Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

1 almost success last night (messed up last edge exec) and 2 successes today! Both were done in school, which I think is a first for me; I usually can't cope with the distractions. 1 cube has gotten very easy to memo :)
 
Alright, I'm more than comfortable doing all edges, and today, I've been able to do all the corners. A little bit more practice, figure out the parity fix, and I'll be ready for full attempts!
 
YES!!!! First full BLD solve!!! 11:42.74, roughly 3 minutes faster than all of my other attempts. 1 cycle for edges, 3 cycles for corners, and parity fix. On my third to last corner switch, my set up move was R D' R and for the life of my I couldn't remember that, I did the set up, Y-perm, R, R' Y-perm, attempted to undo set up move (failed) undid my failed undo, Y-perm, undid set up. I was so scared that I failed right there.

Ahh... this is like the best feeling in the world! I think I'm going to enjoy the BLD solving world! I did record this, awesome reaction if I do say so myself, I kinda freaked out and almost knocked my laptop over. I'll be uploading the video to Youtube shortly.

Succeeded on doing my 2x2x2 BLD after 2 days of my initiation on BLD!!! Im really slow, 19:10, but that will go down pretty fast, i think..
 
Think about it. Compare the time it takes to do a T perm to the time it takes to do M2. It's a lot faster.

4th lucky sub-40. This is my fastest ever :) Could've been slightly faster cos I had to partially undo the last edge cycle
