Yo MLSTRM, how is your bigBLD coming along?

It's doing pretty well actually
PB's are now 7:xy for 4BLD, and 14:xy for 5BLD. I'm floating around 8-10 for 4 and 15-19 for 5 on normal solves though. Got a comp this weekend, hopefully the last month of crazy practice will pay off

Nice!
Good luck coming weekend

Does anyone know of anyone who has done a 3BLD with purely visual memo? I am about to give it a go.

AFAIK Clément Gallet user purely visual memo even for 5bld. In 3bld he has very good accuracy.

A solution for the cycle Ubl > Dbl > Ufr? x-centers if that's unclear.

A solution for the cycle Ubl > Dbl > Ufr? x-centers if that's unclear.

r' U2 rUl2U'r'Ul2U r
This optimal and is an r' setup into an A9

r' U2 rUl2U'r'Ul2U r
This optimal and is an r' setup into an A9

Do you have a solution that is more of a basic commutator? And how would the cycle Ubl > Dfr > Ufr be done?

 

[Applecow]

i would use the 3x3 UBL DFR UFR comm: [r' F' r2 F r, U2]

I would do UBL > DFR > UFR like this: z2 y' [R2 U R2 U' R2, D2] y z2

E: I read that you meant X-centers. Forget this

That is brilliant, thank you kind sir.

That is a columns case. It does not get much better than what I said I can rewrite it as [r'U2:r,Ul2U'] if that helps. or you can use the 5 move insertions I see in the other posts.
Ubl->Dfr->Ufr is the mirror of the previous one. l' U'r2U' l Ur2U' l'U2l

If you just want an easy to see setup to a pure comm. you could use l2U'

Does this help?

Well, it did, but I was looking for something from the standard ABA'B' approach. Like the 2 swap adjacent, if you get what I'm trying to convey. I know and have generated my set of algs for BH, but I prefer simplicity over optimal for centers Like Applecow's solution, I can clearly see what's happening. r' is to bring the opposite pieces to F and B faces, leaving the lone on U.

Any tips for remembering setup moves when doing comm bigcube centers? I always forget them :/

My only advice is to do them the same way every time so that you gain instincts for it. And I'm not just saying the same way for each time you do a certain commutator, be consistent within groups of cycles so that you can recognize a certain type and know exactly what to do.

Could someone tell me a good 5BLD parity Alg? One that does the same as the M2/OP parity alg on a 3x3 when you solve edges first. (The parity Alg needs to fix the M-Slice, and swap the entire UB edge with the entire UL edge.

Add an M2 to the end of your edges and a UBR target at the end of corners so that UBL and UBR are swapped and DF and UB are swapped. Then when you want to solve the parity, which can be any time after centers are solved, do F2 (Rw2 F2 U2 r2 U2 F2 Rw2) y T-perm y' F2.

hey all I just wnat to can solve rubiks cube blind
I mean that is awesome .. so can you help me how I can start ?
just if I must named all pices or witch metod I can do ..or something like that...

please help me..

I got a successful solve a week after watching this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=idRv29MhQ74

And once you understand the method and how to solve watch this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JNpJaRccRE

It's much much easier then it looks, you don't need a good memory and you don't need to be a genius, it's really really simple.

After you got like 4-5 successful solves watch this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUSzQ4LBWiw

it's a different method to solve the edges, it's much faster but just a bit harder to understand.

Good luck and ask here if there's something you need help with.

Beginner 3BLD tutorials?

None of the ones on youtube seem to help, is there any good ones in text that you know/learnt from?
