Anirudh Ranjan
2×2 · top 6.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since January 2017 · 2017RANJ01
Anirudh Ranjan has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.19, set at Cubing ATMOSphere 2017, puts him in the top 6.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 474th in India. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since January 2017, he has put 35 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 33.64 in January 2017 to 19.10, a 43% improvement. Anirudh has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% of everyone who has ever competed.

Percentile against all competitors ever ranked in each event, a fairer measure than raw rank, because the pools differ by a factor of ten.

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.
