Five 5BLD successes in a row wtf O.O
Click to expand...

I've been working very hard on my new "synergistic" pace for bigger cubes, and it is improving my accuracy a lot while still keeping my times relatively fast. I find it to be a happy medium between being reasonably certain that the solve will still be a success, and also getting a decently fast time.

...yet I still have trouble with 3BLD. Synergistic pacing just does not work on this cube for me, or it works differently enough that I haven't yet discovered the right balance for it yet. My only DNF in the BLD scrambles for this week was fittingly a 3x3x3 solve :fp

Assuming he didn't do any others in between, it's 8 in a row, including the 3 regular BLD ones. And don't forget the 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 also in there. Amazing accuracy, Chris - I'm jealous! (Particularly so since I had a kind of bad week accuracy-wise, DNFing all 3 4x4x4s.)

Thanks, Mike!

Again, I've been working very hard on improving my accuracy lately with my memo pacing, and it seems to be working! I don't notate all of my memo times (I don't often even glance at the timer to be honest), but on the few solves where I did look I noticed that the ratio for memo:solving seems to be in the range of 60:40 to 2:1.

This is my best ever performance in a weekly competition as far as I am concerned, but I still have my bad weeks as well. No worries on your 4BLD solves, just a couple weeks ago I was 1/5 in the 5x5x5 speedsolve scrambles for 5BLD. Remember - any practice is good practice.
 
Mike Hughey:

