Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

1) I did eight attempts at 3x3 bld attempts yesterday.
2) All successful, times from 2:38 to 4:31

Even though 2) is very good for me, I consider 1) the bigger achievement.
 
I have learned BLD, over the past few days, and after 5 full attempts and 4 DNFs, I did my first successful blind solve, in 14:47.70. :D (10 minutes of memorization and 4 minutes of solving) Although on my second attempt I had just 2 incorrectly oriented edges, but it was in 18:23.

the 8th was a pretty cube too but I was still excited :P
Im working on efectivity (does this word exist?) this days
 
Success today, Aprox 15 minutes.
Lots of procrastination, trying to make up images, and figuring out what to do.

the other attempts today where failures from not remembering stuff(trying to rush and change my memo) and messing up Edges (my corners are rock solid)
Got parity on all 5 of my attempts, tomorrow I am going to try and do 10+ attempts (Sitting in a car.... doing nothing.... O.O so boring)
 
Success today, Aprox 15 minutes.

Yay! Congrats! :tu

Lots of procrastination, trying to make up images, and figuring out what to do.

Encoding and decoding the images gets much faster with more practice. Eventually it gets to be completely second nature, and you don't even have to think to recall your images (or to recall which letter pair goes with which image).

Awesome job! Good luck with your solves tomorrow!
 
3bld in statistics class at school with annoying noobs staring in ~6:20ish.

Other stuff that happened: Someone popped my megaminx, square 1 and said sorry for breaking them, everyone was throwing my cubes around and someone dropped my lubix guhong, I took an F1 for other people to use and I would just use my guhong but they decided not to do that. lol
 
Solved a pyraminx BLD, lol. Time was 1:52.78.

Memoing edges with letter pairs, centers with numbers, tips visual.
Solving centers with sune/anitsune, edges 3style.

Scramble and solve:
U L U L' R' B U' B' R L R l' b' u'

Moves in [parentheses] are face moves. F, D, L and R.

Tips:
u l b

Centers:
(R U' R' U' R U' R' U' z)*3

Edges:
[D] R B' R' (L R' L' R' U' R' U) R B R' [D'] EDIT: I could have done [D] [R'] (L R' L' R' U' R' U) [R] [D'].
[D'] L R' L' R [D]
L R' L' R
