[Help Thread] Multi-Blind Discussion

6/15 in 54:54.

What went wrong: EVERYTHING.

Hadn't done Multi in months. Serves me well.

 

[Riddler97]

Haven't posted in a while but had some pretty good results in the last week or so...

21/22 in 55:57 (25 secs off PB)
22/24 in 57:41

PB is 20/20 in 55:32, NR is 23 pts in 58:xx (for now)

Multi pb. 12/13 in 59:02.11, same amount of points as previous pb but I beat the time by about 36 seconds. Dnf was my 3bld cube I traced the last possible piece wrong :/ I memod and executed SB instead of SM. So 100% perfect execution and recall but the last letter was a mis-memo still happy with the overall, 17 cubes is what I will be attempting next

 

[Fábio De'Rose]

Getting back on the swing, lol. From this I'll probably jump into 15 cubes from now until I have them comfortably sub-hour.

7/10 in 47:03.49 [34.56.42]

Afterthoughts:

- I'm improving my letter pair list, and it kinda shows already. Some images are much clearer and show up easier.

- Added a new room and slightly adjusted others. Been forcing myself to spread individual cubes apart more, as well as have clearer divisions of Corners / Edges. Seems to work well.

- As a result, my memo/exec structure is much simpler, using packs of 4 cubes. Memo a pack, review. Memo another, review. Then review both and add the 9th cube on a separate room. Then I execute as 10 (3BLD), 9 and 1-8.

- My execution is all too safe and slow, but every now and then I'll pick up a good rhythm as my think-ahead is improving.

DNFs:

- Recall mistake which I thought I'd fixed like a goddamn genius but apparently was just channeling my inner scrambler instead.

- Seriously wrong comm, apparently, and forgot to flip an edge.

- Twisted a corner the wrong way around, rip.

41/50 MBLD in 1:00:09 [34:13]


I target 10 cube improvement per year, when I started MBLD in 2014 I got 10 cubes sub hour, 20 in 2015 and 30 in 2016 and 40 also in 2016 so my 2018 goal of 50 cubes is very close

10 cube improvement per year, that's just too linear to be true!

 

[abunickabhi]

Haha thank you very much I also believe that much more than 50 is surely possible given enough time, effort and dedication

A very good spirit of aiming for 50 cubes, there are so much more compressions and nuances in memorisation that can be done.
And execution is already improving due to 3bld blders sharing algs.

 

[abunickabhi]

41/48 59:04
memo 37:27 46.8s/cube
solve 21:37 27s/cube
total 1:13.8s/cube
slightly improved memo time, not happy about the accuracy though
3 cubes messed up due to random hand moves, 3memo mistakes 1 exec mistake
56 seconds left, so if I had done additional 3bld cube at the end I would have fitted 49
What do you guys think, should I go for 50? :v


I plan to go to 7 competitions in next 4 months (propably 6 of them will have mbld), and if everything goes as planned I want to make a series of serious WR attacks with 46 cubes

Go for 50 cubes in the competitions, in the next say 14 attempts in 7 competitions, do a 50 cube attempt at least 2-3 times.

Your execution is already good.
All the best for the series of WR attacks in the next 4 months!

And also do livestreaming of your home MBLD attempts, if possible.

6/6 in 23:11, cool

I should attempt 11 or 12 to prepare for comp

Yeah, just go for it!

Official 20/21 59:49

Not even nr, I was really hoping it was 21/21. I forgot a few cubes in execution and spent much time trying to recall. Still I was blown away by the time (how slow it was).

 

[TheCoolMinxer]

2/2 in 3:56 on one cube lol, it's fun

 

[T1_M0]

Fun fact: all my competition multi-blinds are over 59 minutes (not counting my 7-cube lol attempt that wasn't the best of 2)

9/11 59:47
12/19 1:00:00
14/19 1:00:00
20/21 59:05
20/21 59:49

 

[Underwatercuber]

12/13 in 50:40.28. Tied 11 points again but still a pb by time. Memo was ~31 minutes. Bummer I messed up execution on that one cube :/ lots of pauses too but whatever, the road to 20 continues

 

[Gregory Alekseev]

36/36 54:18[36:07]!!
Very happy and surprised about this attempt, PB by 6 points.

 

[Riddler97]

22/22 54:15

PB by 2 points. I was sick of my old PB (20/20 55:32) so I just went safe. I should be able to beat this soon.

 

[cubeshepherd]

This is nothing compared to almost all the other posts, but my first unofficial attempt at Multi-Blind which was two months ago was 4/6 in 48:35.? It was much better then I thought it was going to be especially since I had only been doing 3x3 blind for a little over 1 and a half months before that. Hoping you get an official 6/6 in comp before US Nationals 2018.

 

[cubeshepherd]

New MBLD PB! 5/5 in 26:53.73 Much faster then I thought is was going to be, but is could have been a couple minutes faster if I did not have as many pauses.
Next step/ goal is 7/7.

 

[CarterK]

Did a random large multiBLD for fun and got 18/25 in 1:25:07. Pretty slow, but I'm happy with the result.

 

[T1_M0]

Today's achievement xd

 

[cubeshepherd]

Yes!! 10/10 in 51:23.10 Memo was around 33.
First time attempting 10 cubes and I got a complete success. I really did not think that it was going to be 10/10 let alone sub 1 hour, but what a relief for me to have that done, and I am really happy with the result.
