Blindsolving Failure Thread

12/19 in 50:01.61, biggest attempt ever. Terrible, but at least it shows that I can get the AsR if I improve my accuracy.

woah, wait for me

Wat

Another fail: at ~23 I needed to solve parity + 2e flip, but I panicked and DNF'd
at least I got a 34.86 (pb), and I have another comp the next saturday

16/17 - 52:26.70[32:18.32]
2 twisted corners. Pretty pleased with execution though, I think it's the fastest I've done per cube on anything >5 cubes. Memo could be sub-30.

I plan on sub-50ing the next 17 attempt.

 

[CyanSandwich]

5BLD attempt #1 - made an execution mistake early on and gave up.

5BLD attempt #2 - (39:40.38)[14:20.04] Off by quite a lot of pieces.

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

5BLD earlier about 7:58 (4:26), memo'd a centre wrong. Second sub-8 DNF (both by 2 pieces).

9/17 lol
50:04.45[29:48.91]
2 of them were close, one was off by a lot, and the rest were completely scrambled.

I finished executing what I thought was the last cube in that row only to find there was another one, so I ditched that one and went to the next row. That should explain the scrambled cubes.

Also, during memo I found cube 5 was scrambled the same as cube 4. I solved it, used the cube 5 scramble, but it turned out I had used the wrong scramble for 4 not 5.
So I had a duplicate again, which I then tried to reverse the scramble of, which didn't work. I decided to just hand scramble it.
Wasted a good 3 minutes.

............and I thought I was gaining on you! dayum

3/4 in 23:46.87[18:28.47]

Pretty safe, off by 3 M-slice edges on the last cube, so I think I forgot to do a different alg when centres weren't solved. I think I could do 5 or 6 cubes this weekend if I feel like doing a big attempt.

 

[CyanSandwich]

5BLD attempt #3

DNF 37:02.89[11:40.56]

3 +centers and 4 midges. Yay I'm actually getting close.

 

[CyanSandwich]

15/17 in 50:06.69[28:52.59]

3 edges, 3 corners. I really thought this would be sub-50. Although I did have some recall pauses.

Nice. I don't understand how you guys can be so accurate at multi BLD :O

I just got a 14/19 in 49:35.92. 4 of them were off by 2 flipped edges and the other was by 2 twisted corners

What Antoine said. Except I don't actually review much (review the last 4 cubes every 4, then review all), and it's usually mostly mental review.

Which is probably why:

12/17 46:53.48[28:30.69]

off by J perm on the first cube, 2 twisted corners x 2, one had even edge targets and odd corner targets (doh!), and one slipped out of my hand/misaligned during execution (sweaty hands)

Although at that pace I can fit 21 cubes into an hour, nearly sub-OcR.

 

[CyanSandwich]

14/17 50:16.25[30:33.98]

2 twisted corners, 3 edges, 4e/4c

I'll try again later

Edit: 15/17 48:38.12[28:57.86]

Better. One of them had a fingertrick slip so it was off by a fair amount. The other 3 corners.

 

[CyanSandwich]

So triple post, but more MBLD failures

15/17 48:39.29[28:56.55]

14/17 44:59.33[26:28.50]

Super happy with the 2nd time. Execution's not that much slower than my 3BLD execution. Just need to work on accuracy

EDIT: 4BLD DNF(5:57.99)[1:59.40]

2 centers grr. First sub-2 memo and first sub-6

 

[CyanSandwich]

Sorry for quad posting, but here's my latest multi:

16/17 47:25.98+[27:34.98]

2 flipped edges, because I memorized the wrong sticker.

Someone else fail at blind now

 

[Tim Major]

Did a 3bld attempt was a success so I couldn't post, then DNF 1:58

Now continue chasing Zane's multi OcR :tu

 

[CyanSandwich]

Thanks Tim!

Here's something I'd like to think was because of too much BLD today.

11/17 50:30.46[27:44.02]

I had a recall pause of what felt like an eternity on 3 cubes in a row, had to go through pieces until the letters triggered my memo.

 

[Tim Major]

Realised I was supposed to be doing 4bld in 3 days officially so did an attempt last night at about 11PM. 32 mins because I was tired. Had about 5 minutes for super solid centre memo. Probably knew centres after 3 mins, then about 10 minutes on edge memo which was shaky. Then saw I had 8 corners so I could execute corners before centres without screwing them up. Total memo about 17 mins which is awful.

Then solved corners, edges, then centres before realising I skipped the first room, undid 8 centres, did the first room then did the rest.

32 mins, all centres/corners solved. Off by 8 edges.

I just woke up so I slept for over 11 hours...

I might do one more 4bld before the comp. If it isn't a sub 20 success I'll drop out.
