5/5 mBLD for the fourth time (31:38.964 PB) just 6 days before my competition!!
Got some new noise-cancelling headphones today so that helped!!
Also my first sub 3 Mo3 3BLD (2:22.15, 2:34.61, 2:40.51 = 2:32.423 Mo3) ready to smash that 3 minute qualification time for World's!!

Another PB mo3 
46.45
Never realized drilling corner comms would make such a big difference. I think my M2 is getting faster too which is resulting in less pauses to recall memo during corner execution.

After 89 solves, I finally got a 5BLD mean of 3 (scrambles from the weekly competition) and average of 5:
mean of 3: 10:42.96
Time List:
1. 11:30.07
2. 10:25.85
3. 10:12.94
avg of 5: 11:38.14
Time List:
1. 12:58.48
2. (DNF(11:14.09))
3. 11:30.07
4. 10:25.85
5. (10:12.94)
My PB single before this was 11:19 too. Sub-10 will happen eventually.
I forgot to start recording for the first solve of the mean, but the last two were filmed:
I should really switch over to corner comms already...

Memo was kinda slow, not sure why, there were also quite a few pauses in execution, I should be able to improve on this soon.

For single letters I often just imagine the letter on the last object that I put in my image. For example if I had pictured one of those one ton weight things, I would have pictured a Q on the weight. Do you have any suggestions on what would be better than this?

You are aware though that electronic headphones are illegal in WCA competitions?
GJ on your attempt, I hope your competition goes well!

Ah no I was not aware of this reg (2i1b)
Guess I'll just have to use them for practising at home and find some earplugs for the competition!

There are a few options but they are only better if they work for you.
- You could choose a certain subject that you use only for single letters. I use superheroes so in that case it would be Quicksilver, I've known someone use Pokémon.
- You could have an unused letter as an imaginary 2nd letter to make a pair so if your system doesn't use Z you could have Quiz.
- You might want to use a letter on the buffer piece as the imaginary 2nd letter. If the Q was in my edge memo I have D/F as my buffer so U and K are available giving Quick or Queue. I'd like to change to this method as there are lots of options and then I get to use more superheroes in my memo.
