Blindsolving Failure Thread

[the super cuber]

official 5bld DNF by 2 swapped + centers time was 19:45

would have beat my previous official pb by 14 minutes and my home PB by 4 minutes

DNF(27.59) R D2 L R2 D2 R2 F2 D2 F2 L' R' D F' R U L' B L' F U L' Fw' Uw

2 flipped edges, didn't see one during memo. Execution was really smooth

 

[Ollie]

Hardly a failure. Why not 21 (5 packs of 4 + 3bld)?

I don't have 21 cubes!

 

[Berd]

I don't have 21 cubes!

Hahaha that's funny. When I did my first 3 cube MBLD, I had to use my SS 4x4 as a 3x3 haha. You should try it!

 

[newtonbase]

I don't have 21 cubes!

Guanlongs.

 

[Ollie]

19/20 in 42:26.16[30:xx], pretty much scrambled the first cube. This is getting annoying.

Guanlongs.

Haha, if anything I need less!

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? I cry everytime.... failed a blind avg12 at the last solve because of 2 flipped edges, which I even memoed... than it would have taken me 4 more successes in a row to get an avg12 again, failed at the second solve... Memo was always safe and mostly sub1 and a 1:11 very nice safe single aswell

1/2 MBLD
The 'solved' cube was a U2 away, the unsolved one had corners solved and edges in a mess.
The only good thing was that it was 11:38.40 so that's nice

 

[Iggy]

6:40.02 5BLD DNF, 2 flipped midges

 

[guysensei1]

6:40.02 5BLD DNF, 2 flipped midges

That must hurt

 

[Genius4Jesus]

First ever 4BLD attempt: 7 wrong centre targets, 2 twisted corners, 16 wrong edges.

Memo about 45 mins and execution about 5 mins.

EDIT: Yup, I'm a nub...

You can do it! My first dnfs were a lot worse! Try doing only center/wing solves?

 

[Hssandwich]

4BLD 4th attempt:

DNF, half the cube was solved though, 33/56 pieces.

No corners solved... I must have made an execution error at some point. Somehow, two opposite blocks of centres got switched, probably during wings, but there was still another 2 centres that were not solved from where I forgot my last letter.

Still no success

 

[CyanSandwich]

Goddammit. Fastest ever execution by ~5 seconds

1:01.63[35.14]

I started memorizing in the wrong orientation.

 

[FastCubeMaster]

A bad memory...

When all the kids crowd around in class because I'm about to solve a 3x3 blindfolded.
I ask if I finished the corners (my first step) and they don't reply and I check to see myself (Taking off the blindfold) and...

I Failed.
A few months later I successfully completed it during cross country carnival. Even more people were watching that - "Yay"

Edit: Missed out on an ao25 by 1 DNF on the 2nd to last solve. I memo'd in the wrong orientation lol.

First ever 3BLD attempt, and the cube was totally screwed up at the end... don't even know what went wrong

Also I noticed I have a big problem with memorising cycle breaks. Any links to tips? (since this isn't a help thread)

There is a one answer blindsolving thread but here's a paste from a similar question

When you get to the buffer piece don't memo a letter for it. Your cycle is over. Start a new cycle with any unsolved sticker and continue. The last letter in this new cycle will take you back to the piece that the first sticker is on. Repeat until solved.

Also, try sighted solves with your memo and redo scrambles after you have messed up.

 

[guysensei1]

3/4 MBLD again ;_;

I went safe during memo, I slowed down my execution, I even checked and had to undo 5 letters to fix a mistake. And what do I get? 2 twisted corners. UGH

EDIT: on cam too

Whew! That was close! I know how you feel! Keep it up and you'll get it! But I'll get it first!
