that's simply awesome, speed bld should be official wca event.
I saw that this guy using CFOP to Bindfolded lol
I guess he knows how to solve the scramble before he saw the cube.
What was the memorization time?
Oh, hmm. I don't mind someone being faster, but I *do* mind someone selecting a scramble for speed BLD just because it's easy. Otherwise, it's easy to filter out a 1-in-a-1000 scramble for yourself. I mean, a 2-move Xcross? The cross+first slot are a sigfinicant part of speed BLD, and I don't think it's fair to claim a UWR when you decide to do speed BLD *after* you start inspection for such a scramble.
Yah. Probably won't happen in the near future. I'm still sad about that. :-(that's simply awesome, speed bld should be official wca event.
Uh, no? This is speed BLD.I saw that this guy using CFOP to Bindfolded lol

well that's my opinion, and you shouldn't be so anoying
Not sure what you mean. It's also my opinion that speed BLD should be (/should have been) an official event.well that's my opinion, and you shouldn't be so anoying
While I'd love to see it as an official event too, there are some issues:
1. Time - a good solve requires a good deal of planning, tracing, memorisation of moves, finding good algs that minimize the effect on other pieces and taking time at the end to ensure the memo is solid. Thus this should take a long time, even for some experienced solvers. You'd need to find an hour slot in what could be a busy schedule, and find a judge who's willing to watch you for an hour and make sure you don't do any moves to the cube (good luck.)
2. If you were to do a 'quick' memo, with a 3BLD style execution (if you're good <20s) then it defeats the purpose of the event and you might as well just stick to 3BLD.
Not sure what you mean. It's also my opinion that speed BLD should be (/should have been) an official event.
But:
1. Multi BLD also had its time limit reduced by a lot. Speed BLD with a time limit of 20 minutes would probably be reasonable. If people actually started practicing, 10 minutes would probably be feasible.
2. Allowing quick memo makes speed BLD accessible just like multi BLD is accessible. You can take what you know, and try to improve it. I'd love to see what kind of optimizations people would make to BLD methods for this. Perhaps we'd find new tricks to port back to regular BLD.
