First good session in a while:

number of times: 26/35
best time: 1:09.17
worst time: 2:11.78

current mo3: 1:38.52 (σ = 31.49)
best mo3: 1:18.53 (σ = 2.62)

current avg5: 1:28.08 (σ = 9.30)
best avg5: 1:18.53 (σ = 2.62)

Avg5 is PB by a lot! and single is 2nd best time ever

I really really want sub-1...

Goal: sub-1 before school starts (in august)...

3BLD PB. From the weekly comp

 

[AbstractAlg]

14/14 multiBLD for Weekly Competition 2012-27, 57:02.73 [39:57].

Not quite a PB (about 40 seconds too slow), but this is only the second time I've done 14 cubes successfully, and it's been about a year since the last time, so it's nice to get it. Oh, and I started it at 2:30 AM.

wow. nice.

- - - -

did 1:04 3bld with completely new corner memo method.
audio corners are insane.

MBLD: 7/7 in 41:06.01.
Comments: Memo about 32 minutes. First time trying 7 cubes, never tried 6 cubes before. Memo felt really secure, and I'm glad to know that I have 20 minutes leftover. No big pauses.

5:26.31 3x3 BLD

I learned one week ago. I've done forms of practice, but only 7 full attempts - 5 of which I have had successes on. The 5:26 is my most recent and best solve.

Wow, John, you're getting fast! Congrats!

Wait, WHAT?!
30.53[6.53] D2 B F L2 R2 F D2 L2 F' R2 D2 U L U L2 B U2 F R B' D'
12 edges + 4 cornes + 1 twist = 17 pieces to memorize
17 pieces / 6.53 s = 2.603 PPS
I also had a little pop during execution, but who cares?

Now an explanation.
Today I tried a new training method:
-First session of the day: some safe solves, 95-100% accuracy (I did 19/20 because I missed a flipped edge). Today's average: 42-44 s
-The "middle": some normal-fast sessions, like 50-75% accuracy. Today's average: 34-35 s (kinda low for me, I think I was a bit lucky today)
-Last session of the day: Super-Iper-Extra fast memo, like you drank 100 coffee and your heart is about to explode. Usually I get 1-2 succesful solves every 15 when I do this. Today's average: low 7 (for memo, 'cause most of times I give in the middle of the edges execution, because I forgot them). Why I do this? now, is mainly to get able to look at the pieces faster and faster. That's the real problem for me: if I want to memorize a cube in, lets say, 5 seconds, I must first be able to look at all the pieces in 5 s, and then be abel to memorize them in such a short time. I think I'm getting some good results this way (regardless that 6.53 memo). Anyway, this method is highly experimental. (Don't try this at home)

So that 6.53 memo is something crazy, far away from my memo average (which around 9.5, I guess).

LOL

I like your super-memos

I know. just saying.

9:21.84 4BLD. PB by like two minutes. I think memo was like 4:20ish so execution has a lot of work to do.

 

[Maskow]

Not blindfold cubing but memory accomplishment:
I did my first try on "one hour numbers". (I like to memorize numbers but I rarely do it :F I never trained it)
I memorised 1000 digits in 58:40 with my memory system for cubes.
Result:
987/1000
880 points (+40 points for each line of 40 digits without mistake and +20 for line with only one mistake)

I forgot one sentence (3 images, 6 digits) and I did 7 other mistakes because I'm not accustomed to numbers and I did mistakes in "execution".
1000 digits are for me like ~50 cubes (500 images/~10 per cube = 50 cubes )

The world record is 2660 points

 

[qqwref]

OK, now you have to try to multiBLD 50 cubes in unlimited time

 

[Maskow]

If somebody will give me the cubes I can try even 100 or more, no problem.
In this moment I have only 46

First sub-5!
