YES! I did it! 5x5BLD. First success ever. The time was 19:29.12. It had all kinds of parity.

That's very impressive, 4 minutes off from the world record on your first success.

 

[Yes We Can!]

What an awesome feeling!
I just got my first success for 4x4 centers BLD.
Time was 7:05.36.
Using Bosia's 4B2M (2-cycle)
Can't imagine what I will do after a full solve xD

Edges soon!

Great time! As long as Ville doesn't shave off a few minutes from the WR you may have a descent chance to break it with a little practice.

~cries~ Please don't get sub 30. You'll just make me feel worse. What in your opinion, is your limit. For 3x3bld.

Grr, to no sub-30s. But a nice avg anyway!

12/12 in 47:30. 29 minutes memo.

I applied the entire solution for cube 9 onto cube 10, realized it, undid everything, then re-solved cube 10. So it could've been at least 2 to 3 minutes faster On cube 2, I couldn't remember if the word was "pee (PE)" or "**** (PS)," so I just made a random guess and it worked. And there were like 5 people in my room playing Nazi Zombies and shouting at each other when I was trying to memo

 

[KJiptner]

nice job! you're pro! CANADA!

12/12 in 47:30. 29 minutes memo.

Wow. And just like that, you're WAY better than me. This quote is now quite hilarious.

I wish I was one of those guys who could do 10/10 I just don't have that sort of memory.

And on another subject, the only reason I didn't bother to comment about Ville's achievements was because I was left speechless - I couldn't think of what to say. Ville is awesome!

 

[Isbit]

maybe this should be in the failures thread, but i'm still quiet happy about it:
4x4 blind in like 45 minutes with just 8 centers and 4 edges off. I think I did something to the centers, like misexecuted an alg, because I had a 2x1-block of B centers on the F face and vice versa. hope i'll get it soon (like, before norwegian open)

 

[qqwref]

Epic 12/12, blah o_0 You are rapidly becoming a master of multi.

Pyraminx BH edges time attack: 11:32.40

So I think I've got pyraminx BH edges more or less figured out. I'm still terribly slow at a few cases, but I'm getting where I see most of them. There are 40 cases plus inverses (a total of 80). It looks to me like there's a really nice symmetry - I think I've counted 12 4-movers, 12 5-movers, 12 6-movers, and 4 7-movers. I'm still not sure if I'm missing some better algorithms on some of them, though, since I'm just figuring them out by hand.

Anyway, it's been a fun diversion these past few days.

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

First freestyle success yesterday. I didn't time it, but it was about 5 minutes. Now that I know I can do it, I can start trying to get faster

2nd Successful 3x3 BLD solve 12:00.96. 4 minutes faster than my first!
Memorization took me 5 minutes, still really slow solve. I go really slowly to make sure I don't mess up. :<
