Im quitting BLD forever.

A sub-20 OH solve has got to be worth at least a sub-1:30 BLD, the way people are now improving at BLD. I suspect by the end of the year it might take a sub-2 BLD just to be in the top 100 in the world. (Which is why I'm afraid I might not make it.) Right now sub-2 is top 30. See if it isn't 40 or more after this weekend. :)

I guess I need to eat my words. Nobody new went sub-2 this whole weekend. I'm totally shocked by that.
 
Yeah im not sure if anyone here actually even really know THAT much who i am or if they even care but i have decided to quit BLD Forever. i dont know if anyone even cares if am but if anyone does then if you wanna say something, then sure thanks. Something just happened recently and i just dont really wanna talk about it but i realized a lot of things now and i just know there is no point in even doing BLD anymore, so im Done.

Thanks for reading this nonsense.

Thanks for letting us know. This information will have great impact on the cubing community. It is with a sadden heart that I read that the greatest pirate hunter in the world is retiring from cubing.

well since it was tyson who revived it I think I am going to go ahead and say something in case you ever try to do something like this again:

Derrick, quitting is not your style. If you are not satisfied with your BLD times, the I would expect you to do 2000 BLD solves in a week until you got better.

My turning speed is not outstanding, and I don't expect to ever be a sub-13 3x3 solver. However, I still practice practice practice to be the best that I can possibly be.

Anytime you start to doubt yourself just say "I'm Derrick Eide, I Love cubing" over and over until you remember why you are cubing in the first place.

that is the weirdest post i have ever read in my life xD
ur scaring me :p

thanks? :p
 
Derrick, did you even end up quitting forever, or are we discussing something that was made irrelevant 7 months ago?
 
Are we really going to discuss this again?
Tyson: I don't know why you brought this thread up, did you have any new insights in the matter of this thread? :) It seems like you don't actually.
Derrick: it's still a lousy claim which says nothing, and knowing you better than most cubers here, I dare to say that you'll never do things like this anyway.

I'm quite sure that nothing new is posted here, besides asking Derrick if he really quited or not which he didn't (he's actually doing quite good in BLD I have to say)
Case closed or...?
