Blindsolving Failure Thread

12:34.5(lol) 7th 4bld attempt. 4:5x memo. Off by 4 wings ( :'( ). Closest ever. First time centers and corners both solved. Often one of the other. idk what went wrong. Well 8 is my lucky number so hopefully I'll get a success next time.

Perhaps forgotten letter pairs? OR confused letter pairs? (i.e. a cat could be executed as CT when you meant CA?)

You're improving so quickly! Would you say sub-2 memo is something you'll be able to do consistently in the near future?

If I ever decide to eliminate reviewing from memo then possibly, yes. But it would be devastating - my success rate would probably drop to 5% as would my enjoyment (for the first few weeks at least.) The review I do after wings, midges and x-centers is really important for me personally.

Be a supamen - review your memo while executing

I think I forgot a letter.
Lol. I barely review. Though I probably should.
 
Another "almost-UWR" failure. 6BLD DNF(16:27) by 3cycle in wings.
The reason is obvious: I learned speed-optimized 3cycles for wings a few days ago, maybe missed an algorithm for one case. I need to get used to it.
Decent execution, but slow memo (over 8 minutes). I will not attach the video, it's on anothher computer (and nobody cares about it anyway).

Last solve was off by 3 centres. Would've been 3:00.50 average of 5.
 
6BLD 17:41. Not an UWR (successful solve though).


I was so exhausted that evening, that's the reason for super slow memo. Also, pauses after every wings 3cycle while execution (I learned speed-optimized for them recently).
But don't worry Oliver, I have whole august to turn UWR back; After that I have to return 6x6 cube to it's owner Dmitry...

Just wanted to decrease UWR time a little bit ^__^
 
I was doing a 6/6 MultiBLD attempt and while solving the last cube I thought I messed up while shooting to FU and I thought "oh, sh*t, that was going well, I'll finish anyway"

When I open My eyes I see the last cube is solved but the rest, in which i had no issues, were not :p

I'll try again tomorrow :)

I did it and realized that I cannot be dumber :o

This time it was 2/6 but realized a couple of things

- only 2 cubes had no parity
- all the missed cubes had UF and BD swapped

I solve corners last in 3BLD but corners first in multi, and I though that as long as I did the OP/M2 parity in between it was alright, well obviously it is not :p

I'll attempt 6 again tomorrow memorizing and solving edges first and hope for my first more than 3 success.
