Lol. First BLD solve

1:13.94
Memo was
Edges-Uperm (I still have DF buffer)
SA (Sarah Alavi (my gf) eating a QuEsadilla
Joey Ghouly punching Lord Voldemort in the face.
Then UR needed to be flipped with buffer

Then corners
I forget the letters but I had 1 new cycle to break into, and than I had to do R' y' headlights twist. No parity. No solved pieces except for the flipped edge and the twisted corner.

I can't decide whether I like you or not.

I got two solves under my old PB today. First, I got a 1:53.24, and then later on in the day a 1:56.40. I also got a 2:01.20 solve.

All of them were non-lucky, and I felt pretty comfortable during all of them -- the memo was pretty straightforward, and the executions were, for the most part, fluid and constant. I'm looking more and more forward to the competition this Saturday!

After the compo, I'm going to do a bit of revising to my memorization methods. I'll probably redo my lettering scheme, taking out my two buffer stickers, and swapping bad letters out for easier ones (I'm looking at you Q). Do you guys skip letters in your lettering scheme, or do you just go straight through? I feel like it would be advantageous to use A-P, R-T, and V and W and another letter, but I'm not sure. Maybe I just need to suck it up, and hard-code some Q images into my head.

Edit: Actually, to be honest, I guess another way to do it would be to take out all the vowels (except 1, obviously), because I sometimes have a lot of trouble with them. I'm reluctant to do this, though. Thoughts?

I originally posted this in the failures thread - but I'm glad to have regained my 5BLD speed, even if it's a DNF. :)

DNF(9:06.09)[3:35], last weekly comp 18 scramble. Off by 2 flipped midges and 2 +centers.
I'm very satisfied with the memo, but fast memo usually indicates that there are fewer cycles - so I expected the execution to go faster.

Wow, what's your PB?
