For piece by piece I used to 'label' the corners 1 - 8 starting from UFR and ending with DBL. Then I would memorize the whole cube. To solve I would first...
Hi Rob, thanks for the explanation, that's something I've been wondering about for quite some time. My conclusion is that the name "piece by piece" for that...
I've just written a new and extensive description of how I solve the 3x3 blindfolded. Most of it also applies to how I solved the 5x5 and Megaminx blindfolded,...
I just managed to solve two 3x3x3 at the same time. So my new goal now is to do the 4x4x4. I have read dr Carr's method for the 4x4x4 but I have some problems...

I do: http://stefan-pochmann.de/spocc/blindsolving/3x3/#Memorization Memorization is easy. Stefan ... with my 3x3x3 because my memory for numbers is really...
Hey everyone, I've been doing a lot of thinking about this lately, and wanted to bring up and old topic. I've been looking a lot into memorizing and solving...
I think we can reject 75% of the 576 different orders. I think that solving permutation before orientation would be really bad because then you would have to...

Assuming you always orient the pieces in an orbit before permuting them, then you only have 6 allowable solving orders. Say you orient both right at the start,...
... Hi Chris, If your average dropped a couple of minutes again and again, I wonder how fast you can blindsolve on average now. I partly agree with your...
hye everybody.. i'm new to this group. currently i'm learning about blindsolving the rubik's cube. there's a lot of information i got through this page. thanks...
That's about even and odd permutations, but what it comes down to just this: In general, you can not solve corners and edges independently. Most people are...
Thanks Stefan now i'm quite clear about the parity error. but how do you guys know that the cube has parity error? is there any method to calculate or base on...
I am new to blindfold cubing. I have searched many sites as long as I have been cubing....(kind of lame huh) but I don't get a method for blindfold. ERrrrrr...
Hey everyone, I've been practicing BLD solving a lot lately and I had a question I wanted to bring up. I know most of blindfolded solving is about minimizing...
I'd simply use a different memo route each time ;-) Now I always put two items at one position which saves space (I need only 10-15 positions), adds more...
This is interesting, because I have the same problem... This is a reason why I don't practice too much on blindfold. I still remember a scramble I had in a...
I've only had this problem a few times. One time was when I tried to do a 3x3x3 after doing a 4x4x4. I'm guessing that, because I tend to rush the memorization...
I wish I had known how to forget something when I saw my mom naked that one time; couldn't get the image out of my head. If I had only known about solving the...
Concerning the rules for: Rubik's Cube 3x3x3: Blindfold (number of cubes solved) They say when I attempt six cubes and solve five of them, I can't claim to...
Congrats to your new 3x3 record. Quite a jump from your previous record. Also, nice (though somehow obvious ;-)) idea to solve 2-generator blindfolded. I'll...
Hey Stefan, Thanks about the blindfolded record. Congrats on your 3x3 one as well, though I think you've had it for over a week or so by now. I've been...
I had this idea after Dror popped an edge in Amsterdam, found it but unfortunately inserted it the wrong way. Had he prepared for this case, he could've...
Hello, Stefan recommeneded this group to me. I am interested in memorising things; and the cube is a great challenge. I put a method on the web in December but...
... That might explain why you want to memorize algorithms using memo systems ;-) I'd suggest you try/practice some speedcubing first to get a better idea of...
Hi stefan, Today, I tried out 3 cubes successively. Yes, I did them perfectly. I took 36 min to memorise. Revised 3 times to make sure my memorisation is...
Hi John, congratulations! May I ask about your overall success rate? That is, how many attempts to solve the 3x3 have you had so far and how often were you...
Hi stefan, I had never failed except in few occations (twice) when my wife was scolding me for doing this. yesterday, she was cooperative and infact she only...
Hey guys, I don't know if a lot of people have gotten the Stackmat 2 yet, but for those who haven't yet I've found a slight annoyance about it for blindfolded...
