Holy mother of cubing!!

4BLD: 8:06.16 [4:30]

I am not sure for memo time, I think it was somewhere around 4:30, everything was so nice, memo was smooth, execution very nice also.
I should think about 8min barrier that I set, I may even cross it, and much sooner than I expected.

So happy!!

GOGOGO!

Amazing sub10!! xD
First scramble of the blindfold race

EDIT:

= 4BLD PB =
7:33.29 [3:15]

There goes sub8 barrier.

My first try on 30 cubes ever:
3x3x3 MBLD: 24/30, 50:44.05 [~29:00]

Impossible is nothing
But too many dnfs xD

The recent results in this thread are both motivating and depressing

4BLD is being done faster and faster
I will never be this fast

As I have had several 4BLD sucesses I guess it is now time to step out of the comfort zone and try to rush both memo and exec.

Based on a recent discussion in the BLD failures thread I have already decided to switch to corners first.
The extra thinking / corrections for the “center-turns” with Old Pochmann should be more than compensated for by reduced memo time for corners.
(memo last-solve first)

Prepare for a DNF fest

Good luck, although I won't suggest "rushing".

So many centers solved. First scramble from weekly comp 2012-31.

 

[CHJ]

Broke sub-3 3BLD finally! PB was 3:01 but i managed to get a 2:28 then a 2:24! All i need now is to learn a better corner method and break sub-1 memo, which i did but DNF'ed. Also i've got my 4BLD memo down to 15-25 mins compared to my previous 30-40 mins, all i need for this is a success, come too close too many times!

It's been a while since I got something nice like that. Non-lucky in any way, just very very nice memo.
My memo got much worse last 2 weeks, I barely sub30, which compared to sub20 from before is terrible.

What memo dd you use?

 

[Ollie]

Switched from 3OP corners to 3-style for all BLD today. Memo for 5BLD is now sub-5mins and execution is just over 5mins. Closing down sub-10.

RARRGH

 

[AbstractAlg]

What memo dd you use?

Letter-pair words for edges, they were in pairs 2-4-2-2.
Letter-pair images for corners, 2-2-2.

New PB by 22 seconds. I should start to practice more than around 2 solves each week... Anyway, great to finally beat by old PB after 6 weeks
