30/35 Official MBLD in 56:24 NR! :D missed 31/35 (which would have been WR4) by a corner pop which I fixed back but in wrong orientation :p

Also had a 26/42 in 1:00:00 in the first attempt which is the most cubes attempted officially till now after Maskow! :)
 
3BLD is all you ever do! But you're getting really good at it.
hahah I'm in year 12 so I don't have much time to do anything else bld-related so all my bld time goes into 3bld :P (also cos it's the only bld event that ever gets held in melbourne amirite)

Congrats, but actually Maskow tried more cubes than 41, he did 34/46 in 56:52

Thanks :)
Awesome accomplishment! How was the 26/42?

Thanks! :) 42 cubes was just about the number I could do sub hour at home but due to me being not used to the competition environment, nervousness etc I got a bit pressured by time during execution, although the memo was really fast for me (34 minutes) but I started to forget some cubes during exec and I had one cube left to execute when 1 hour was up :)

How many cubes did you solve? I mean in 26/42. All in hour?
p

Yeah I was halfway through the execution of the second last cube when I ran out of time, would have probably finished around 40 seconds after the hour

Congrats, but actually Maskow tried more cubes than 41, he did 34/46 in 56:52

Thanks :) Yeah, I meant most cubes attempted by a person other than Maskow :)

first dnf off by 4 edges, second by 3 and third was a mess. Other than that, I did small mistakes, especially on the 42.92 (had CF but executed F first, had to undo it, could'v been a 40) and the 1:04.49 (did HW, but executed as JW but only realised 4 targets after and had to undo and redo everything :/ Could've been a low 50, making the ao5 sub 50).
best avg5 in here is a 53.67. Counting 1:21 hurts, but it's better than a dnf. Session mean without the 1:21 would've been 55ish :)

EDIT: had a 1:05.07 straight afterwards, making a 1:01.49 avg12! PB by 7.5 seconds :D
 
First 3BLD session I've had time for in a few days:

DNF(4:30.08)[1:46.46]
2:27.94[2:27.08]
DNF(4:54.41)[1:58.45]
2:51.02[1:37.12]
4:14.08[1:38.46]
4:20.00[2:35.76]
2:53.79[1:30.13]
2:27.52[1:19.93]
DNF(2:31.61)[1:15.60]
3:06.80[1:51.30]
DNF(3:19.11)[1:41.18]
DNF(2:54.04)[1:06.72]
3:26.68[1:47.66]
DNF(3:21.08)[1:30.61]
DNF(3:36.85)[1:54.79]

I'm a little disappointed about the counting 4:14 in that ao5 and the 4:20 in the mo3, but at least I have both of those now. Really happy about some of those singles though :D
For the 2:27.94, I forgot to hit the timer after memo, so technically the 2:27.08 is the actual time of the solve :P
 
3BLD: 52.858 mo3, 52.369 ao5, 55.885 ao 12
I'd say I'm finally sub-1. My execution is still very bad, like 35 seconds bad. I had a few solves today where I had sub 20 and even sub 15 memo (fastest memo was 10.14), but they were still only mid-40s.
 
DNF(2:36.30)[1:25.83]
DNF(2:53.96)[1:26.36]
3:07.17[1:30.77]
DNF(3:13.89)[1:38.59]
DNF(2:46.71)[1:23.22]
2:52.70[1:27.24]
2:05.55[59.99]
DNF(4:05.88)[1:32.19]
2:24.13[1:14.13]
DNF(2:35.13)[55.90]

Yay sub-1 memos :D and wooow that single...nearly 20 seconds better than my next-best success.
