7:21.10, 7:09.09, 8:05.88 = 7:32.02 5BLD mean of 3 :D
First mo3 since my first one ever which was 14:55 lol. Really really proud of this accuracy. Oh and the 7:09.09 is PB single also.

Edit:

Edit #2:
Just a nice thing I noticed, after that mo3 my last 10 5bld attempts make a 5/10 session with a 7:31.96 overall mean :)

Edit #3 lolololol:
Did another solve the next day, 7:03.20 PB single which rolled the mo3 to 7:26.06 and gave me a 7:32.02 ao5 :D

4BLD DNF 33[20]
Super causal attempt. Wasn't trying to go fast at all.

But come on!
This is the second time I've been off by two centers.

Really easy scramble, no cycle breaks in wings, corners had a 5cycle + an Aperm. Centers already had 6-7 pieces solved.

Calling this an accomplishment even though DNF because I haven't practiced big bld in months, and this is the first time I've used centers comms instead of U2.
 
PB Ao5 and Mo3!

5BLD: DNF(1:37.34[1:10])

Off by a bit, but only because I didn't undo one set up move (r) during xcenters. I realized the mistake halfway through +centers, and just felt depressed for the rest of the solve. Exhausted too, because I had taken so long to memorize and review the cube to make sure that I would get a success.
And I'm almost glad that I DNFed my 4BLD attempt earlier, as I know remember that I wanted a 5BLD success first. Luckily, the weekly competition has two more 5BLD scrambles.

I was a little worried about using comms for +centers, since they seem a bit weird to me compared to xcenters. But +center comms are just as easy and about as fun! I'm almost tempted to learn comms for normal 3BLD and wings, but I'm not insane yet. Gosh, I've got to finish ZBLL first!

No more Big BLD non-success-posts here. My next post here will be a 5BLD success :)!

yeah boiiiii

5BLD - 4:08.83 [1:45]

done with the white Wushuang I won at Nats

centers were actually not very lucky, 11 x comms and 10 + comms, wings were 11 comms but 3 of them were cases with the pieces on the same edge which isn't very good, midges were 5 comms and corners were 4
