Just amazing work, Graham!
What is the maximum number of buffers you have floated too in an MBLD attempt?

Not counting floating 2flips and floating 2twists, I think I've done like 5 or 6 different buffers in one attempt (UB, UL, UFR, UBR, UFL, FD)

Fun stat for my last 6 rounds of weekly comp 5bld:

9/18 successes at 3:31 mean
mean of the best successes of each round is 3:26

Tfw PR single is still 4:18 lol
Trying to not let this get my hopes up for 2 5bld rounds this weekend

 

[sigalig]

Ok 1 more encouraging stat lol
I've been trying lately to figure out a decent way to compute my MBLD global average. A couple ideas I had:

I took the mean of the bo3 for the last 8 sets of 3 mbld attempts I've done (all 60 cube attempts) and the mo8bo3 (lol) is 48.75

48, 50, 52, 42, 44, 44, 58, 52
5 of 8 bo3s overWR yay

Though my comp this weekend only has 2 attempts so it's probably better to calculate the last 8 bo2s, mean for that is 48.25.

46, 42, 44, 44, 44, 58, 56, 52
3 of 8 bo2s overWR eh :/ at least the mean is good though

Safely sub27 finally. No box but multi-phase + random orientation sort of offsets that.

3:20.46 5bld PB mo3, pretty sure its WB also

Times/reconstructions:
1. 3:11.70 (40 algs/3.88 stps)

2. 3:25.25 (41 algs)

3. 3:24.44 (41 algs)

 

[ImmolatedMarmoset]

Forgot to write this as it happened a week or so ago, but I got my first 2 3bld successes!
Haven’t really practiced since then so I hope I can get some more!

 

[Connor Yungbluth]

2/2 MBLD PB: 2:32.91

Happy with this, but I did 2-pass on the first cube to go safe, and I had a short pause (~3 seconds) trying recall a letter pair on cube 2, which together probably added ~15-20 seconds. This is definitely beatable sometime soon, and the road to sub 2 begins

 

[Connor Yungbluth]

3/3 MBLD PB: 4:19.27

Ok this is insane for me. 1:26 per cube with 2-pass is crazy on 3 cubes. Sub-4 is definitely possible, but happy with this for now. A floating 2-flip was nice too

4/4 is next, aiming for sub 6:45

 

[sigalig]

Ok so my 3BLD PB mo3 is 20.58 from a couple weeks ago (10 algs, 10 algs, 8 algs) and I just got a 20.98 mo3 on all 10 alg scrambles lol

mean of 3: 20.98

Time List:
1. 21.91[10'/8] F' L2 D' L U L F2 B R D2 F2 R2 U2 R2 B D2 B2 R2 D2 L2 Fw Uw
2. 20.07[10'/8] R' D2 U2 B2 F R2 B' D2 F' U2 B2 L2 D L U L U R U' F2 R2 Rw
3. 20.96[10'/5'] D2 L2 B' F2 L2 F U2 F2 R2 D2 L2 B L' B F U' F' D' U' F' R2 Rw2 Uw2

I guess the plethora of flips/twists made memo pretty good, around 8 or low 8 for each solve

 

[Dylan Swarts]

10/14 MBLD in 55 mins. My biggest attempt yet. Used Orozco which my accuracy is not VERY reliable with, but improving. I believe all the errors are exe errors. Maybe one memo error. Nats in less than two weeks. Will see if I can possibly get comfortable with 14 by then.

 

[MartinMarechal]

Finally got sub-5 at 4BLD tonight, very happy! Still using U2/r2/OP and no loci technique so I guess 3-style + roman rooms will release much more potential!

View attachment 10320

Roman rooms and loci are pretty much the same thing

 

[Connor Yungbluth]

1:13.31 BLD-OH-2H relay. 35/16/22 splits. Really good BLD, best solve on 10 algs. Decent OH but trash 3x3 despite a XXCross :/

Sub 1 is on it's way

 

[theos]

On my 15th attempt (and just in time for MBLD in a competition next week) I finally got my first ever MBLD success with a 3/3 (18:36). Forgot the last edge on my 2nd cube, but was able to come back and do it after corners; and then started executing corners as edges on my 3rd cube but was able to undo the damage and finish it correctly.

Spoiler: List of attempts

26 March - DNF (1/3)

10 May - 3 pts (3/3) in 18:36.36

Edit: Finally uploaded video to YouTube - MultiBLD 3/3 - My first success

 

[White KB]

Finally got a 3BLD mo3 and MBLD score (not in comp though) My mo3 for 3BLD was 12:24.48 and my MBLD single was 2/2 35:22. Not the best, but I'm trying to improve off of that.

 

[Dylan Swarts]

3BLD PB! 1:22.09[42.42] Super nice. 12 edge letters, 8 corners. Orozco with like one comm, D2:[R U R', D'], NR is 1:43 and Nats is next weekend..

4:27.87 4BLD PB single

6 algs for centers, 12 algs for wings, 4 algs for corners (22 total)

~1:41/2:46 splits.
Memo was pretty good, but did 2 pass to go safe anyway.
Exec should've been better for the number of algs, plus I had a huge pause trying to remember my 5th center pair. Could've saved 15 or so seconds there. Very few pauses other than that.

I'm just happy to have something decent after a ton of fast DNFs (ranging from ~3:15-4:10)

Sub 4 sometime soon

 

[Connor Yungbluth]

4:16.58 single, 4:31.48 mo3, 4:39.21 ao5.

All 4BLD PBs

This is absolutely ridiculous. Can't wait to compete in 4BLD again, especially now that 4BLD mean is recognized
(The mean would be WR21 NAR3 if it was official lol)

Just gotta finish 3-style to get my exec time down

New official PB last weekend. Also nod-donned successfully for the first time in comp.
