I finally got revenge for all the 4BLD PB mean fails!
2:09.81 mean
1. 1:58.96
2. 2:27.79
3. 2:02.67

The first solve had a huge pause (5 to 10 secs) before I recalled wing memo, so that's quite the PB fail, but I'll take every sub-2 I can get ig

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

My success rate on 4BLD has really skyrocketed. In 11 consecutive solves, I only got 1 DNF, and it was a DNF by only 3 wings! I realized the mistake whilst stopping the timer but it was too late already lol.

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

1:49 4BLD DNF by 2 centers out of a sub 2 mean, ouch.
BTW I also got a 1:46 DNF by 2 centers.

I'll not do 4BLD for a few days now because I don't have time anymore.

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

Failed a 4BLD mean in weekly comp because of 1 comm. The third solve was garbage anyway so idrc but it's still a bit sad.

dude my dream is to be able to do 4bld
you are a big inspiration for me!

My next comp will be on April 22nd. The events will be 2x2-5x5 and square-1. For square-1, it will be guaranteed PR because my current PR single is a meme, and I don't have an average yet. I've never competed in 5x5, so that will also be guaranteed PR. For 3x3 and 4x4, my goal is to get straight PRs. I won't have the goal to get a sub 9 average, because having that goal seems to get me horrible averages. For 2x2, I want to podium. This will be a challenge, as there will be 3 people that have a sub 2 average. I want to learn this before the competition:
- Relearn EG-1
- EG-2
- LEG-1
- TCLL+/-
If necessary, I will skip LEG-1.

I won't be starting until maybe the beginning of april though, because I am very busy with school right now.

Just started this by relearning the EG-1 cases that I had forgotten. Up next: EG-2
(I still suck at AUF prediction on EG-1 cases, and even some CLL cases, so I'll fix that after learning EG-2)

 

[Deleted member 36445]

niceeee
when I started learning cll I was learning all the aufs too but I got tired and I'll leave that for later lol

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

Finished EG-2, I'll revise them in a few hours.

hmm
that was fast

I'm gonna learn some cll : D

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

speedrunning algs do be nice though
(2x2 algs are just easy I can't help it)

GL with CLL!

5BLD in weekly comp was a bit sad. The first solve had parity, but I was stupid enough to not do UF-UR swap during wing tracing, resulting in a DNF by 4 wings. The other 2 solves were successes but they were really slow. Still mad I ruined such an oppurtunity to get a mean just because of a brainfart.
Hoping to finally get some good bigBLD results next week.

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

5BLD 5:04.93 DNF by 3 wings. I did HQ DN instead of DN HQ. I should start doing more than 5 solves per week so I'll get a sub 5 finally.

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

I might try 7BLD in weekly comp today or later this week. I have no idea how fast it will be, but I think I would be satisfied with sub 40. (I think I would be satisfied with any success but oh well)

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

I just finished learning AUF-prediction for all EG algs. I guess i know full EG now
Probably won't do 2x2 anymore today unless I feel very motivated because I'm kinda sick of all the algs now. I will do maybe half an hour of drilling AUF prediction tomorrow and after that will be LEG-1

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

I started learning SQ1 cubeshape, I know all cases that take 4 slices or fewer, and a few others. Few reasons why I'm doing this: it's nice to iterate (is that the right word?) between 2x2 algs and CS algs every now and then, it is very important for SQ1 BLD to be able to 1-look the cubeshape (because yes, you need to trace through cubeshape on every SQ1 BLD solve, it's gonna be pain), and lastly, I have SQ1 in my next comp.

Also I'm afraid I forgot a lot of my floating algs for 3BLD. I think I want to do too many things at the same time lol

What does a parantheses around a time mean

do you mean like in the title of my 7BLD video?:

7BLD Success in 44:08.04 [26:36.74]​

There the time 26:36.74 is the time I took to memorize the puzzle, and the 44:08.04 is the total time of memorization + execution.

 

[THE_V01DL0RD]

No, I mean in competition.
Also, whats the biggest puzzle you saw someone do blindfolded.
I heard someone did 8x8 blind

Oh well in an average of 5 the worst and best time don't count, so they are written in parentheses.
Enoch Gray has done 11BLD.
I've tried 9BLD but failed. I'll probably try again this year. First is 2-7 BLD relay though.

 

[THE_V01DL0RD]

So if I got the following times
1.11
1.11
1.12
1.11
1.03
my average would be 1.11?
