1:43.71 DNF. Off by 2 flipped edges. Would've been my second best solve and my first sub-2 mo3.

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

2-5 bld relay dnf in 37:56

2x2 was solved
3x3 was solved
4x4 was off by 3 wings
5x5 was off by 2 +-centers

Sooo close that it hurts Will try again tomorrow tho

19:50.67[8:15.47] off by 3 corners lol.

Kinda glad it was a DNF. Missing UWR by ~2 seconds once was enough

2-5 bld relay dnf's

yesterday: 6 wings on 4x4, r2 + 2 wing targets on 5x5, 37 min

owell, next time I guess

Two failures in one (3BLD)

32.957,DNF(23.987), 36.806

23 was an insanely easy scramble but I missed a flipped edge in memo, which would've taken up another second or two (Still would've had a PB single with that though)...

Off by 2 swapped centers. Might have been PB I think

Attempted a 2-cube MBLD, but 20 minutes ran out on the attempt to memorize. Thus I did not get to turn the cubes at all. Most of my practice has been to perfect the method. MBLD was the only BLD-type event offered at my first competition.

10:38 4bld DNF by 2 centers. Memoed last center pair correctly as XR, executed as XS for some reason :/ PB (and only success so far) is 21:45. :/

Do you prefer using X for letter pairs instead of replacing it with Z?

Yeah, I've never really had a problem with it. With audio (which I use for centers), I pronounce it kind of like Z anyway.

Edit: 6:33 DNF. 2 centers, 3 wings, and forgotten corner parity. Less than a third of my pb. I should maybe slow down.

MBLD tip: don't try more cubes than you have ever done before in comp when you haven't done a real attempt in over 2 months

Official 21/28 in 60:00
lol

I also had 3 duplicate scrambles that had to be replaced

how did you memorize? in sets of how many cubes?

 

[Cale S]

[/QUOTE]

[TheSilverBeluga]

Attempted my first ever blindfolded solve, was off by BM and CI edges and a D2. So close

 

[Hssandwich]

Failed a mean this weekend, 2 flipped edges

 

[Torch]

9:26 4BLD DNF by 3 centers, would have been PB. I misremembered DH as DO.
