:23.68 2:38.22 3:26.05 (1:58.13) 2:43.69

Very nice and good job!

Gee, I realise now that my execution is terrible and my memo is good. I consider a sub-20 memo to be "notably good," and 20-35 to be normal.

I also do audio edges, but like this: the first two pairs are part of a continued sentence from corner memo, and the rest is just gibberish.

What method do you use for edges?

(Geez, my font editor is gone! Sorry for the plain Garamond-less font.)

I just use straight up audio pairs, no linking them to corners, then M2 for execution. Also, for what it's worth, I prefer the normal font - it was a bit jarring to have random posts from a thread in a different font for no clear reason.

I use TuRBo for 3BLD and M2 for 4BLD and 5BLD. Maybe you should try linking?

I guess you're right. Since I'm trying to make the switch from TuRBo to commutators, I might as well switch from Garamond to plain.
