then you'll either have to train some hungarian guy for 5x5 bld or invite someone to fill the podium as I won't be able

btw, congrats Péter (this is the 3rd place for saying this )

I just tried learning BLD 5 days ago, got edges down, and then corners, and so last night I went for a full BLD solve. Camera set up and everything, 1st attempt, and WHAM-O! Success!

The amazing part is the time:
6:17.99.
I think this is amazing for a first attempt and success.

My avatar is a screenshot from my execution for that solve.

Congrats on your success, and especially congrats on the time!

Thanks you!
There's no feeling like stopping the timer and opening your eyes to a solved cube in front of you.

WOWOWOWOW. Video now. A guy from Melbourne had (I think it was his first success) at a meetup, in around 4:30. He's tried BLD for quite a while too. He was using Old P, but only T-perm for edges, so he was remembering really long setup moves. I can't wait until I get a blindfold. I've been practising awhile, but not having a bld always puts me off, because I'm trying really hard against my will to keep my eyes shut, I fail at memo.

It's not that hard. Try it!

You could put a towel over, or a jumper, and you could put the cube under a table.

That's not very hard either.

Really long as in three at max. >_>

Ok then, try solving J-perm using 3 or less setups. The fastest way is M2 D L2 T-perm L2 D' M2.
4 moves. And that isn't the worst.

l2 D' L2 Tperm L2 D l2
or even funnier: R2 U' R2

 

[Faz]

Try solving J perm using setups?

J perm it...

 

[Tim Major]

l2 D' L2 Tperm L2 D l2
or even funnier: R2 U' R2

How do either of those work?

Solving a J-perm with a T-perm, and 3 or less setup moves.

I keep getting a 3-cycle of edges, and I've tried with both Js. B2 L U L' B2 R D' R D R2
What rotations are needed for your setups to work?

 

[Zava]

I just found an even better:
4 move setup, but cancels out the last 4 moves of T perm, AMAZING!!!!1+!
itslike: RUR'F' - Tperm - FRU'R'
but you can skip the last 8 turns so its just like
RUR'F'RUR'U'R'FR2U'R'U'
gotta try it!4
