First official 3 BLD result (Zonhoven Open 2012): 7:56.65 with Ron as Judge

Crappy time but happy to get an official solve.
Messed up corner memo and had to check several times to find the error.
During memo Marcell set the new WR

2nd solve should have been a low 5 min but messed up L-perm at the very last edge (still an edge flip to do)

Congratulations!!!

THX Chris!

The upcoming Zune Open at the end of April may have 4 BLD so that will be my next target

 

[Rubiks560]

5/5! Finally! time was 42:39.14, which is really bad for me. I went really slow on memo.

First ever 3x3 Multi success - 2/2 - 24.41.64!

Though technically a failure, I just got a 1/2 in 12:50.84. This was my first multi attempt since the one I quoted. Even though it wasn't a success, I'm pretty happy with cutting 10:00 off of my time from one attempt to the next. I took my time and the memo was pretty comfortable. While solving corners on the 2nd cube, I realized that I had started doing edge algs for no reason, so I had a backtrack and I'm pretty sure that messed me up.

Sub-8 memo again!

What!? 6/6 multi blind! In 38:50.98! Thats faster than my 5/5 yesterday....and on cam too. Sweeeeettt

Congratulations!!! - you've just hit the "sweet spot" of multi. At this point, you'll find that you can keep adding cubes very rapidly until you finally hit the speed barrier for an hour. At your current rate, ten cubes will be quite easy; 12 will start to get a little challenging, probably.

You really should go for the NAR; it's so ridiculously low because no one else really tries. Between you and John, one of you should certainly easily be able to get it.

(Maybe I need to start practicing again. )

Thank you! It means a lot coming from you! I really need a good memo system though...(Right now I just do my normal 3x3 memo for the whole thing.) Do you have anything I should switch to?

 

[BrainOfSweden]

I just (well a few hours ago) did my first succesful BLD. The time was 9:58.80, so it's not that I'm fast or anything. I only used J-Perm and T-Perm for the edges, just to make things easier. I did stop and think a lot though, feels like when I was learning lookahead
If anyone want's to see the solve, here it is:

Please don't mind my hair, a blindfold doesn't make a bad hair day any better

I did not realize until now that the NAR is only 10/10. Mike, why haven't you beaten this already? Are you waiting for someone to take it away from you so you can steal it back?

 

[BrainOfSweden]

Good job! My first solve was 24 minutes, because I had to "count" my way down to the letter that I needed for my corners. I'd say sub-10 as a first success is really good though. Keep going!

Thank you I only visualized the corner, and I can't say they were particularly hard to remember though, the failed attempt before was a lot harder. The reason I failed though was because I forgot to properly undo a setup move on one of the last edges -.-'

 

[jla]

Grattis, härligt med lite fler kubare från västsverige. Fortsätt att öva så kommer du att slå det här hur lätt som helst

Actually, no, I'm just not very good at multi. And about the only chance I have these days at beating it is Nationals (where I got 8/14 and 11/12 last year - at least I tried!) - other competitions either don't have the event or are being run by me, and I don't want to be in an hour-long solve during a competition I'm supposed to be running.

yay my first corners success (and try) using visual memo=) trying ti learn edge memo

Solve faster?
