Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

And Micael, nice try on the multi.
Thanks Mike. I did not mention that I needed 8 attempts spread in 3 days, though.

I believe you will do a breakthrough in multi in some time. Based on your big cube times, I guess there are just few details to fix (specific to multi) and then you will suddenly do 15 cubes. I really don't know what you have to do, though.
 
This is a fun scramble: D' U B' F2 D B' D L' B R D' L R2 D2 U' L2 R B' F2 L2 R' U L' B R'

I got 1:14.06, that should tell you how lucky it is. I got it from the regular accomplishment thread. As soon as I looked at it I was like "BLD. now."
 
Just did a 2:12.25 on 3x3, which is the best time I've had since I changed to BH-corner.

Haven't gained on it compared to my last method Old P, but I'm sure I will soon enough!

Hey Sakarie, that's great! Hope you like the corner method! Once you get used to BH corners, and it becomes second nature, you'll wonder why you ever used to use anything different ;)

YEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, congratulations, Péter! Your execution speed is nothing short of astonishing! It took me over a year to get that fast at execution. Very very impressive result. (Now go work on memory methods! :))

Thank you, Mike. I think the r2 is what makes my execution that fast. I can solve edges fluently and fast with this method, and I don't have to think about setups. And you're right, I have to work on memorization because the method I use for 4x4 is really bad for 5x5(especially the visual center memorization).
 
@Peter: Congrats on the 5x5x5 BLD solve! Isn't that cube an especially amazing feeling when you pull off the blindfold to a solved cube? Congrats again! :D :D

@Daniel: congrats on your first success! Welcome to your new addiction ;)

1:34.47 DNF with two corners twisted :( Would have been a pretty crazy lucky BLD PB.
 
Woo, another 4x4 bld success! I scrapped letter pair memo for centers and just went visual, and it took way less time to memo centers. Also, the execution for centers seemed so much more natural. I think I may be able to get the hang of this. 3 minutes off my last time (which isn't saying much, but w/e):

21:11.48, ~10 minutes memo.

I haven't done any attempts since my first success a few weeks ago, so this surprised me a little.

Yay! I think I'll do visual corners and centers from now on, and only use letter pairs for r2 edges.

1:03.09, kinda disappointed. I really was hoping for sub-1 lucky :)
 
I thought I could have my first BLD success, even with such an easy scramble, but unfortunately, I had 4 edges flipped, and 2 corners twisted. This kinda belongs in the failures thread, but it was using ^^^ scramble.

Haha, that was almost a silly easy scramble. Unfortunately, I didn't notice that FR (if scrambling as holding) was flipped, so I had a DNF on 1:27.72. My record is 2:05, but I couldn't have counted this even if I made it...

Just did a 2:12.25 on 3x3, which is the best time I've had since I changed to BH-corner.

I definitely like it! Solving the corners fast makes me almost not have to memorize them, and I can recall edges much easier since I barely memo the corners!

Oh lol, 1:19:59 (memo ~ 30s). Also I stopped the timer 5 seconds late thinking that maybe I forgot a cycle or something.
