Congratulations! :cool:

Nice, multi BLD improvement can be quite rapid, I see more cubes to come.

I have 5 months to get over 10/10 (NAR) so I hope it continues to be rapid. I hope for at least 12 by Nationals.
I usually start off really slow, and get faster as I memo more cubes.[/QUOTE]
I'm the opposite..I can memo 3 cubes in like 10 minutes, maybe 11 (IIRC that was how long it took me yesterday) and it got steadily slower.


Between me and my brother we only have 8 cubes so I need to buy more :p.
 
After watching Chris's recent 5x5 solve, I remembered how much fun BLD is and I'm getting back into it :D

I stopped for a while to memorize my word list... but that never really happened, so I'm just going to start doing solves with the list beside me at first. First try was DNF 4:49, but only because I did M U2 M U2 wrong haha. The accomplishment is starting to practice again.

Edit: second try 3:55 success :)
Should be back down to 3 min soon which is where I left off.

I did a failed solve (missed a twisted corner) and a succesful one on the bus today
07:44.92 (failed) and 07:39.21 (succesful)

Even though I failed on the first one I'm really proud of myself, I'm almost on target (I want to be sub7 before sunday next week)
 
Got my second sub 2 ever!!!!
1:56.76 D' L' R B2 R L' U2 F U2 F' U F R2 U2 D R' U' D2 B R' F' R B2 F' R
2 corners placed, normal edges

Very fast memo for me, 4 letter groups for edges, visual + letters for corners.

OH MY ****ING GOD
I just improved my personal record by 2 minutes, from 7.30 to 5.31.50
Scramble: D' R2 B2 D L2 U B2 D' L2 U2 L2 F D R U' R' F2 R' D' F' L2 D2
Corners were visual so no transcription
edge memo: OV En Anderen, NeGeer Kappa Tau, Jaap Dirk Ruikt Goed
 
8/8 in 55:44.22 :)

Was only unsure about one sune twist on corners (awkward corner placements) and one I wasn't sure I would remember it ..the memo wasn't all that great to work with.

BUT YES. 9 next week when I get my order of cubes coming in. SOO close to NAR I can taste it :3.

I had 3 cubes memo'd at 9 minutes, I slow down too much in the later stages.

Woww!!!!!! 100% success rate on 8 cubes,nice improvement.what was memo time?
 
Decided to do a large BLD session today. 100 solves spread out over 4-5 sessions.

number of times: 64/100
best time: 35.51
worst time: 1:07.65

best avg5: 42.64 (σ = 1.12)
best avg12: 46.54 (σ = 4.74)
session mean: 47.78

47.70, 46.41, DNF(48.11), 44.04, DNF(50.25), DNF(49.33), 44.94, DNF(57.10), 45.93, DNF(1:12.74), 42.13, 44.95, 58.34, 49.44, 36.96, 46.74, 1:07.65, DNF(54.90), 40.40, 46.83, DNF(1:08.39), DNF(38.79), 52.19, 40.24, 47.54, 45.77, 46.90, 55.07, 44.21, 54.99, 41.11, 42.12, 41.61, DNF(47.17), 46.13, DNF(1:05.58), 43.22, 59.38, DNF(1:04.33), 42.42, 50.98, 49.15, 45.69, DNF(1:12.34), 36.61, 50.35, DNF(1:04.20), 48.12, 39.69, DNF(1:05.09), DNF(39.28), 35.51, 49.87, DNF(1:07.37), 45.75, DNF(45.68), DNF(33.11), 1:06.22, 47.93, DNF(40.94), DNF(1:01.24), 45.27, DNF(47.58), 52.16, 41.37, 40.47, 1:05.10, 39.72, 48.56, DNF(44.58), DNF(46.92), DNF(56.60), DNF(45.07), 54.25, 44.10, DNF(42.74), 57.70, 51.15, 45.21, DNF(1:09.16), 46.31, 42.80, DNF(1:05.13), 51.22, DNF(49.76), DNF(41.93), DNF(41.98), 42.58, 54.44, DNF(54.42), 50.47, 49.30, DNF(1:15.69), 49.07, DNF(32.22), 56.46, DNF(58.60), 40.06, DNF(58.24), 58.86

Was at 36/50, DNFed more in the next 50 solves cos I was getting tired and also doing longer sessions to get to 100 sooner. I was hoping for 70% success rate :(
Also had a 33 and 32 DNF in the session caused by minor mistakes :(
