Trying to make sure you win, eh?

I really want to at least place.

What comp?

I might be able to give you a run for your money next Saturday, Xishem...if I can get a success in competition for once...

It will definitely be close. Good luck, either way.

Man! Time to buy good cubes! You could have been close to 20min with such memorization.:tu

^^ Thanks, that would have been good. I am going to try to convince the club to use some of the money we won from the YCDTRC competition (1000 dollars towards our club) to buy a large amount of ultimates once they are switched over to the zhan chi.

And also, that memo was unusual; I dont know what it was about it, but although the day was terrible memo wise, I could add images very easily! It was very very strange; the journey was Sooo cloudy yet sticking was just so good. It really was a fast memo compared to what I usually do.

Congratulations. How many years of practice did it take to achieve this amazing accomplishment?

First ever sub-2 3BLD success, done weekly comp 17

You guessed it. Another PB.

1. DNF(2:19.31)
2. DNF(2:28.45)
3. DNF(2:40.61)
4. DNF(2:49.84)
5. DNF(1:59.22)
6. 2:11.55
7. 2:00.08
8. DNF(2:34.78)
9. 2:05.57
10. DNF(2:10.89)
11. DNF(2:07.73)
12. DNF(3:19.62)
13. 2:51.07
14. DNF(4:41.97)

Got the PB with the 2:00.08. Kinda wished it would have been sub-2, though Oh well. Also, got some other really good solves for me, including the DNFs. I wish I would have gotten 3 or 4 solves in a row so I could have gotten a Ao3 or Ao5 PB, but I'm still happy with the practice I got from these solves. It was some really good practice for me. Always room to improve, though!

Don't get too fast otherwise I'll have to practice :3.

 

[Xishem]

Don't get too fast otherwise I'll have to practice :3.

I don't think you'll have to worry about that any time soon You've got me on TPS as you're quite a bit faster speedsolving, plus I'm starting to feel the limit of my execution times using my current method.

Edit: Also, I need to take the time to make a set letter pairs list. I'm dreading doing that.

 

[RyanReese09]

My TPS during BLD is pretty slow since I'm afraid of pops on my 3x3x3. If I went full TPS for the entire solve I could probably shave 10 or more seconds off. I do Y perm in a bit over 2 seconds (slow) during BLD, if I was to gogo (highly increase pop chance) I would be doing Y perm 1.2-1.3 everytime, not to mention my edge execution would be faster.

Hmm, I think I'm going to actually BLD fast turning and see how long until I explode my cube. My execution is only where it is because of my recalling...
Edit-lol, just tried a solve, 4th Y perm in and my U layer exploded.

Borrow my Lunhui then?

 

[RyanReese09]

The only cube I don't lockup on during BLD is my elite. Lockups sometimes make me forget where I am in the alg and thus I waste time. Your cube locks up :3.

Ya, I finally started on this too because my current memo method is not effectively applicable to multibld. Luckily my old Star Wars-related hobby that I had before cubing provides a ridiculous number of possible images.

Didn't you start this a few months ago?

Letter pairs speed up memo SOOOOOOOOO much. Once you get fast as recalling which is which.

 

[Xishem]

Really? I blast through my Y perms. Probably 1.2-1.3 (edit: I lied. Probably more like 1.6-1.7), like you said. I generally do my setup moves as fast as I can possibly turn and recall, as well as my M2s.

What cube are you using? Guhong Elite?

started and never finished, and I now have a different idea of how I want to do it

Yeah Elite. We should take this to PM if you want, we are spamming the thread. ANd I was going to call you out on 1.3 Y perm since that TPS isn't really achieved when you're like 18-19s (from what I've seen, not saying it's impossible) :3.

And ok uber.

 

[minime12358]

I wasnt sure whether to put this in the failure thread or the accomplishments thread as the following multi bld attempt was so fail it was just about a win.

So, 8 cubes out on the table... Take off blindfold and.. whats this? 0/8!

Im reviewing and wondering how this possibly happened. I then realized that For some odd reason, I memod from left to right as I usually do, but then I solved from Right to Left :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp

If only it was an odd number of cubes.. I would have potentially gotten 1 xD. Whhatt was I thinking starting from the wrong end :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp

Edit: Oh, and to you guys about the elite/lun hui whole thing: Im waiting on getting a good cube (Ultimate, for me) until donovan switches to zhan chis which will hopefully be pretty soon.