2x2x2: 6.02, 6.55, 6.76, DNF, 7.66 = 6.99
Comment: On the fourth one I misrecognized PBL and didn’t realize it in time.
3x3x3: 22.05, 22.67, 21.22, 20.47, 27.13 = 21.98
4x4x4: 1:21.08, 1:34.99 [OP], 1:34.66 [P], 1:42.52 [O], 1:44.66 [OP] = 1:37.39
5x5x5: 3:02.34, 2:51.40, 2:57.91, 2:39.84, 3:11.14 = 2:57.22
Comment: Using freeslice instead of AvG.
6x6x6: 5:40.67 [O], 5:19.43, 5:16.26, 5:16.16, 5:12.97 = 5:17.28
Comment: Using freeslice instead of AvG. Amazing times considering that, but I was amazingly lucky on parity, so it’s not really all that great, I guess.
7x7x7: 7:45.62, 8:26.49, 7:38.17, 8:46.46, 7:45.13 = 7:59.08
Comment: Using freeslice instead of AvG.
2x2x2 BLD: 33.22, 27.08, 25.68 = 25.68
Comment: Last one was 4 commutators – I was happy with how fast it went for that many algs; there were absolutely no pauses.
3x3x3 BLD: 1:44.36, DNF [2:20.20], 1:36.78 = 1:36.78
Comment: Second one had 2 edges flipped.
4x4x4 BLD: DNF [9:09.47, 4:16], DNF [7:38.84, 4:13], DNF [8:12.45, 4:03] = DNF
Comment: First one was off by 3 wings (memorized W instead of X) and 3 corners (memorized TK instead of KT). Second one was off by 3 wings (memorized G instead of H). Third one was off by 3 wings (memorized correctly, but solved KL instead of KJ). It’s so depressing to miss all 3.
5x5x5 BLD: 16:20.57 [8:19], DNF [16:57.74, 9:04], 15:27.06 [8:00] = 15:27.06
Comment: First one was very difficult; I’m happy I solved it at all. Second one was off by 6 centrals – I forgot to do one whole location. This happened because I couldn’t recall the last location of wings, and so I skipped them and went back to them. Whenever I do this, I always wind up confusing myself too much, and often make mistakes like this. I guess that’s part of why I don’t value pickup solving (that Chris swears by) – if I ever have to skip anything because I can’t recall it, it almost always causes me to mess up somewhere else anyway.
6x6x6 BLD: DNF [35:23.83, 16:06]
Comment: Off by 3 outer wings (memorized H instead of G – I confuse G and H way too often) and 4 inner wings (mismemorized badly, but solved wrong as well, so I got closer to correct than I should have).
7x7x7 BLD: DNF [53:51.82, 28:50]
Comment: Ugh. 3 inner + centers wrong – I recalled LP instead of HP. Nice reorient – a pretty easy scramble if you saw the reorient. (I think I had 34 centers solved.) I was too slow memorizing – my memory wouldn’t stick.
3x3x3 multiBLD: 10/11 = 9 points, 57:43.98 [38:06]
Comment: Third cube off by 2 flipped edges – didn’t see them while memorizing. I spent quite a few minutes solving the eighth cube because I couldn’t recall the corners, but I eventually got it.
3x3x3 OH: 44.53, 42.84, 42.15, 39.66, 51.30 = 43.17
3x3x3 WF: 1:47.27, 1:47.53, 1:55.97, 2:52.97, 1:50.68 = 1:51.39
3x3x3 Match the scramble: 1:28.10, 1:43.66, 1:47.94, 1:14.40, 1:12.90 = 1:28.72
3x3x3 Fewest Moves: 31 moves
Comment: See solution earlier in thread.
2-4 relay: 2:09.65 [P]
2-5 relay: 4:58.46 [OP]
Comment: I can’t believe I got sub-5 using freeslice on 5x5x5! 2x2x2 + 5x5x5 time was 2:53, so I really did well on 5x5x5.
Magic: 11.44, 10.91, 10.44, 13.33, 12.84 = 11.73
Comment: OHITABLD, of course. I really need to practice.
Master Magic: 3.53, 3.31, 3.94, 3.40, 4.71 = 3.62
Clock: 2:47.06 [0:28], 17.40, 17.05, 18.52, 17.53 = 17.82
MegaMinx: 47:56.48 [27:11], 3:38.78, 3:20.38, 3:50.81, 3:10.77 = 3:36.66
Comment: BLD solve was really nice – 18 minute memo at first but then I realized I was missing a corner permutation piece, and it took 10 more minutes to find the mistake (I skipped memorizing the last piece in my first cycle). If I just hadn’t made that mistake, this would have been easily sub-40, so I think I’m improving! The speedsolves are slow because my MF8 is still not anywhere near as good as my old Chinaminx; I think I need to sand down the pieces some more (I already did it a little, but it doesn’t appear to have been enough) – it’s terrible at cutting corners.
Pyraminx: DNF [58.30], 13.90, 17.08, 15.09, 17.22 = 16.46
Comment: BLD solve was off by 3 edges – I messed up the algorithm.
Square-1: 9:49.27 [5:58], 45.27, 35.05, 28.84, 48.41 = 42.91
Comment: BLD solve was rough because I had trouble remembering both the matrix memorization for the case and the algorithms for solving. Case IA.
Skewb: 4:28.96 [1:22], 22.68, 30.08, 22.13, 22.81 = 25.19

Rebecca Hughey:

3x3x3 BLD: DNF [9:xx], DNF [6:04.12], DNF [6:54.56] = DNF
Comment: She had to reuse the stopwatch on the first one for a test they were taking, so we don’t know the exact time. The third one was the only one that was close at all – there were 5 corners and 2 edges wrong.

FMC: 35 HTM
Spend way too much time on a 1x2x3 + 1x1x3 block combo...
Just coulnd't fit things together properly, got to start studying Roux.
Finally gave in and went for regular blockbuilding to get to 5 corners left after 19 moves. But no time left for insertions...

D' B' L F L D makes 2x2x2 6
B F R F' R2 makes pseudo 2x2x3 11
U B' U2 B2 U' R makes F2L minus slot + EO 17
R' B2 R B' cancels two mves and leaves 5 corners 19
L U L' D L U' L' D' leaves 3 corners 27
B L B' R2 B L' B' R2 solved 35

Edit: Congratulations Mike and Chris!
When using NISS I also first "translate" my solution at the x corners left stage and only then apply the stickers for insertions.

