What have YOU done Blindfolded?

the other day I memorized a pack of cards in order and attempted to play a game of solitaire, carefully setting it up [blindfolded] and played through the whole thing, i finished the game, but when i reviewed the piles they were off by like 4 cards in each, and one pile had about 6 cards less than it should have, hah. the worst part of this rediculous thing, was that i knew what was in the piles during the game, so it was kinda boring, but having to constantly recall them was very difficult after a while, expecially considering how i memorized, i didn't use a method, just memorized order [maybe 30 minutes to meorize, give or take 10 minutes.

all in all.. horrible failure. :]

grr... too many commas. This is a bad habit. :/
Just, like, replying, to, yourself, is, a, bad, habit. Use, the, edit, button.

haha, sorry, i didn't realize there WAS an edit button.. i'm a junior member, cut me a break! :P

EDIT... I was yesterday at least.

How is it that I missed this thread the first time around? At the time I hadn't done that much, but at least I could have mentioned the 4x4x4 and 5x5x5.

Here's what I've done so far:
2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4, 5x5x5, 6x6x6, 7x7x7
2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4, 5x5x5 relay
2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4 relay
2 5x5x5's multi
15 3x3x3's multi
Megaminx
Pyraminx
computer 3x3x3
Magic and Master Magic (I even did a relay, chevyLi-style :)) (I love a chance to link to that video again - one of my all-time favorites)
UFO

Some things I've tried but failed:
2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4, 5x5x5, 6x6x6 relay - I think I missed the 2x2x2, 5x5x5, and 6x6x6, but they were all kind of close
2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4, 5x5x5, 6x6x6, 7x7x7 relay - video is on YouTube; got everything right except the 6x6x6, which was off by just 3 wings
2 7x7x7's multi - I've tried 4 times but missed both cubes each time. Most of them were close.
4 5x5x5's multi - I got 3 of 4 - probably the toughest thing I've ever done. The fourth one was just 2 centrals flipped, if I remember correctly.

Ha, Mike, I've done something you haven't. VICTORY!!!!!!

Pyraminx :D

Yep, you've got me there. As I was posting, I was thinking, "wow - at least I should go do Pyraminx and Clock. It's ridiculous to have not done either of them!"

But I want to figure out Clock on my own, and I haven't had time to do that. It would be easy to go read Stefan's description, but I think it would be a good puzzle to figure out how on my own.

Mike, I think your OH+Juggling counts.

I actually forgot about that one. And Stefan, I'd like to see your list - might you be able to compete with István for the most different puzzles? I'm guessing you've done a bunch of obscure ones that you haven't told us about.
 
Nah, István certainly has a much more impressive list. I actually haven't done much, especially not lately. Mine (in chronological order):
2x2, Skewb, Pyraminx, Clock, 3x3, Megaminx, 5x5, Super 5x5, Square-1, 4x4
 
I was on a plane on my way to germany last weekend... I had a blindfold on and fell asleep. In my dream I solved a 2x2, 3x3, and a 7x7. Technically, does that count?

Pyraminx :D

I figured out Pyraminx on my own too. Once I get a clock, my first solve will be BLD, just like you with your 7x7 ;)

What I did for Pyraminx was Memo centers with 0, 1 or 2, then tips in the same way, and a BH-like approach for edges. Only 80 cases is pretty easy to figure out. Centers were just Sune + AUF.
