what does cheatting mean? dude you should totally check other's stuff or even cubexplorer, i love learning new techniques, i like it more than doing bld, if you wanted to challenge yoruself to do that thats cool but now you should totally learn new techniques, the more the better, and edges are even funnier!

I felt like it would be a better practice if I wrote them out my self the first time. I definitely plan on going back and revising this list. That's why I referred to it as my first draft.

Ooops, yeah I forgot about the new WR...Well anyway, cool! I'm sure you'll crush that single solve at least. I'm hoping to pull a Jayden and get a sub-40 as my first sub-1 lol.

Decided to try 27 MBLD only until PBQ UCLA (2 weeks away) so that 25 cubes sub-hour feels safer.

First attempt: 24/27 in 1:06:18.86[46:21.05].
Really happy with this accuracy, but I definitely was taking the attempt pretty safe. I also wasted something like 2 minutes during memo because I caught a mistake in tracing and had to completely re-memorize a cube. 27 cube attempts sub-hour should be doable within the next few tries, and hopefully the accuracy doesn't get worse with speed

EDIT: A funny thing that actually makes the accuracy feel even better: 2 of the 3 cubes were off by two twisted corners, one of them was off by an M2 X(

Wow, congrats!!!

I think it is time for me to attempt more than 25 cubes

I'm pretty sure this beats my all time pb from before I took my multi year break. That means that this is the first event other than skewb and square-1 that I have caught up with myself in.

Spoiler

Skewb had just become an event when I stopped cubing, and I never used to practice Square-1

1. 3BLD - got a pb 34.81 at the 1st round(My previous home pb was 35). At finals I solved 3BLD in 48.06

Very impressed that you got an overall PB in comp.

 

[Daniel Lin]

Nice, Daniel! What are your PBs?

in my sig
18.05 single, 22.4x mo3, 23.70 av5, 37.xx av12

my accuracy is trash, that's why my av12 is 37, but i missed a 25 av12 recently by 2 DNFs

 

[Torch]

15:05.15 5BLD success! Not a PB, but I'm always happy to get it. Execution was slow (on purpose), so I've got room to improve there.

First 30 cube MBLD attempt after being able to sub1hr 25 cubes:

30/30 MBLD in 1hr 16min 35.05s (~50min memo)

Big improvement from my attempts last year which were sup2hr

Going for NRs at nats?

 

[Fábio De'Rose]

PB Mo3! Very consistent.

Memo is flowing really well, Corners memo is definitely sub-30, with occasional sub-20. Edges memo is improving, but I tend to play safe and review a lot as well.
