Pyraminx · top 13.9% of 130,891 all-time · competing since June 2010 · 2010WORD01
Andy Worden has been competing for 16 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 5.11, set at Minnesota Open 2011, puts him in the top 13.9% of the 130,891 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,693rd in the United States. Across 7 competitions since June 2010, he has put 158 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 81% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 54.22 in June 2010 to 18.46, a 66% improvement. Andy has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
