Alikhan Mynbay (Алихан Мынбай)
2×2 · top 9.8% of 186,767 all-time · competing since October 2017 · 2017MYNB01
Alikhan Mynbay (Алихан Мынбай) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.59, set at Almaty Summer 2018, puts him in the top 9.8% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 94th in Kazakhstan. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since October 2017, he has put 112 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 20% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.02 in October 2017 to 12.33, an 18% improvement. Alikhan has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
