4x4x4BLD: 6:08.23 7:20.20 6:38.33
5x5x5BLD: DNF 20:22.08 DNF
comment: Both DNFs were memory encoding errors. For the first solve I shot to O twice, and did not realize it until I looked at my [X] that I actually executed. On the second solve I did not memorize one of the words for my centrals memo (done by single syllable sounds) well enough to stick. I remembered everything thing else but that one word. I guess that means I was going too quickly through centrals. I seem to have eliminated a lot of my execution mistakes, or at least I catch more of them than I used to while still mid-solve and can correct. Now my DNFs seem to be caused by memorization encoding. I need to now start focusing on this aspect of my memo to improve my accuracy rate. DNF post mortems ftw ;)

done BLD

3x3x3: DNF DNF 1:37.25 DNF 1:41.98 = DNF
4x4x4: DNF 6:54.75 DNF 6:01.53 7:40.68 = DNF
comment: Done almost real man style (as Mike puts it) for all 5 solves. I delayed at most 2-3 minutes between solves before scrambling for the next one. The 7:40.68 had a wing pop that took me approximately 1 minute to 1:30 to fix. I had to crawl around on the floor to find the piece, and when I finally found it it took me a good 10 seconds or so to replace it correctly because my hands were shaking so much. I'm surprised I actually got the solve correctly. Both of the DNFs were execution errors were I replaced a slow cycle with a nearby faster one.
5x5x5: 13:28.91 DNF DNF DNF 12:47.91 = DNF
comment: Done almost real man style. I paused 2-3 minutes between solves for a break, in addition to conducting post mortems for a couple minutes on each of the DNFs.
