Blindsolving Failure Thread

[Jakube]

I had a 4:49.xx [2:14] today at KFC, off by 2 centers. Memo mistake, M instead of N

Great solve, felt very fast. Reset the timer as I stopped it >.>

 

[blakedacuber]

just did a BLD solve 20:33.94 DNF by 2 corners and 2 edges memo was something like 12 mins because i quad checked used pure op just to build some confidence in BLD will switch to m2 once i get consistent

also this would have been my first BLD solve

 

[blakedacuber]

22:51.13 DNF pretty much half solved also i dropped cube half way through so i blame that

Edges mean 10/12: 21.18
18.98, 23.24, 24.76, 20.72, 18.77, DNF(23.59), 19.67, 19.33, DNF(28.74), 25.25, 17.88, 23.20

Corners mean 6/12: 37.80
25.37, DNF(1:08.53), 38.35, 45.43, DNF(50.70), DNF(1:21.74), DNF(1:25.71), 49.07, 37.79, DNF(24.80), 30.81, DNF(52.41)

Edges using audio and M2
Corners using audio and 3style

I'm going to have to switch to the memo method Zane uses if I want to get any good - I can't visual the corners, and I can't audio the whole thing :s

It's a failure because I suck at corners. I was quite pleased with the edges though. (No parity on any solve though - I solved all the corners for the edges only solves, and vice versa.)

 

[amostay2004]

Err wait what? That's really fast for edges (if memo is included)

 

[lucarubik]

yes
really fast edges!
I like practicing with edges and corners scrambles at PPT and it takes me almost the same to solve edges and corners

 

[Stefan]

Edges 21.18 using audio and M2
Corners 37.80 using audio and 3style

Corners so much slower despite much fewer than edges with same memo... must be the execution method so you should try R2

Nah, I guess you'll be faster with 3style eventually. Can you tell why you're "slow" with it right now?

 

[Faz]

Actually, aronpm pointed out to me that 3style was speed optimal, so I guess I just use freestyle. I'm getting used to the lettering scheme and doing comms while BLD.

 

[RyanReese09]

3 DNFs yesterday at Harvard
1st-slow DNF. Entire U layer off basically. Think I forgot to undo a U for a comm or something when I did corners.
2nd-Timer fail. .11. No redoing
3rd-1:28.xx DNF triple memo check safety solve. 2 twisted corners (one twisted to begin with). Argh. I hate twisted corners .

Waiting for Tim to post scrambles so I can go over my solve and see where the heck I went wrong.

 

[cuboy63]

2:38.96, DNF(3:44.61), 3:34.25, 3:09.47, DNF(3:15.00)

 

[Riley]

Closest BLD solve ever, I messed up the ending undo set up move, leading me to 2 moves off.

 

[ben1996123]

4:11.75 with M2 edges, DNF by UF and UR flipped.

 

[Tim Major]

Ryan: someone said there were 3 twisted corners, maybe you thought there was only 2? Seems feasible to me
Also didn't Tim post the scrambles in the thread?

 

[RyanReese09]

Yes, as done in Harvard thread I found and posted what went wrong.

When I went to twist corners, I did a 3 move setup into sune twist. Unknowing to me, there were actually two sets of twisted corners. I did not see the DRB corner twisted at all. Thus I thought the sune twist would work just fine.

 

[minime12358]

12:45.99 DNF- Sq1bld. Kinda random, tried making the tables in my head as I went by memorizing the cube shape. Off by 4 corners and 4 edges

 

[aronpm]

multibld ragequit: 4/16 in 24:08.60

Memo was 18:03, and I executed 8 cubes, then realized that the last 3 of them were solved from the wrong routes (I just completely skipped 3 routes).

Third cube I solved was off by 4E4C (classic mistake, I know... ^^; ), so it couldn't have been 16/16, but it still could've been sub30 ; w;

 

[blakedacuber]

Aron you such a boss aside from the fact u failed pretty bad the fact that you did it fast was inspirtational

 

[x-colo-x]

4bld avg of 5 4:31.32
04:14.64, 04:05.86 (DNF), 04:11.84, 04:51.36,04:27.96

It's pb avg by 22 seconds but it's a fail:
4:05 was off by 2 centres
4:27 pop
could have been at least 10 s less

 

[CRO]

3x3 BLD DNF by 3 edges..

Was my first try on whole cube though
