I wanted to put this rule change suggestion up for discussion. Rule ... I would suggest that it should also be acceptable to hold the cube behind/under a...
I don't think the way I had in mind makes cheating possible. I meant questions like: - Are all edges oriented correctly now? - Are all corners permuted...
Okay - I've got a problem. I have solved a cube blindfolded, but it was only once, and that was ages ago. I'd like to be able to do it some more, but it just...
... great ... How ... Here comes something I intended to suggest anyway. It helps me a lot for the setup sequences and reversing them, at least to get them ...
I've been thinking more about blindfold cubing lately... I'd like to finally do another cube blindfolded (without spending an hour on it), and it's made me...
Hey everyone! The results of the Feb. 29 contest are up. Dave Orser won the Division I contest (memorizing and solving) with a fantastic time of 3:27! Jim...
First of all, I use my own method for memory blindfold cubing. In my method, I combine orientation and permuting of corners into one phase and orientation and...
Check out the contest page for the open division results. There were 4 category attempts, 3 of which were successful. Thanks to everyone for participating....
Hey I have a lot of questions, so sorry but this is going to be a long post (I seem to always do that apparently). I started doing blindfold solving by giving...
Hi Jim, would you be willing to tell us more about how you solve it? I think I use a similar system (at least I'm doing orientation and permutation at the same...
... 95 ... This is not the advanced method - this is not even the intermediate method. Those algorithms were from much earlier, less developed, versions....
blindfold fellows, i can solve the corners (orent + perm) and orient edges, but the permuation for the edges is just too much (as of now). i've been working...
Hi Brent, can you describe more precisely what your problem is? Is it memorizing? Is it the setup-moves before and after an algorithm application? Is it...
Stefan, First of all congratulations on solving the Megaminx while blindfolded! I am only now getting around to learning to solve that one (by sight). I had...
Chris, I'm guessing that you have spent a lot more time learning how to blindfold solve using your piece-by-piece method than you have spent using the cycle...
Hi Jim, thanks a lot for your extensive description. Indeed we use the same basic method I think, but you use way more algorithms and seem to know some tricks...

Here's how I solve the cube blindfolded quickly: First off I see if there will be a parity error. I quickly count off the corner cycles. Corner cycles can be...
great method! Just what I was looking for. And memorization won't necessarly take more time. I've got your algs from an optimizer now with the exception of 1...

Pedro, When I do corners, almost all of the time I get three corners oriented properly on the same side using whatever setup moves are necessary, then I use...
To my knowledge, Dror Vomberg's 3:56 (memorization included) at Toronto last August is still the official record. If there has been an official blindfold...
Hi Stefan, Although I didn't time my memorization and planning for my 1:15 solve, I'm guessing that it was no more than 10-15 minutes. My normal solve times...
