10/10 MBLD PB - 46:04.16[30:59.95]
Really trying to get the total time under 45 minutes and my memo under 30 minutes. But regardless of the time I am really happy with this result and I am starting to feel pretty comfortable with 10 cubes. I will most likely try 12-15 cubes next month(the beginning of June).
 
@MatsBergsten:
Congrats for winning the national title with your second 5bld-Mo3 :cool::cool::cool:
http://www.cubecomps.com/live.php?cid=3024&cat=18&rnd=1
Thanks for noticing :) Hanns (and Mike and Mark :)).

On the other hand I failed totally on the 3-bld final (for the first time in ten years WCA
comps not getting a result, perhaps tried to much to get on the podium but more likely
just bad concentration and hard scrambles (at least the first two)).

Getting three 5-bld in a row now makes it six in a row totally. Of course I was beginning to
wonder how many who have done that ;). (It would be fun to have the corresponding statistic
for the WCA-statistic longest 3-bld streak). Well I almost immediately found that both Hanns
and Mikes record streak also is six. Istvan K "only" has five. But looking closer I found two
chinese guys (Shenghai Fang and Jiachi Han) with eight each.
Last year I really went for three in a row after getting the first two(going very safe), but this
year it "just happened" when trying to win the comp.

Well, there's always next years Swedish Champs :).
 

On a 12/6 scramble (9 comms), not bad at all!

EDIT: I got another 16 later! Not on cam this time.

MBLD PB 48/48 in 58:44 [35:11]

amazing attempt for me :D PB by 4 points!

Memo: 35:11 [43.97/cube]
Exec: 23:33 [29.43/cube]
total: 58:44 [73.41/cube]

Previous PB was 46/48 in 58:39 (44 points)
This is also the n/n UWR! (best attempt with 100% cubes solved) Its my first perfect attempt over 20 cubes!

also last 3 attempts are 45/48, 45/48, 48/48 = 44.00 points mo3!
 
Fairly sure this is 3BLD PB. I think I might have had a sub 30 before, but possibly without box/random orientation

First avg12 in more than three years! Previous PB was 40.99 in January 2015

32.98, 28.20, 39.69, 31.96, 23.77, 31.37, 34.70, 31.02, 40.34, 39.50, DNF(34.34), 47.03 = 35.68 avg12

The last solve was intense. My heart was beating so hard.

23 was a very nice scramble, 8 algs.
 
2nd success ever

At 1:30+ "And that lady's and gentlemen is why you have ear protection":)
To be honest I thought that, that was really impressive that you did not lose your concentration and forget any of the pieces. I would have DNF'd that as soon as the phone rang;) so great job on that.

Also, I am pretty jealous (well not really) that you got parity/get parity every now and then. I have never needed to do the parity alg, which is nice because I do not have to worry about if there would be parity or not, but I have been trying to (slowly) figure out why that is and what I am doing different. But still great job on that solve and all the others and keep up the practice.
 
Honestly the FaceTime wasn’t so bad, especially compared to during memo when they kept forgetting I was BLD solving and trying to talk to me
I see, but I still think that is was great that you were able to keep you concentration for the whole blind attempt, so good job on that.

I think your definition of parity might be different than mine, because I didn’t get parity in this solve? I consider parity to be when there is an odd number of edge and corner pairs and you have to apply an Ra perm.
I do know that you get "Parity" when there are a odd number of edges/corners, and that the Ra perm will solve parity but I have never needed to do that on any OP/OP blind solve, that is all I was trying to say. You did the Ra perm in the solve, Right? because if you did, then that was the "Parity" alg, which I have never needed to do, even if there are odd edge/corners.

Regardless of this all, great job once again on the success and I look forward to seeing more soon.

I've read somewhere before that you don't get parity and as mentioned back then there's an easy way to find out why: Just do a reconstruction of your execution of a parity scramble (for example U), post it here and we will understand!

I am planning on doing that soon, but thank you for reminding me about that. What do you mean when you say "(for example U)"?
I just did a quick sighted solve using OP/OP and for corners I started with the buffer (Duh) and I had 5 corners to solve before a break and then I broke into a new cycle and I had 3 pieces to solve, so with the first 5 and last 3 plus the break that equaled to 9, which is a odd number and after I did edges and corners everything was solved with out and parity.
This is just a quick example of what I do in OP/OP and I will try to provide a better example soon, but if you notice anything wrong in this post please let me know. Thanks.
