Trying it again is different to the first time, coz you might still remember the memo :p

If you want to try the same scramble several times on 4^3, you can simply decide to start from a different angle. Since you're not aiming at the same solved state, the memo will usually be completely different.
 
3x3 bld off by 12 edges and 8 corners, i had a pop just after starting the edges (i did corners first on this solve) and on the 3rd piece, i had a pop, put the piece in the wrong way, messed up the alg, and ruined the whole solve. oh and i forgot all of my edge memo...
 
First full blindfold attempt after spending 3 days getting to know my method in and out. 10:58.60 DNF. Two edges flipped, two corners permuted but not oriented, and two corners unoriented and unpermuted if I remember correctly.

Oh well, I'm getting there. :D

EDIT: Two edges swapped (I think it was the two edges I swap for corners) and I might've forgotten to do parity too.

It's impossible to have two corners unpermuted without also having two edges unpermuted

The two edges that I switched for corners were also unpermuted (UL and UB edge). Forgot to say that.

Might have forgotten to do parity. I don't even remember anymore.

That's a good thing. :p

Because?

Tried again and spent more time memorizing. 11:18.02... DNF again. XD

Corners were easy, so I got those. UL, DF, and DL were messed up. I'm getting closer. :3


I think I might change my memory method for the corners. I use the same method for both edges and corners. I often times confuse what I have to do for corners as what I have to do for edges and vice versa.

what???

I thought I remembered doing them, but I think that was just me running through the exec in my head. Once I saw what had happened I immediately closed my eyes and finished it correctly... but yeah, forgot to do corners.

new failure:
I got a camera but I'm DNFing all my solves right now. I'l post up a vid when I get a good one.
