Back to MBLD! PB!
18/20 57:55[39:40]
NR here is 17... so I'm going for 19/20.

I spent like 5 mins or more trying to recall 2 cubes that I ended up getting right. Execution should have been much faster.

Not sure what happened in that corner 3-cycle mistake.
The other cube I messed up when I had to undo a few comms... I did some U moves somewhere instead of D moves when I was undoing my parity alg: D' L2 D M2 D' L2 D... And when I realized I had done that, there was no way I could know how to fix it.
 
Is there anyone with a home PB better than WR yet, other than Maskow?
I could have sworn I have seen this answered before but I can't remember. It's crazy how good Marcin is that his wr is unobtainable my so many at home. For 3x3 people get get 3s and 4s and bld people can get 16s but only a few would be able to break his record at home XD

PB again, by 5 seconds. Ultra safe 13/13 in 57:55 for weekly comp, tons of reviewing.

And I have a question about the reviewing techniques. So, I've kinda always been memoing the cubes in two packs + 3BLD cube. I've been adding the cubes so that I've gone through 9, 11, 13 and 15 cubes. So currently at 15, I memo first 7 and review them, then another 7 and review them. Then I review all 14 and start doing the 3bld cube. I don't do any reviewing in shorter splits. I'm gonna try dividing the cubes in three next (i.e. 5+5+5+1). Then I was talking with another multi-blinder who said he does way more reviewing. He memoes and reviews 2 at a time and after 8 he reviews them all again (and said many people do so). So, I'm asking for others' experiences. Do you think it is more beneficial to review very often (2-packs)? I should probably try different techniques, but this left me thinking.
 
Getting used to new cubes and also getting back to Multi as I prep for the upcoming comps:

DNF (1/4) in 20:46.42 [15.36.98] (Too many dumb execution mistakes)

3/4 in 18:54.67 [13:16.09] (DNF was due to memorizing and executing in the wrong order, lol.

Had not practiced Multi at all for a long time, so I'm both happy and surprised with how it turned out. I believe that I can stretch it up to 10 points in <60min now, just need to practice more regularly.

For reference, my PB is 5/5 in 30:27.34 [22:53.48] if you don't consider my 6/7 in 52:59.16 [49:05.19].
 
8/9 MBLD in 1:02:12.77 [48.26.86]

First shot at 9 cubes. Pretty happy, and at the same time bummed about dumb execution mistakes and even dumber SS cubes which definitely cost me the overtime.

On a related note,

Now that I'm getting into bigger attempts, I'm having constant issues with organizing the cubes during the solve.

What strategy do you suggest, both for pickup and also during execution so I don't mess them up? Use a bigger table? Put them down far from me?
