Got lazy at the end, didn't feel like doing scrambles 18 and 20 because I quickly found cycles breaks :P
43.57 is PB

MultiBLD
10/13 in 37:40.79
Always mess up edges for reasons I don't know :/

Comment: I can't believe how bad I've gotten by spending all my time the last couple of months on 3x3x3 speedsolve and gigaminx BLD. And yet, the format here has strange consequences - my result here is not that much worse than typical. I think that's because the main thing that has gotten worse for me is the hard solves; the easy solves are still easy, but the hard solves have gotten harder. Accuracy was absolutely terrible, and I think I got what must be my worst single BLD solve in years.

* generic key for mistakes - C: corners, E: edges or central edges, W: wings, X: X centers, +: + centers, i: inner, m: middle, o: outer, O: obliques
 
3x3BLD = 1:11.26 Wow, PB for this contest. (15/20)
Three "almost" sub-1 solves, very good for me.

4x4BLD = 7:09.07 (2/8)
dnf, dnf, dnf, dnf, dnf, dnf, 8:11.97, 6:06.16
After six straight DNF:s I had to go safe on the two last scrambles.
The last was the absolutely best safe I have ever done :).

5x5BLD = 19:19.48 (1/4)
dnf, dnf, dnf, 19:19
Same here, had to go safe on the last. I just could not reorient, spent three minutes
on that (but for a few seconds). During solving the +-centers I had an uncommon commutator
which I did wrong twice and had to correct. So it was good that I got it however slow it was.

multi-BLD: 6/8 in 38:50.35
cubes off by 2 flipped edges and the other by 2 twisted corners. I have no idea why this happened.
but nice you can already see an improvement of time because of my practice with small attemps :)
