Blindsolving Failure Thread

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

5BLD: slow memo, lots of pauses and recall issues, many pieces not solved (I suspect a wrong twist somewhere), then to top it all off I realised afterwards I forgot to check the scramble type before I started and it was actually a 4x4 scramble.

Trying to get first success. I forget edge memo. After I finish the corners which were all solved there is a video.

^ I'll check it out.

If one of the DNFs were a success (only needed to be sub-1:43) this would have been PB.

3BLD:
40.75, (35.26), 1:03.69, 41.21, DNF(35.05) = 48.55

Could have been 39.07. Last one was off by 2 twisted corners.

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

~ 9:38 (5:33), 5BLD fail because I somehow did an unusual setup move for a comm and cycled the wrong pieces in confusion. One of the most hideous scrambles I've had, 18 +-centres, 21 x-centres, 28 (!) wings. I just want to beat my PB already .

6:28.20 5BLD DNF, 3 wings. Fastest attempt so far

 

[qaz]

[rock1313]

7x7 blindfolded attempt no 7: DNF (1:2x:xx) by alot of pieces

during the last stages of edges I notices a huge error during my memo and I just rage quit. If all the edges were solved, I would be off by like 19 centers.

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

5BLD 9:08 (5:09): memo should have been faster, messed up a turn and made a mistake with +-centres somewhere.

 

[Iggy]

6:24.41 5BLD DNF, 2 flipped midges and 3 x-centers. Fastest attempt so far. I don't get how reviewing wings less made my x-center accuracy drop. :confused:

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

8:49.39 (4:54.35): messed up a turn apparently. Starting to get slightly annoyed.

Cmon, we need a third sub-10 for the UK now Oleg is no 2!

2:35.61 4BLD DNF. I think I messed up wing execution

[Jaysammey777]

5BLD: DNF (54:05.81)[32:xx.xx]

2nd attempt. First was in August.
2 twisted corners and 2 x-centers. I'm slow.

 

[SpicyOranges]

After 19 DNFs on 3BLD, another one! Wasn't timed, and I forgot the last pair for my corner memo.

5BLD DNF(10:34.15)[5:54.15][5x]
