Blindsolving Accomplishment Thread

[Ollie]

Cool:tu
What was your result in multi? And why did you suck in 3x3 final? Did you do attempts blindfolded?

0/5 in multi I hadn't done a 5/5 attempt for months, so the time was around 7:30.xx and memo was much harder to keep in. Not sure why?

And lols, 3x3x3 final went as follows:

1. OLL skip
2. PLL skip
3. DNFed on a y-perm for 19.90
4. Cube explosion
5. BLD solve with memo in inspection. 35s execution is slow, but it did include a 5-10s pause because of rushed memo

Oh, and thanks guys! I wanted to keep it as a surprise in case WR, but 5BLD is plucking stressful is comp. eugh.

3/3 MBLD (20:59.00[13:44.26])

3rd attempt. Got 1/3, 2/3, then 3/3.

Nice
Go for first NZ multi at nats :tu

7:46.91 first timed 3BLD (success, yay!)

Ok, you guys can laugh. It's my first timed 3BLD. (I am still a BLD noob since I didn't do any practicing until a week or so ago and not even much since. Plus, I'm in constant sleep deprivation mode.) Using OP method.

Great job sneaklyfox!

Thanks. I plan on it haha.
Wish I had more cubes though.

Congrats! That's not bad for a first timed 3BLD. Mine was 16:20

If you need to borrow any at nats i have plenty(sometimes i think too many)

 

[CyanSandwich]

Awesome. I'll probably go for 6, hopefully landing 2nd in Oceania.

That's fast for a first timed attempt. My first was twice that.

Congrats Ollie!

[Me]

This thread always makes me wanna learn BLD

Me too, just drop everything and dedicate a day to it. Then... practice...

I spent the weekend redoing my memo scheme and learning the ins and outs of M2.
I'm trying to study up on memo retention and try at least one solve every night. Tonight I got all but three edges off on account that I mixed up some keywords. Sure a DNF but I consider it a success. I signed up for BLD and MBLD for a competition in November, I'm determined to do well, hopefully this isn't my last post on this thread.

That's fast for a first timed attempt. My first was twice that.

That's because I didn't bother to time myself when I was slower.

really unexpected PB. changed the last days my memo order and dropped about 3-4 minutes. had today already a 13:50 dnf and yesterday a 14 dnf. But did not expect to be sub13:30
30 seconds to be subNR!
