What are your memo times like?

What are your memo times like?

24ish

Barely know OP/OP, sat down for the first solve of the night determined to improve some, started memoing edges and the first scramble was ~5 2 swaps, buffer, and a solved edge. Gave up immediately

What are the odds of something like that happening?

 

[MrMan]

My first real attempt, got the cycle quickly then memorize it. I'm about to begin when the teacher ask me a question, I answer and then go on execution. After I think 2 long minutes I put the cube on top of the table and see that I was holding it in the wrong orientation, I rotated it when the teachers asked me and I did not even noticed it ...

 

[Rocky0701]

First 3 cube multi attempt and 0/3, off on like 5 edges for the first cube, then 4 corners of the second cube, then like 3 corners, and 4 edges on the last cube.

Keep going [emoji8]

Rocky you and me are like in sync. We started doing bld right around the same time, our bld pbs are very close, and we both just did our first 3 cube attempt!

 

[ryanj92]

~6:30, off by 2 corners and 2 edges... Whoops!

Only notable because it's my first timed BLD solve in what feels like nearly a year

Woah, yeah we are! You wanna have a friendly race to see who can get a 5/5 multi success and a sub 3:00 3BLD ao5 first? I haven't done any more attempts today due to being busy with a new semester, but I plan to do at least two 3 cube multi attempts tomorrow.

Absolutely, that sounds great! I haven't been doing much bld lately, I'll have to change that..
(I just realized, I have a list of goals for myself, and those are literally exactly what I wrote for bld and mbld! (except for I also put a sub-2 single as one of my goals.)

Awesome! Unfortunately I have done 4 attempts since my last post and have gotten 0/3 on all of them. They are always off by like two or three edges or corners.

 

[TDM]

Tried a 7 cube multi. DNF(37:29.90)[25 minutes].

First cube: two twisted corners
Second cube: edge 3-cycle, two flipped edges
Third cube: two swapped edges, two swapped corners, one twisted corner
Fourth cube: solved
Fifth cube: edge 3-cycle (forgot to do parity), 3 corners, one twisted corner
Sixth cube: solved
Seventh cube: two twisted corners

Time was much better than I expected though, I might try 9 next. Or maybe 7, but actually review cubes this time. I reviewed them in my head to check that I could remember memo, but didn't check whether my letters were right or not on the cube. On the second cube, they weren't.
I've still only had one n/n attempt

 

[SirWaffle]

18/25 2:13:50.87, not happy with this result at all, so many petty execution errors.

 

[Genius4Jesus]

1/3 MBLD. One cube I forgot parity and tried to fixed after already solving all my target and then failed. Second cube I don't know what happened. Third cube was solved.

You still using OP/OP ?!

If so then change already ~1min times with OP/OP is getting kind of ridiculous...
