10/12 22:22.79[14:00 ish]

A slow time with 2 wrong cubes (one edge cycle and one twisted corner) but basically realised what I've been doing wrong:

*Using multiple letter pairs for the same word. i.e. **** as PS and wee as WE etc.
*Confusing letter pairs, i.e. accidentally switching things like a chocolate coffin for a coffin of chocolate, etc. Not a good example, but hopefully you know what I mean.

I know exectly what you mean especially on the 2nd one.
I find that even though an image / sentence in a particular location can be very vivid I can still reverse the order in recalling.
In my last 5BLD I had in a particular location "a FossiL being cleaned by LyNn with IPa" (grammar doesn't translate too well ) but risk is that I recall Lynn is cleaning a fossil with ipa. So in sitiuations like this I try to use alternative letterpairs and make soime thing up that is less prone to errors.


And BTW: thank you for "3-cycle wing commutators for DFr buffer."
I downloaded it earlier this evening and really liked how you included a sheet for modifying the letter scheme.
Edge comms are still very abstract to me but with this sheet I'll hopefully figure them out

That's better than half my 4BLD times, crazy. You better not lolfail at Cambridge.

On pressure on you at all ollie.

You better break the wr or else.

Nah, no pressure at all, really. Even if I DNF x3, and Oleg and Dmitry get results on Sunday, I'll still be in the top 5 in the world which I'm more than happy with. A 7:xx is good, too.

And thanks, good luck for Sunday! Hoping you can at the very least join the official sub-10 club

 

[DrKorbin]

Dunno, probably he is quiting big blinds (again lol).

And thanks, good luck for Sunday! Hoping you can at the very least join the official sub-10 club

Thank you, good luck you too

I finally got a 345 BLD relay success, but it was untimed :fp (my fault) At least I finally got it. My 5BLD was feeling rather fast so I should probably start doing that again.

Memo was really fast (~5:00), so I decided not to use any tricks that I might mess up. 3 seconds from NR
