Are you still using M2/OP?

Yes (Very Surprisingly)

 

[tseitsei]

still 3 dnf's with super safety, still my best attempt with 12 cubes

9/12 in 41:59 [33]

2x 2 flipped edges
1x forgot to execute my last corner target fml

I think I will go for 12 cubes at Nats

No offense or anything but I have to ask you why you would only do 12 cubes?

I mean you said that was a super safety solve and you still have 18mins left.
You used 3.5mins per cube in that attempt so that means you could still add 5 more cubes to and be sub hour with that same pace.

But you could of course play it safe and only add 3 cubes so you would still have little over 7minutes of safety margin left.

But if that really already was a safety solve for you you should (IMO) do at least 15 cubes.

But that's just me. Feel free to do whatever amount you want

Yes (Very Surprisingly)

Haha, that's actually really cool. I've been thinking, MBLD is probably the only event where you could conceivably, non-luckily, get top-25 in world with what is essentially a begginer method.

Redux is a beginner method isn't it? All the big cube WRs are held with redux.

4bld and 5bld can also be done with beginner (something like u2/r2/op).

And as mentioned above big cubes should be possible too with redux+lbl.

But yeah it's easier in bld events since your solving method is really just half of your whole method. The other half is your memorization method.
And same in big cubes. (Almost) everyone uses redux from beginner to world class and the 3x3 stage has little enough effect to the total solve time so you can solve it with lbl...

Oh, interesting. I don't do 4x4+ (yet) so I always assumed that the world class big cubers used more advanced variations of redux/yau.
I guess 4bld and 5bld could also conceivably be done; I just forgot about those ones.

7/10 in 9:54 [4:39]

memo was slower than exec by 36 sec awesome time! 59.40 per cube, 27.9 memo per cube and 31 exec.

last attempt at 10 cubes was 8/10 in 13:29 a few months ago so happy with progress, can do 60+ in an hour at this rate

 

[oneshot]

First mbld success! 2/2 in about forever minutes...

 

[kamilprzyb]

Next goal: >20 points

Done

Yay I've beaten my PB!
Now it's 29/32 58:31 with 38:40 memo and 19:51 solve
My concentration worked well, I went slowly with memo to make sure it'll be perfect, and I think it was, it looks like DNFs were caused by solving mistakes
2 cubes look like I did 3cycle wrong way, one is messed up propably by a M move in the middle

Spoiler: Memo and solve analysis

Memo:
1-8 10:04 75,5 s/cube
9-16 9:59 74,8 s/cube
17-24 10:05 75,6 s/cube
25-32 8:31 63 s/cube
Memo:38:40 72,5 s/cube
Solve: 19:51 37,2 s/cube
Total: 58:31 1:49,7 /cube

It took me almost forever, previous PB was set in December 2015 (24/24 58:13)
Execution needs to be improved, now it's smooth but slow
Next goal: >30 points I guess?

Great Job!

 

[kake123]

9/9 MBLD in 22min 29.16s, prevoius best time was 26min 29.68s (so a huge improvement )

Decided to do smaller attempts because of temporary mistakes made during my 20 cube attempts (the fastest was 16/20 in 1hr 54.20s on Monday)

 

[Elo13]

First MBLD success!! 2/2 in about 15 minutes
It was my second attempt ever.

 

[kake123]

19/20 MBLD in 1hr 2min 34.86s (messed up memo for 1 cube)

Otherwise a good attempt as I went for a slower execution (started a 42-43min mark)

 

[the super cuber]

36/42 in 1:00:00 [34:08]

cool attempt, 30 points. Exec was finished in time but was trying to remember a cube I forgot. Safe memo

 

[kake123]

17/20 MBLD in 1hr 17.93s, good speed

 

[the super cuber]

38/42 in 59:44 [34:35]

good attempt, makes 33.33 points mo3 of last 3 attempts! safe memo

 

[kake123]

FINALLY

20/20 MBLD in 59min 23.86s

[YouCubing]

1/2 6:19.20, first cube was off by 2 flipped edges. this would've been PB by almost 2 minutes

 

[GenTheSnail]

Of the five 4-cube multi attempts I've done today, this was by far the best.

2/4 39:01.59
One cube was off by an M2 , and the normal BLD solve was off by a flipped edge in DB.

The other results were 2/4[~42m], 2/4[45:15], 1/4[1:04:05], 0/4[47:39]

MBLD is so fun

 

[GenTheSnail]

5/5 45:02.27[35:29.82]
WHAT. THIS WAS MY FIRST ATTEMPT
I JUST SKIPPED FROM 3 CUBES TO 5 CUBES.

Double post
Ima do 4 cubes tomorrow just to have a result.

EDIT: 4/4 in like ~51m lol. So I guess felix-mbld is closer than I thought.