Mike, reading through this it reminds me of the continual trouble I had with my R face letters I,J,K,L. Are G and H on certain parts of the cube where a relettering would be appropriate? Now that I have adjusted to my new R face lettering, I very rarely confuse them during memo (which I used to do frequently before).

Also, your 6BLD memo time is nice! The 7x7BLD memo time is O_O

Hey Mike, yes I know what you mean about sometimes confusing yourself when going back to stuff you skipped. I agree that pickup cycling can sometimes be dangerous. It's kind of a gamble, but when the gamble works you get a solve time that is not very much slower than if there was no recall delay.

I guess I could consider relettering G and H. They are UBr and UFr for me, respectively. And I guess I do also have trouble sometimes with W and X (note that happened on the first 4x4x4 BLD this week!), which are DBr and DFr respectively. I letter the pieces clockwise around the top and bottom faces. If I switched to doing front first, then back, it would still be a sensible lettering scheme and just fix those four pieces. I have to think about this for a while - I have to admit the idea really scares me, but it kind of makes sense.

Wow... This is freaky.

My old scheme:
I = UFr
J = UBr
K = DFr
L = DBr

My new scheme:
I = UBr
J = UFr
K = DBr
L = DFr

Those are the exact same wings I was having problems with as well o_O Like you, I was using a positional scheme per face. Mine was left to right, top to bottom. However, the different directions for L and R threw me off terribly.

Mike, you may want to consider switching. I switched in mid-October of last year, so I've been using my new R face lettering (inner and outer layers got relettered) for 5 months now. It took me a solid 2 months before I was getting to be comfortable with the new lettering and not having to count letter by letter any time I cycled to that face. Even now, after only 5 months, the thought of my old lettering scheme just feels "wrong" in every way.

Again, I know it's a big change to make. I didn't enjoy the process of relearning the new scheme. However, I am much better off now having done it. If I could go back and do it again, I definitely would - it was certainly worth it.

Just food for thought. You freaked me out there when you listed the same pieces that I was also having trouble with. *twilight zone theme plays quietly*
 
Okay, I agree - that's freaky. That fact convinced me. I guess I'll give it a try. If all I do is swap those two pairs, it really shouldn't take a bunch of time to switch. I can really just go for it. So I guess I will this week. Scary.

One thing I guess I can do to prepare is to do time attacks on those sets of wings - every wing case involving those four pieces. It wouldn't take that long to go through those a few times, and it should help me get used to the new scheme. It might also help me see how much I'm going to be bothered by it.

Memorized the first cube wrong, had to restart after 3 min. Then for the next 2 I memorized ‘s’ instead of ‘t’ 3 times... took a min to figure that out, since I never have ‘s’ in 3x3 bld. Set-up move wrong made the fist cube off by 8 pieces.

I just made my first attempt with the new lettering. No preparation - I just went over the new positions of the letters a couple of times and then went for it. Eight minute success for next week's competition. It was amazing how easy it seemed; I really thought it was going to be hard, but it seemed rather natural. Based on that first attempt, I suspect this really will be better.

Easy solve, like Mike I managed to orient to 34 centers solved.
Memo was very fast (for me) and the end result not too bad, 2 x-centers, 2 +-centers and 5 edges off. Fastest attempt ever.
Multi: 6/8 = 4 in 44:19 (32:20)
Not good. One cube I executed EL instead of LE and one had a 3-cycle corners off.
Easy scrambles.

@Chris: nice solves, astounding accuracy, I wish I could do that.

INSS:
on inverse scramble:
2x2x3: D R F L2 B2 U2 D2 F D'
switch to regular scramble with premoves [D F' D2 U2 B2 L2 F' R' D']
pseudo F2L: L2 U L F2 D F' D2 L D L' U F' U' (13+9)
LL: F' L' F' U' F U L2 F D F' D' (24+9)
pre-move correction: D F' D2 U2 B2 L2 F' R' D' (30)
