(these are all approximations)
Total: 452 targets, or about a 22.5 cube mbld.
Wait I've done 24 cube attempts before so this sounds a little less impossible but still really difficult

Must've missed a pretty good scramble for 3BLD, as Olivier got a 17.78 NR. Still beatable, but I'll need some luck. I really need some good 3BLD results soon lol
Edit: for what it's worth, probably PB mo2 lol: 18.30 and 17.96, so 18.13 mo2. Both attempts before and after these two were DNFs sadly. Only needed 20.65 on either of them to get PB mo3.

So apparently my phone has this issue where it doesn't recognize the correct password anymore (instead of me having forgot it), so I'll do the 2-7 BLD relay today, filming with a different camera.
Prediction:
Total time: 2 hours and 11 minutes
Memo time: 1 hour and 31 minutes
Solved: 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 7x7
DNF: 5x5 (due to wings) and 6x6 (due to obliques)
The result of my 2-7 BLD relay attempt:
In terms of time, I think my estimate was quite good. I got sub 2 hours, with a time of 1:58:43.49. The memo took 1:21:57.98, but I got really distracted a couple of times during memo (during exec only once).
The 2x2, 3x3 and 5x5 were solved.
The 4x4 was almost solved, there are just 2 wings in the wrong spots, namely the UFr and URb. I don't know how this happened, but if I have to guess I must have thought there was parity at some point during tracing.
The 6x6 has quite a few pieces unsolved, I'm too lazy to count lol. Immediately after the very first alg I did on 6x6, I thought I might have accidentally done U instead of U2 at some point during that alg. I decided not to correct the mistake, considering I wasn't sure if I actually did that. Since there are 4 corners unsolved, and those are precisely the corners that were in the top layer at the start of that scramble (and when I had to do that U2 during that alg), I'm quite sure I indeed made that mistake. Maybe that was the only mistake during 6x6, maybe not. I'll never know, because I didn't film (the camera I wanted to use only had like 100 MB left)
7x7: Almost solved! If I do a U' now, there are 6 unsolved corners, that's all. I know what the mistake was as well: the first alg of corners was WN, which I didn't do the way I do it in 3BLD because I thought that was too risky. I did U R y R' D R U2 R' D' R U2 y' R' U'. Thing is, I forgot the last U'. I know that because the corner memo was WN SG DP EI, and when I do the inverse of that to a solved 3x3, and then do WN SG DP EI normally except for that last U' during WN, that 3x3 is scrambled precisely like my 7x7 right now.
In short:
4x4 DNF by 2 pieces
7x7 DNF by 1 move
6x6 DNF by 1 move maybe?
I'm kinda frustrated with the 7x7 being a DNF by one move, but overall quite happy with how the attempt went! Especially considering the distractions lol.

Mad props to you on the 2-7 BLD attempt. I can't even do three 5BLD attempts in a row without losing focus. Tracing the centers just gets to be way too much of a chore.

I haven't been learning any ZBLLs lately, and probably won't be for the next few weeks. I simply find 3BLD more important right now, considering I want to win 3BLD in nats in november and I'm definitely still worse than Olivier. Here are the things I want to work on, in order of importance:
Flips and twists, because I suck at those.
Floating: I stopped using floating in my solves for some reason. I want to relearn all corner floating and learn all edge floating.
LTCT: I want to know at least all LTCT cases that are a ZBLL, and maybe some more.
Better cube?: my current 3BLD cube is the gan 356 XS, and I don't really like it for BLD anymore. I have to limit my turning speed, especially during edges, in order to avoid pops. I feel like a good cube could make me sub 20 at this point. I don't know what I should use though, and don't want to spend a lot of money, so maybe I'll just stick to this.
Obviously, I don't want to forget the 200 ZBLLs I learnt, so I'll try to review them as often as possible, and maybe even learn AUF prediction for them if I find motivation.
As for bigBLD and MBLD, I haven't really done either in a while, and depending on what will be held at nats, I might postpone doing these again to after nats. Especially MBLD really needs a derust though, as I've only done 4 (!) sort of big attempts this year, 1 of which being 20 cubes so not even really big.

This post will serve as my database for flips and twists for 3BLD. I just (finally) made a list of algs for all 2-flips on edges, as I usually just did those intuitively with rotations and everything.

I will edit this whenever I have something to add regarding flips or twists.
Registered for two competitions today, one in Belgium (Belgian Nats) and one in Germany. Both comps have clock, so I finally actually ordered a clock (qiyi of course). It'll arrive tomorrow. I have no idea about how clock works or what the difficutly of advanced methods is, but the plan is to 1. Find out how a clock actually turns and make a method myself 2. Make a clock BLD method 3. Learn a couple good methods 4. Get fast enough to my liking. (Assuming I'll enjoy clock, which I think I will).
Also, Belgian Nats has a round of BLD, so that has priority ofc.
First timed clock solve (second solve overall) was 1:37.79 lol (edit: second timed solve was 1:01.90)
My 'method' is probably super inefficient though so I'm gonna watch J perms tutorial.

Clock is very easy to improve on. I averaged 30 seconds after the jperm tutorial (flip method) and I still use it and i am sub 12.
If you practice very much, you can get sub 20 easily.
Clock update:
I average like 17 now (it was indeed easy to improve) and I tried a few solves with 7simul but each time the same two clocks at the back are unsolved (although relatively solved). Gonna check what I've been doing wrong when I get back home.

I figured out what I did wrong: I calculated the 4th number in the wrong direction. I can now do 7simul solves, but I am still far from being able to do simultaneous turns and everything (+ I still use a cheat sheet for how memo works lol). I like the idea of the method though, so I guess I kinda like clock now?
