I'll try it, I'm sure I can memorize the corners in 15s with this method
ಠ_ಠFU , do F E R U R' E' R U' R' F' M2
BD , do M2 D R' U R' U' M' U R U' M R D'
I would have posted that earlier but I was posting from my phone. Anyway I suggestHow would you suggest solving FU and BD?
I've been memorizing lately using single syllable letter pairs for edges (M2) and visual for corners (3OP). My problem is, memorizing visually is proving to be hard to do without disrupting my auditory loop. What's the easiest way to memorize my corners without thinking too much about it in words?
Also, I say (for that memo, literally (as well as most of my corner memo, unless it spells a word)) I say T D R J I W. Would using single syllable words allow me to memo faster? I feel that if I had words to memo that represented corners, I wouldn't feel the need to go over the memo constantly.
By the way, I think this is one of the coolest things you've brought to BLD cubing, Chris. Free memo - how sweet is that? And I agree that it works, effortlessly.As long as I say my single syllable words in under 10 seconds, my memorization is already done for me by my brain. I'm really not joking when I say that I don't try to memorize the words. The only thing I try hard to do is say all of them in under 10 seconds. If you pull it off, then you can hear the entire set of words echoing in your head just long enough to get through the execution phase.
Single syllable words memo is pretty powerful, yeah. You may want to consider it. Here is an average of 5 for 2x2x2 BLD trying to minimize memo time. My goal was to memo as quickly as possible, and I timed the full solve too.
13.28 memo (46.52 total); 8.05 memo (30.59 total); 7.64 memo (25.80 total - DNF); 8.94 memo (23.62 total); 8.77 memo (27.14 total)
Memo time included finding a good orientation for the cube to maximize already solved corners, as well as memorizing permuted but disoriented corners when I had them.
I'm not even claiming that I'm world class for corner memo. I'm sure there are others who memorize much more quickly. My point is that I can memorize corners in a manner that feels to me like trying to fall off a log. As long as I say my single syllable words in under 10 seconds, my memorization is already done for me by my brain. I'm really not joking when I say that I don't try to memorize the words. The only thing I try hard to do is say all of them in under 10 seconds. If you pull it off, then you can hear the entire set of words echoing in your head just long enough to get through the execution phase.
Taking Riffz' suggestion I use single syllable words for edges when doing 3x3x3, and although it takes more time to memorize more pieces, I can still say the entire memo in just enough time to hear the entire set of words "echoing" in my head just long enough to get through the solution phase.
My brother said he learned rules for them, like how many moves different setup moves are. I'm sure I will have more questions..
Sorry for stupid questions but I am relatively new to BLD (not have a success yet, though Ive only attempted like 3 times..) but I have some M2 questions
Could someone explain the rules of setup moves? My brother said he learned rules for them, like how many moves different setup moves are. I'm sure I will have more questions..
Alright, sometime this weekend I'll attempt a BLD solve with me just saying the letters on the fly and me trying to put on blindfold fast enough to solve. If it doesn't work Chris I'm coming for you .
I must admit that while I rely on auditory loop some, because I repeat the letters so much, it's basically memorized in a way, and that's not taking advantage of the free memo
If I don't memo all the corners in 10 seconds (say it's a hard scramble for corners) what should I do?
Ok I'll talk to you IRL. Stuff to do now:
Make/memo letter pair list
Learn M2
Learn BH..
Also..for multi, how do you memo corners? I just do the auditory loop like my brother, but you..can't really do that for multi.
How can you know if a setup move takes 4? Intuitive I assume?
