o... thats smart

Thanks, but when I ran into letters where I couldn't find anyone I just ignored the letter.
[Edit] Just had a look at your WCA profile

 

[TheMachanga]

I also need help. How do I know when to pieces are switched at the end?

 

[Zane_C]

Just use your visual memory. if you're talking about fixing the parity, you do it when your've switched the edges or corners an odd number of times.

Haha, this made me laugh. It was quite obvious that you didn't knew he Alex was. And his silly English combined with his ability to make everything sound so easy doesn't make him look like an expert.

Try using a PAO system:
-Give every sticker/position a person, action and object.
-Memorise person of [target 1], memorise action of [target 2], then memorise object of [target 3]
- Then just repeat that until you go through all targets.
-I use visual memory to work out where the permuted but wrongly flipped edges and corners are.

I Hope that was of assistance

That's a REALLY bad system for a BLD single. If you want to get better than 4:58, I suggest you get a new memo system

What do you suggest I try? What method do you use?

Point being? I thought I wrote 'who', not 'he'.

And to add something to the real discussion. I use Person, Action/Object and I've got avg of 5 at 1:30 with M2 and Old P. So the system isn't crap for singles.

 

[Zane_C]

cool, I would still like to see what blah uses.

 

[KConny]

I'd still like to see why you quoted me and just put a part of my post in bold.

I only did it becuase you said something about silly english and so I made your sentence bold that didn't make sense. Just forget it.

err,do you use the pao for corners too ?
i find my corners memo is extremely slow
i don't have a system to memo corners,just simply tapping
but it tooks too much time for me ..

BLD edge help?

Hello everyone I need help with a BLD issue obviously.
So when I am doing edges or corners I may get a edge or corner in it spot to go to.
What do I do?
I can't seem to grasp taking it out and how to remember it?
Can someone link me to a very good video explaining how to memorize it?

[Carson]

Are you using old/classic Pochman?

If so, just pick an edge or corner that you haven't yet used, and "shoot" to that corner. You will later run into the piece that REALLY goes there and you will shoot to the same piece again. You maybe have to do this multiple times with both corners and edges.

If you mean the edge or corner is already in it's right position but flipped wrongly, there are 2 ways:

1. The troublesome method is to shoot 2 times: once to one of its sticker then the 2nd time to its other sticker in that position. Like LF then FL.

2. The better method is to learn some algorithms to flip edges or corners like M' U' M' U' M' U' M' U2' M' U' M' U' M' U' M' for edges or R U R' U' R U R' U' L' U R U' R' U R U' R' L for corners.

You can get good blindfold videos from Eric Limeback or bldmaster on youtube.
