Is it possible for me to solve blindfolded...without algorithms?

J-PERM IS FOR WIMPS WHO ARE TOO SCARED TO DO REAL MEN SETUPS.

not gonna lie - i lol'd a bit

Woo! I guess that's 2 for Dene tonight.

Btw I use J perms for UF and UB edges

just for those?
how do you do the swaps to:
BD RD FD LD
(assuming using old pochman with buffer at UR, so U sticker would swap with B sticker; R and D stickers swap, etc)

 

[Dene]

I just do set ups. They aren't very nice, but then again I suck at bld.

For any of those 4 I would perform the popular Y perm with the F and F's taken off the beginning and end. I find it really fast. Just use D moves to set up the piece to RDF.

Please explain more detailed how you setup FD into RDF!

Oh wow... :fp I thought we were talking about corners because I use J perms for Old Pochmann corners. I wasn't thinking about Old Pochmann edges.

(Corners can be denoted by just 2 stickers if you assume they are in a consistent direction)

Thank you, so I did the first one without conjugating; though, I did flip it-the whole cube- forward and F became D to make a more familiar situation. I did the second one but in this one I did conjugate and I even had to put my fingers on the sides at the beginning so that I don't get confused. I am better with corners but I've been trying to become better with edges these couple of days by solving all the corners then using commutators for the edges.

To answer your question from this thread, yes you are pretty much ready to solve blindfolded using commutators then. The only thing is to know how you will solve parity. Do you know how you would solve this without algorithms? You can, of course, just use an alg like T perm or Y perm or something, but it has already been mentioned in this thread how to handle parity by simply using the concept of what parity is (i.e. not using any "algs").

Once you can solve parity, you will be ready to solve blindfolded without any pre-memorized algs.

If you don't like to memorize anything, you better not practice BLD. You have to memorize whole cube before start solving, so try another kind of speedcubing.

EDIT: Sorry, but what is the meaning of "Wimps"?

It probably means people that acts as if they were experts, but haven't read more than one post in a thread.

Yes, I do know how to solve a parity. Thank you

I certainly read all the topic...

Is there any cube that is better for BLD? I didn't heard any comments about this.

PS: If you like algoritms, there is a method that have more than 500, just search in Google and take a look. It's used by the owner of WR BLD.

XYX'Y' is still an algorithm.

Just do speedbld8355.

Rowe Hessler said he's been using an Alpha V instead of an F-II because it's less prone to popping.

too bad it doesn't mean that...
your thinking of troll or possibly noob
