Blindsolving Failure Thread

[newtonbase]

I've had worse. Just do some practice, try to go slow and turn careful if you need to. Remember the comp is about having fun, so try not to stress too much about your solves. I have a comp the same weekend with 3BLD..

Thanks. Just tired and fed up. I managed to stretch the streak to 8 before giving up. I'll maybe go back to some edges or corners only tomorrow.

2/11 Multi in 59 mins. Anyone know where I could buy a high quality noose?

How careful was your execution?
Going "kinda fast" often results in higher accuracy than going slow.

Execution was fastish I guess, memo also wasn't super slow, but...

The way I memo is pretty bad imo, but this is the first time it's been a huge problem. I've always just done memo 2, review 2, move on. Not even with a final review at the end. Even though I review on the cubes I still think I need to find something better. After this trainwreck, I'm motivated to actually fix it because obviously my previous attempts were more or less flukes (Including a 9/11 in 55 mins that wasn't far from being 11/11).

Or maybe the fail was a fluke. It can go both ways.

Yeah you should at least do a final review at the end. Whatever extra time you spend on that will probably be saved-ish during recall.
Oh and if you don't already (you probably do), do the last cube as a 3BLD.

1. DNF(26.66) F2 D' F2 L2 B2 D' R2 U L2 D U' F' L' F D B R D' B' L2 U'

GS instead of YS. Fun.... exe error not memo

Any comms?

 

[Berd]

Any comms?

Surely....

 

[mark49152]

Surely....

I ask because she recently posted a 36 second solve which was pure M2/OP with very fast memo. Incredible...

 

[SirWaffle]

Any comms?

Yeah some comms but the wrong comms haha, I did the comm for GS instead of YS is what my comment meant

Edges or corners?

 

[newtonbase]

Y? I only go up to X. Do you miss one out?

I replace X with Y due to nicer letter pairs.

3BLD attempt 14: 12:39 (DNF). Off by 2 corners -_-

 

[Hssandwich]

Nooooooooooooooo! 8:14 4BLD DNF by 2 twisted corners! I memoed CHoWN, but executed O instead of W!

 

[YouCubing]

ughhhh I hate my life
3BLD 8:28 DNF, forgot to do parity

 

[h2f]

5bld - first sub-20 solve and sub 10 memo: 19:43. DNF by few wings (undid wrong setup) and 2 x-centers (wrong memo? exec?).

That happens a lot. I memo letter pairs and if I get an odd one at the end I remember a superhero. Superhero equals parity. I try to execute after solving edges and if I forget then I have another chance after corners.

I add a Z to the last pair.
