4BLD for Weekly Comp 34:

8:01.33[3:28], 7:38.13[3:17], DNF(6:14.45)[~3min]

The second one is PB, although it was kinda a slow solve.
The 3rd was so fast, but also very lucky. A lot of centers are solved. I only overlooked a 2-cycle of wings.

I don't get it - what's so special about that scramble? I got 1:37.81 on it.

Unless you're talking about using it for fewest moves - that scramble is one of the nicest looking fewest moves scrambles I've ever seen, at first glance. But for BLD, I don't see what's so special about it.

So I start practicing 3BLD for Hungarian Open 2011 and Austria Open 2011.

So I stop practicing BH for some weeks, I will be much faster with M2/OP (mixed with some BH corners).
But after the two comps I have a 3 month break until Austrian Nationals, so I will learning full BH in the autumn.

Anyway, I did 23 solves in the last hour.

number of times: 19/23
best time: 1:13.34
best avg5: 1:24.83 (σ = 6.90) (Old PB avg5: 1:28.36)
best avg12: 1:32.36 (σ = 4.06) (Old PB avg12: 1:40.90)

1:43.89, DNF(2:04.23), 1:30.42, 1:53.44, 1:30.14, 1:36.15, 1:13.34, 1:30.88, 1:32.35, 1:25.93, 1:29.65, 1:35.72, 1:31.16, 1:41.19, DNF(1:32.83), 1:39.54, DNF(1:24.49), 1:19.90, 1:18.30, 1:20.00, 2:03.21, 1:34.59, DNF(1:41.87)

Yes, M2/OP, but also with some BH cases for corners.
Memo is now Letter Pairs for edges, Visual for corners.

Strange, last session memorizing with letter pairs worked really good
This time it sucked, so I just swiched to visual and made this PB avg5. (best avg12 was 1:37.34, but with some slow Letter Pair ones.)

6x6x6 BLD
26:21.40 (15:50ish memo)
Click to expand...

I think I remember this being Chris's current UWR at 6x6x6 BLD (from 6 months ago), which is why I'm excited about this, from this week's weekly competition:

6x6x6 BLD: 26:11.14 [13:11 memo]

The memo was really fast and easy. Execution was only difficult because my 6x6x6 has gotten really mushy and is way too easy to pop. I'm sure I could go at least a minute faster with a better 6x6x6. I do have another brand-new one that I've never restickered or broken in; maybe it's time to finally do that.

Chris, it took me 6 months, but maybe I've finally put pressure on you to try again? :)

Huh, you are right.. Maybe I scrambled wrong?
or posted wrong scramble...

The solve did feel really lucky, so time to get a NL PB

and you are right, it is a really nice FMC sramble!

Whoa Mike, awesome! Congrats! :tu :D

I have to be honest that I've focused mainly on 3x3-5x5 for a while, but I think I can definitely try to get back into BIG cubes BLD a little bit more. Congrats on your solve, that's very impressive!

:) Considering you got your previous UWR as a PB almost 10 minutes faster than your previous PB, I suspect it will take you no more than a few solves to beat this one, too. But it would be appreciated - it keeps me going. And I do think that if I can get a better cube, I can do a little better than this...
 
Um. I just got a 1:30.70 success. My old PB was 1:52.32. And I haven't practiced BLD at all recently.

The solve was such incredible lol.

I got the scramble from the "Cubing teams" thread.
