past 5 attempts at 7BLD:

31:53.94, DNF, 28:43.72, 27:25.09, DNF

1st DNF was off by 10 centers because I was sick and probably memorized wrong
2nd DNF was late at night and off by a D2 and some pieces

for some reason I was expecting to get an avg5...

First time ever doing a full 4BLD. All the centres were perfect, 16 wings were correct, and 6 corners were correct.

I know what I did wrong, it was something in memo. I think I need a proper memo system instead of what I've got right now, but they're quite difficult to make.
 
ARGH!!!!!!!

4BLD DNF - 13:12.94 minutes

Was super confident with memo, and managed to fix a mistake during execution. Was all good until I got to corners...the location was my TV, and so I memoed my 3 pairs as an advertisement that I was watching:

What I executed:

[HP GT CI] = Advertisement voice: "If you want to be happy (HP) then get (GT) some new thighs (CI)!

Correct memo:

[GT HP CI] = Advertisement voice: "Feeling unsatisfied with your thighs? Get (GT) some happy (HP) ones [thighs] (CI) today!"

*sigh*...everything was correct except those damned corners!

You can do it!
 
Hey! I'm trying the 7BLD. I have tried 7 times (I think) and my last attempt was DNF by 6 centers (in 52 minutes) :'/ I'm so excited because it would be the first french 7BLD success! Hope I'll get a success one day!

2-7BLD DNF again. I'm getting closer anyway.

1:44:21.79[55:36.55] - Sub-1:45 though!

6x6 was 2 x-centers off, 7x7 was 3 obliques off.

The 4x4 was a DNF again (every attempt so far). Corners were off by a U2 which explains 4 wings off, but there were also 2 flipped dedges.
