I managed to solve 43 cubes in 1 hour, and dnf 12. So a total of 43/55 3blds in 1 hour.

I think that's just a score of 43, or does it use multi scoring?

 

[Dylan Swarts]

I had also thought of this, but I have not come up with an idea of how this would work. I think DNFs should have some effect on the point outcome though, but yeah.. \o/ I suppose it is open for suggestions

I think it would make since to do Multi, since you decide the number of cubes before starting the attempt.

 

[Dylan Swarts]

No you don't. You attempt at many as you can in one hour. I just prepared enough so I would not run out, similar to how you would do a challenge to solve as many 3x3's as possible in a given time. Except 3bld adds dnfs.

For purposes of competition, I think you could do structure this event more efficiently by seeing how quickly you can reach a certain number of successful solves. For example, you need to get 10 successful solves, and DNFs don't count towards the total, but they do count towards your total time. So, you keep solving until you get 10 successes, then stop the timer. You are automatically punished for DNFs by having their time added.

To continue this example, if it takes you 1 minute to complete a solve and you had 2 DNFs, then you had to solve 12 cubes to get 10 successes -- this gives you a time of 12 minutes. If you had no DNFs, your time would have been 10 minutes.

You can scale up the number of cubes depending on how much you want accuracy to matter, and how long you want the event to last. This is almost the same thing as the 1-hour version, but it's more time-efficient, and makes it easier to account for DNFs. I see the appeal of the hour-long version, but I don't think that much would be added to this event by making it last for a full hour -- you can get a meaningful average that reflects your speed and accuracy in much less time.

FU

whatchu sayta me?

 

[fun at the joy]

Never really liked M2 so I thought I'd try out something different.

I've only done around 7 solves and this is my fastest.
It's still super slow but I'll work on that. I'm not used to UF buffer, comms and the setups yet.

Why is it better?

 

[ProStar]

Haven't been doing BLD at all, but did an edges only attempt in the bathroom(lol) last night since I felt like I knew the problem. I think I was making bad letter pairs, not visualizing them, and reviewing way too much. Got motivated to do an attempt just now, and got a 4:09.11, only 20 seconds off of PB probably could've been PB, I had to pause and run through my memo to remember if I had parity, which I should've known I didn't. Though I twisted UFR(like physically), but turns out I didn't. Memo was around 2:30(glanced at the timer before putting on blindfold), way faster than normal. Super happy, about to do another solve

I got a 2:06.17 3BLD PB solve yesterday! Previous PB was a 2:46 I think.

 

[ProStar]

4:02.36 3BLD. First M2 success, and also PB#2

 

[NevEr_QeyX]

4:02.36 3BLD. First M2 success, and also PB#2

Did you get parity?

 

[Deleted member 52088]

I'm gonna post my personal best's in here
3BLD: 2:09.12
4BLD: 15:17
5BLD: Never gotten a success, done 2 attempts.
MBLD: 2/2

 

[ProStar]

Did you get parity?

No. I decided to just do CEEC because it turns out the parity alg is ridiculous for CF

 

[FluxDigital01]

I came here to share my new 3BLD PB. I decided to mainly practice 3BLD, and I've improved a lot from sub-5:00.

[the best d1mnd]

pretty good day for me in terms of results

 

[NevEr_QeyX]

I got a 36 second memo with a DNF, the scramble was this. I guess I just had big brain memo lookahead for this one solve in particular, the scramble was normal except for one solved corner (nothing too crazy)
