2×2 · top 3.6% of 186,767 all-time · competing since February 2011 · 2011ANON07

Anonymous has been competing for 16 years. Their best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.80, set at Big Apple Spring 2016, puts them in the top 3.6% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since February 2011, they have put 197 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, their 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 97% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside their 4 DNFs. Their 3×3 best has come down from 30.66 in February 2011 to 13.39, a 56% improvement. Anonymous has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
