I decided to slow down my memo and execution a fair amount to see how it would affect my accuracy and as a result, I got 100% of the first 12 solves I did with the slowing down as well as get a pb ao12 (I've never had an ao12 before for bld). Was pretty surprising cos lately, I have been averaging maybe 50% or less for accuracy at full speed so I think I can take something out of this.

Woo! 1/2 2x2 MBLD, second attempt, first one with a success. Time was 5:10.94.

1/2 is a DNF, sorry!

1/2 is a DNF, sorry!

I am aware. But I suck so whatever

I am aware. But I suck so whatever

MBLD with 2x2s... that actually sounds pretty fun...I might give it a try!

1/2 is a DNF, sorry!

1/2 isn't DNF. Your score has to be less than 0 for it to be DNF. (doesn't really make sense but whatever)

They've since introduced a regulation to say that 1/2 is a DNF.

9f12c:

For Multiple Blindfolded Solving, rankings are assessed based on number of puzzles solved minus the number of puzzles not solved, where a greater difference is better. If the difference is less than 0, or if only 1 puzzle is solved, the attempt is considered unsolved (DNF).

Ahh, I see. Sorry, I was unaware of that.

Got a mo3, ao5, and bumped my success rate up to 50%! mo3 was 3:03.00 and ao5 was 3:08.15, so not particularly fast, but I don't get mo3s and ao5s that often.

PB, only my 3rd avg12 ever lol. Counting sup 1 damn it

Edit: rolled it to a 41.25

I've been really lazy with actual blind practice, although still consistently fixing bad corner comms and drilling that stuff, so not sure how this happened since my edge memo is rusty.

pb single by 6 seconds 15 sec memo too which is definitely a first for me.
Sadly, I failed the sub 1 mo3 for literally about the seventh time now (by a flipped edge)...would've been ~52 secs too

Dang you're improving fast. Are you going to look into big/multibld at some point?

Nice times, but that is an Average of 3, not Mo3. For a Mo3, you don't take out any times, so you need 3 successes in a row for a Mo3.

 

[Cale S]

when you're so slow at 5BLD that you start a solve and don't finish until the next year

Nice! I just did a normal 3x3 speedsolve. Maybe next year I'll aim for a 5BLD or hopefully 6BLD!

Multi is next on the agenda after I'm fairly comfortable with my 3BLD method. I'm also trying a bit of 4BLD on the side but I suck at centers and 3BLD is more fun
