Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

First official 5bld yesterday at Bristol. 40:32. Nice and slow. It was 10 centres solved (5 of each type). I just wanted to finish so I really went over everything loads. I just recited my entire memo again, so it clearly stuck in there! I was so nervous at the end because I had wing parity, and I had mucked up the alg in a 4bld and a 5bld already the day before. Luckily I managed to blank my mind and let my fingers execute it without thinking. Best moment in cubing so far :)

Wow! Congratulation! :)
 
YEEEEESS!!!

1:16.09 BLD solve and it was non-lucky too! First sub-80!
It's my first PB ever using M2 for edges :p

Scramble:
F2 R' F B' R U2 R D2 F2 R' U' D F D' F U' R2 F' B2 D U B2 F D F

Memo:
Corners: NRUW (Z and A corner (DBR and ULF) need to be flipped)

Edges: GFZBIK
flip D and C edge (UR and UB), do x' rotation: Z-Perm

I especially liked the solve because of the freestylish ending :D

Next goal is sub-70! Sub-1 is possible for me too.
 
Did I finally get the UWR back?!?!?

7x7x7 BLD: 45:52.97 [23:24]

Baaaaaaaammmmm!!!!!!! :D :D :D

This was the first scramble from the weekly competition 2010-13. I spent 56 seconds (I looked because it seemed like way too much time) trying to find a way to reorient it, and then stuck with the original orientation. (So it could have been almost a minute faster. :() When I finished memorizing, it felt REALLY secure, so I figured I'd go for it and solved as fast as I could. I never checked to make sure I was turning the right slice. After a minute or two of that, I convinced myself that surely I already had a DNF, so I might as well go as fast as possible the whole time - if it was correct, it would be a UWR, and if it was incorrect, it would mean I'd waste less time on the attempt. And it paid off - solved!

Okay Ville, it took me almost a year, but I finally beat your first successful solve. Time for you to try again. :)

I think my eyes are about to fall out.
 
YES!!!!

I finally solved the 4x4BLD! :D At my 12th attempt I made it with a time of 20:39.80. I'm really excited now, especially since I had another attempt earlier tonight with a three-cycle edges wrong in 18:20.
where did you learn to solve it?
link please

I learned it from other cubers so I have no link to give you. But I can tell you I use U2 for centers, r2 for edges and old pochmann for corners.
