Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

What? Over 1000? What? I am learing 2 letters per image (AA-AX through XA-XX) and that's only 576 images, how do you get over 1k?

Different sets for corners and edges - obviously.

 

[Cubenovice]

Whoa... I am already having difficulties finishing the last 42 images of my list, let alone have to find an additional full set.

But..why would they do that? I saw no real good reason to do that when I was making my pair list.
@Cubenovice, PM me what you have left, I have my list almost fully memorized (A-R done)

Alternatively, he could be using a person-action system, with one person and one action (that is, two "images") for each possible letter pair.

MBLD 3/3 9:20
MBLD 8/8 39:50
MBLD 10/10 48:55

Happy with these times. The 3/3 was an improvement from 13:xx and the 8/8 is and improvement from 42:xx

3/3 multi in 13:17 using journey for memo. It's a great feeling taking off the blindfold and having all cubes solved.

Hi Ryan, thanks for the offer but I already know the "letter pair image list thread" and both of Chris' lists.

They have helped me but I use only something like 5% of them since my list is mostly made up of Dutch words ;-)

 

[MrMoney]

When it comes to MBLD I like being accurate I have devised a strategy for me to almost never miss twists/flips or the order of images/locations. It seems to be working well, but I still have MANY improvements which I will implement

Thanks!

You could translate.

3:57.07 OHBLD. My PB. </3 slice moves. TuRBo from now on for OHBLD.

5BLD: 11:46.18.

Last weekly comp scramble, starting to get used to my new xcenter lettering scheme.

 

[Tim Major]

(45.81), 1:07.90, (DNF), 48.95, 48.60 = 55.15

Too bad about the counting 1:07, but I haven't been getting many sub-50s so the counting two make up for it.

O_O
I missed this, great job :tu

Was it lucky? Because the last I heard of, your pb was 13:50~ with your old scheme o.O

 

[Zane_C]

Thanks, Tim.

I may not have scrambled correctly, but going off memory I had 4 xcenters, 4 +centers, 1 corner and 1 wing solved.

Before I'd switched my scheme, I had many sub-12 times... unfortunately along with these times, came a very long DNF steak.

5-BLD are very seldom lucky in the meaning of > 20% pieces solved (>= ~19). 4-BLD happens more often.
But the third solve definitely was easy, I must have oriented differently from Zane, as I recall I managed to
get no less than 16 center pieces solved. (I got 17:06).

I don't orient 5x5 as I barely understand the center switching comms.
I applied the scramble again and undid it to reassure I scramble correctly, it appears I scrambled wrong the first time. The 11:46.18 had an additional 1 xcenter and 1 +center solved for me. Lol, do I DNF the last scramble now?

Scramble was kinda crap.

Congrats Zane! I knew you'd be happy that you relettered once you had a bit of time to adjust! Wait until your new scheme becomes second nature, I think you'll find that your times continue to go down!

Scramble was kinda crap.

Congrats Feliks! Keep up your crazy magic here! With your 4x4x4 BLD times being what they are I think you could easily go sub-10 on 5x5x5 with just a bit of practice (probably not even a lot to be honest). Good luck!

 

[ben1996123]

YAY!

3x3 bld 1:57.23, still using just old pochmann

corners: DIPOLG twist buffer/E headlights
edges: BX JEAP FINA

2 edges solved, no parity, 59 sec memo.

I should probably learn a new method soon

No, I would count it if I were you. You had an honest attempt at the scramble, and you're not judged on your scrambling ability, but your solving ability.

And it sounds like you didn't get the real benefit from that scramble anyway. I'm not sure if it was "officially lucky", but it probably was, the way I oriented it. I counted: I had 19 center pieces solved - it was one of the most ridiculously easy 5x5x5 BLD scrambles ever.

 

[DennisStrehlau]

Yes, i have 2 different "sets" of images for corners and edges...
