Multi BLD, Methods, Thoughts, stories, experiences, Records, etc.

[LarsN]

I've tried 2 cubes successfully at around 10 minutes, and tried 3 cubes that were 2/3 with one cube having 2 edges flipped.
When I memo I use pure visuel CO,CP and then I use the person/action method that I use for bigcubes for the edges. It's not directly a person/action system, but one that I came up with myself and then realised that it was somewhat similiar to PA.
One thing that I do which I never heard of anyone else doing, is that I first do the corners on all the cubes and then go back to do the edges. This is because my edge memo is a lot stronger then the visual for corners.

I did my first serious attempt today.
I don't know why but I directly went for 3 cubes.
I got all of them right in 23:44.84. But my memo times were very high because I revised through each of the cubes twice just to be sure.That means I can improve a lot!
BTW I use the PAO method to memorize.

wow VERY NICE karth. 3 on ur first try and success is GOOD man. and in 23 minutes is still okay so good job! it took me longer to do 3 my first time. u can do LOTS more too so keep that in mind, just belive in yourself also yeah i hear most people use PAO method, too but i have never tried. maybe i should experiment with it too...

I plan to break Rowe's record, but i don't have more than 16 cubes :/

In general, slow and steady works best for me. So, each week, I plan to make one attempt for Arnaud's competition, and each week I will attempt one more cube than I have ever done before. So this coming week I will be attempting 4 cubes, and I will continue doing that until I get one. Then I'll move to 5. Etc. Hopefully by the end of the year I'll be doing more than 20. (Hey, at least I can dream.)

Nice to hear about that tim! you are VERY fast in ur Multi's man and you can probably beat Rowe One day with enough practice. and hey it took him 6 hours to get 20 cubes, im sure you could get close to that many in a WAY better time

and Yeah mike in my Multi Attempts i like to go slow and steady myself, it REALLY helps me remember it more myself, and i am more calm doing that i must try to improve my speed soon lately, and someday even I would like to get more than 20 cubes myself too and dont worry your goal is NOT a dream, u CAN achieve it man so keep working on it!

Rowe spent 6 hours? Wow, he has to be very addicted . I'm sure, i can solve them in less than 1.5 hours. Maybe i'll borrow a few cubes from friends this week.

btw. i like to go fast, because i forget things very fast. I made a 16 cubes attempt a few minutes ago and i can't remember my first cube anymore.

that's the good way you don't want your cubes from one attempt messing up your memo on the next one(s)

 

[Derrick Eide17]

hehe wow really that sux lol. if i ever did a 16 cube attempt and immediately forgot the 1st i'd probably like give up on life lmao. Also good luck on your upcoming attempts man, and your going to have to pick up the pace though man, because Ryosuke Mondo is attempting huge amounts lately too, and has upcoming ones soon and he is REALLY good.
