multi blind question

[F.P.]

Actually, I think I remember that Rowe didn't bother with routes. And he had some pretty good results. But most everyone else uses routes of some sort; they help make the images or stories stick in your memory.

They way I do it, it's almost impossible to confuse anything...if I solve n cubes I also use n routes; one route for every cube and I'm used to all the routes I use.
I even always use the routes in the same order...no matter wether I solve 3 cubes or 30.

A fixed set of images, a fixed set of routes...the only way to have a DNF is to do setup/moves/algorithms wrong.

Can't really talk about the additional stress-factor during a competition...I guess I would also have memo-mistakes there (just like I did with my Pi-record :rolleyes: ).

I use visual for corners.

I use visual for corners too. But isn't that difficult for multi? I can't memorize more than two sets of corners with visual.

I think I remember Rafal saying he used visual for corners for quite a while, and he was able to do quite many cubes. But I don't think I could manage that very well.

Its tough but changing to another system just for multi isn't something I'm going to do for now since I'm not focusing on multi.

For two cubes, I do visual corners, for some of the three cubes attempts I have made, some were visual and the remaining were using images/routes. I have got a 3/3 using visual in 20:xx.

By the way...if some of you would just practice instead of spending time on this forum, asking questions and wondering about who uses what method and which method seems to be the best to others etc., you would solve 50/50 easily.

So true!

Well, this was my first thread awhile ago, I got help in i think the 2nd post and I've been practicing. I havnt done 2 blindsolves in the last month though

I know the solution for multi-blind

It's a variation of the journey method. LORD OF THE RINGS (CUBES)

CUBE 1. The Shire
"what are you doing here"
"I'm looking for the clockwise corner cycle on the R layer of your cube")

CUBE 2. Aragorn
"What are those things?"
"They are G Perms from the D layer of the cube "
"they seek the U perm on the bottom of your rubik's cube. "

Cube 482.
"FRODO, DROP THE FRIGGIN U PERM INTO THE RED FACE OF YOU CUBE!"
"NO!"
"Don't make me call mrs. E perm"
"Fine....Dang...."

ETC. ETC.

You just have to memorize the movie.
