DNF avg5:

1. 1:38.09
2. 1:40.43
3. 2:17.47
4. DNF
5. DNF

Both of the first 2 solves were better than my previous PB. My corner memo method is still very new to me (and I haven't memoed all of my images yet), but I'm already finding it much easier and more enjoyable than visual. Hopefully I can find the willpower to keep practicing now.
 
Been doing alot of MBLD the last two weeks, managed to get afew success 6/6. Yesterday I tried 8 cubes for the first time, resulting in 4 of 8. I am experimenting alot with some new methods, trying many mbld a day. I think I am getting abit burned out by it all, lol. Must slow down! Next goal is to use commutators on all all cubes instead of the usual M2/OP.

Too bad there is no competition in sight for afew months.

Done over the last 3 days (yes that means I did more than 3 in a single day for the second, third and fourth times ever).
I also rolled off 2 really slow ones at from the start
The DNF was just me locking up badly on an M2 and getting lost in it

YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First 3x3x3 Blind Sucess.:D:D:D:D:D

The Scramble was really easy though. Here it is...
L D' U' L' R' D F2 L2 U' L' R' F B U R' F' U2 F U R' D' L2 F2 R2 D'

And the time was...
3:50.73 [2:08.72]:D
and I went slow so I wouldn't mess up a good scramble

Edit: I should probably also mention that my 3x3x3 average is 35 seconds
 
2/2 15m xD
So like, an hour ago aronpm quickly explained routes, so I went to my room and came up with a route from my bedroom to the hall door, and did an edges only BLD solve. Then went for weekly multi, quickly came up with a route for the 2nd cubes edges (from the loungeroom door to kitchen stoves.)
For corners I'm just turning letters into audio.

My 2nd route was going to start in the lounge room and end in the kitchen, but the first 3 letters were J M D (made it D after buffer was solved) so I switched the order of the route and made Jake Make Donuts. This was an interesting route, because I wasn't walking through it, I was looking at people/items, doing things, or having certain facial expressions.

I'm using people I know for images. I can think of a boy and girl for most of the letters, who I can remember well (personality, physical shape etc)
Like if I'm getting someone to bash someone else, I'll use an angry person, or a person who fights a lot who's name starts with that letter. In case I forget one letter, eg: F, (fighting maybe) the name of the person, can make me remember that they're fighting. And if I remember fighting but not the name, I can narrow it down if I have to guess.
Much more fun method of memorization (at least for now).

Only downfalls, speed, and also I make messed up facial expressions while memorizing, which could be quite embarrassing at a competition :p I'll have to work on that.

Edit: I seriously spent under 2 minutes working on my routes before attempting, I just haven't posted until now. My memo was really fast, bu I had way too many pauses during execution.
 
First BLD solve! :D

I need to work on my corner memo; edge memo took about 2 minutes, corners 6, and solving another 5

Very pleased! I love P-A-O memo :D
 
First blindfold solve here too. Took about 30 min. in all, but then I got an easy scramble and got this 3 tries after my first blindsolve...

5:54.90 (counting memorization)

I suck at memorizing edges it takes about 5-7 min usually. Memorizing corners I'm pretty good at. For corners it takes about 2 min. on average.

EDIT: It seems me and Kynit are pretty much opposites.
