Sub 9 single
DNF=8:08.00[2:23.79]
I think this is the first time I have remembered everything without a hassle.
2 twisted corners, 6 edges and an M2. I fumbled the cube while executing BD and I think I did an extra M2.
I really

really want to get a success in comp at Dixon Fall 2016, but I need one at home first. Also thinking of switching to TuRBo, but its still a little confusing.

Whoa, sub-2 execution.
The best part about this solve is that I know exactly what I ddi wrong: I forgot to flip an edge, and didn't identified parity.

Also thinking of switching to TuRBo, but its still a little confusing

From experience, I don't recommend this. The problem with TuRBo is that you need to setup two targets at a time and it takes extra thinking to remember which order you used for the setups. It's fine once execution becomes automatic but its tricky when you're just starting out with BLD. M2 takes less thinking because you only need to worry about one target at a time.

 

[Altha]

Also thinking of switching to TuRBo, but its still a little confusing.

I agree with AlphaSheep that sticking with M2 should work out for a long time (I did so for almost two years ). But after a while, if you want to learn 3-style for edges, switching to TuRBo for the UF buffer is a good choice.

Anyhow, looks like you're getting close, prepare for a very satisfying moment when you do get that first success

I just had a successful 3BLD solve in front of a crowd of people! Hopefully that will convince more people to join cubing club

"nerves of steel" hahahahaha I'm probably the WR holder for "most nervous competitor in WCA history"

I got 2 DNFs before it, one was very bad (that was last friday), and the other one today was off by 2 twisted corners. The success was cool though.

Wow nice!

Spoiler: Semi-Reconstruction

I have a lazy system where instead of labeling each piece with one letter, they get two and have two words to chose from, a noun or an adjective. The system goes like Ua, Ub, Uc, Ud, La, Lb, ect. Following speffz.
