Blindsolving Failure Thread

3 more dnfs

3rd try was off because forgot to execute 4 wings in the middle
4th try forgot parity for +centers and messed up xcenters
5th try off by 2 +centers again :(
 
off by a corner 3 cycle

I'm losing hope....
 
I failed my one year delayed 4BLD. Memo was (shockingly) correct. But I think the cube rotated in the box, despite the paper I'd wedged in there. Gah.

I'll think of something to upload with the fail video to make amends. :)
Wait what? Surely you had the sense to put it in the box the cube came in so that it fit neatly and couldn't rotate at all?

Oh no! Delayed 7BLD this year? :)

I remember flinching when I saw you use a round box... I flinched again when I saw @SirWaffle was going to use a round box for her delayed 6BLD, but phew, she put tape on the front face of the cube :).

Consistent memo but I forgot the beginning of my corner memo on the 3rd one so I gave up after 10 seconds trying to recall. Ahhhh!
(btw the corner memo was UB HM FT N which gives an UBer driving in H&M and having black feet (FT is feet and N gives "noir", black in French), pretty nice story)
 
sub 6 memo
I didn't rotate back correctly after executing a comm

DNF (19.90) L2 F L2 F L2 F2 L2 D2 B F2 L B2 U' R U2 R2 B D U F
 
double post
DNF(18.78) R2 F U2 B' U2 F D2 L2 F2 L2 B' D' R2 F U' B' L U2 F2 L2 U

Looking back at the scramble, I memoed everything correctly. And i did all the comms. The cube is off by a 4 cycle of corners and edges, so I'm pretty sure I only made one wrong move
 
my second sub 19 DNF that's off by 2 flipped edges

DNF(18.98) R2 D B2 F2 U F2 D2 F2 L2 U B2 R' F' R2 F' U2 L' R' F' U

Well year delay 5bld was an epic fail (gonna do 6bld at a later time)

I got a pop. I managed to find both the pieces and get them back in but by that point all hope was lost. Still though i executed to the end of my memo, but as you can imagine it did not turn out well :p

Was really hoping to succeed but oh well still had fun :)

Video to come shortly
