Blindsolving Failure Thread

I average 1 minute on 3bld, and suddenly I got a lot of DNFS recently so I decided to record my solve. I figured out that I have a problem for N, Q, and B letters in orozco corners, and somehow I literally forgot it. I rewatch tutorials but I can't seem to understand it?? Can you guys give an explanation on what to do for those 3 letters in orozco?

B is really nice. Do nothing and move on to the next letter.

Q and N are corner twists, and the direction depends on whether it's the first or second letter in the pair. The way I think about it is if it's the first letter, then Q or N has to rotate to the B sticker, and if it's the second letter then the B sticker has to rotate to Q or N. I like to bring the corner that needs to rotate clockwise to the front and do that one first, so my two algs are R' D R D' R' D R U R' D' R D R' D' R U' (N second letter or Q first letter) and U R' D R D' R' D R U' R' D' R D R' D' R (N first letter or Q second letter).

I missed 3BLD finals in Stevenage January after coming 3rd in R1 , I thought group 2 was competing after group 1. Turns out they were competing at the same time. Scrambles were good asw

I was trying to get my first 3bld success, and I got a really easy scramble (6 letter pairs, no parity). But I dnfed by 2 twisted corners and 2 twisted edges.

Do you have the scramble?

Tried to go super safe and get a 3 pt MBLD to get my first weekly comp win…but DNFed one cube by 2tc (corner wasn’t in my memo so I think I just missed it) and the other cube was off by 3e2tc…maybe I’ll get at least a podium one day…
