Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

[PenguinsDontFly]

I try to learn a new sticker every day after doing a big-ish session, although I didn't learn anything over the weekend or leading up to the comp to be safe.

wtf a sticker a day?! im like a month in and im not even done my first stciker! (but to be fair, i'm usually half asleep and dead tired when I practise so im rarely in the mood for learning new comms)

 

[Torch]

ahaha, I don't think you have to worry about me getting 11 points officially any time soon. The most points I've ever gotten at home is 2

Well, I got my official 12/13 three weeks after my first 3/3 at home, so anything is possible.

I got my first bld solve three weeks after learning beginner's method from dan brown (and before f2l)

My two cents on learning comms:

I dont recommend learning sticker by sticker.
Instead I recommend learning by "commutator type". I mean like
Type1: buffer plus both targets on D layer but not on D face
Type2: buffer plus one target on U face plus one target on D layer but not D face.

And then gradually adding more "types" of comms to your repertoire as you advance.

But that's just my opinion

This how I learnt ^

I started with a 'TuRBo' style approach, learning an optimal alg for each 'commutator class', and then applying set-up moves to one of these cases. The advantage was that these cases were not isolated to one single face, but all over the cube, giving me a good platform for transitioning into full commutators.

But I can see some value to learning sticker by sticker too. If the point is to start noticing patterns between commutator classes noticing patterns between commutators of different sticker groups, then learning sticker by sticker still accomplishes this. For example, noticing that [R2, U M' U'] is similar to [R, U M' U'] after studying FU and RF stickers respectively, makes you mentally group together algs of insertions and interchanges.

Either way, consult alg lists, learn them, critique them, improve on them, get money, get pitches

Well my insight on comms since many folks are talking about them.

Oh wait i havent learned them i just memo in 10 seconds xDD

I might try doing something like this for edges. I can see why it probably would have been a good idea for corners, but I didn't know any better when I started and just took whatever advice I could find from tutorials and forum posts. Since I'm already in so deep with sticker by sticker, I'll probably just stick to it until I finish.

YES! I've been doing 3BLD for about 1 week and I just beat my old PB by around 30 seconds! New PB is 2:53.35. I use OP/OP with Sentence Memo for corners and Audio edges. If you'd like, you can check out my previous PB here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5hHBI9b8b4

really nice result

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

biggest bld session I've ever done in one sitting, lost my concentration at the end hence the bad results.
90 % were safety solves, all sub1:15 weren't. Two sub1's is really nice too!

I should really fix the small edge mistakes, but sometimes it's really hard when eg. (speffz) VP and FB sound the same haha (atleast in german)
