Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

2/2 multi blind success! Yay! Second success ever. 13:09.60. I did this at like 11:30 last night and was tired - I forgot parts of my memo and just sat there for probably a total of 4 minutes, trying to remember. I almost executed edges (and parity!) on the wrong cubes, but I realized my mistake after a couple pieces and fixed it.
Side note: I'm learning TuRBo, and it's awesome!
Side note 2: I'm gonna try 3 cube multi later if I have time! Wish me luck!

8/8 in 37:19.76. It was on cam but my computer went to sleep as I started execution, and my webcam stops recording when I do that >.< DO'H! Whatever, pretty decent time and finally got 8/8.

Awesome! Proportionally, you should be able to manage 12.

You really need to turn off that feature when you're doing big BLD attempts. :)
 
Second attempt at multi. 2/2 20:21.654[14:44.224]. Trying to get to 4 cubes in time for Harvard Spring.

EDIT: 27:30.093[20:27.296] Finally a 3/3 on my fifth attempt. Also, a 2:50 3BLD.

Today I got my first BLD success, the time was 13min01sec with 9min memo (no edges in place and 2 corners twisted).
It could have been a lot faster But I decide to do a slow solve that would give me a higher chance at a success.
Still I'm very happy about this :)
 
wow, and he's just using OP/TuRBo! Try using commutators next time! ;)

Also, I got 4 successes in a row today, which was pretty good for me as my success rate is pretty low, and earlier in the day I had gotten only 1 success out of 15 (?) . lol i suck. Times were 1:31, 1:51, 1:46 and 1:43 i think. All hand scrambles.

Thanks :)
But I don't think so. Last week I did 23/23 in 51:25.80. I have it on my youtube channel, the same number of points but 44 seconds faster. Or am I wrong? : D

You're right. I suspect your last week solve is the official-rules UWR. But wow, this week's is promising. I remember when people were laughing at me a couple of years ago when I said I thought 30/30 was possible in under an hour. Now it looks like you're actually close to it! Gogogo
 
MultiBLD is awesome, I wish I had more time to practise it. Every attempt with >20 cubes is amazing.
At the moment, I only have time to practise 3BLD:

I like how you are attempting 25 cubes in 52 minutes, and the record for 14/14 is still 50 minutes :O
Click to expand...

Is there really a 14/14 in 50 minutes now, or are you just rounding down my even more pathetic 56 minute 14/14?

It's hard to tell, since you haven't updated your records page in so long... (hint, hint)

TuRBo edges, OP corners. I know some commutators for corners but I'm still using them too slow.

I think, that results about 40 are possible. There are many things to improve.
My memo is fast but I still recall everything 4 times and my memo system has a lot of holes. To realize human abilities look at the world records in memory sports. It's amazing what they can do.
About solve time in multi... Look at Marcell Endrey ;)

I quite agree - when I was thinking 30/30, it was a couple of years ago (and memory sports records had something to do with my opinion). Since then it's become obvious to me that 30 was an underestimate, but it seemed rather outlandish at the time.

To be honest, I'm now thinking 60 isn't completely out of the question. (Time for me to be called crazy again. :)) Unfortunately, I don't think I have the talent to ever compete at anywhere near that level, though. But you might.
