Race to 4x4 BLD

I am in.

progress: can do edge (r2) and corner (obviously). Already have a well known and safe memory system (image-action + room) for 3x3 and multiple bld. Never try a full attempt yet.

The 4x4 BLD is really my next goal in BLD.

Add my name, but I don't expect to get anywhere too soon. I've been using 3OP on 3x3 (several hundred solves), so M2 on 3x3 and r2 edges on 4x4 would require I enhance my memo methods. I haven't done a successful M2 solve yet (with parity and stuff).
 
It's not that much harder. You just change the buffer to DF instead of whatever you're using (UF?)

My 3OP begins with buffer at UB (and changes for new cycles), but that's not much of my problem. My current memo uses names for positions (like 8=stop sign, 11=chopsticks) to help me with a story, plus some visual. Now I will need to memo stickers and memo pairs like object-action. I am not used to that yet.
 
i know how to do 4x4x4 BLD solves, but i've only tried individual steps [with limited success]

i want to be in on this :)

[off to try a full solve]

it's also worth noting that I dont think i've ever had a full centers success. hahah
 
17:45 DNF

off by: 15 edges 6 corners and 6 centers

[16:07] <micro501> 4x4 Scramble #3630: u' F u D R r2 f L2 b' u2 D2 f2 F d' l' D R' U R2 F' r B u2 R u U F' l2 R' U' r2 B u r R' D b' B2 l' u2
