Antonio Melacini

Pyraminx · top 1.8% of 129,321 all-time · competing since June 2016 · 2016MELA03

Antonio Melacini has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.35, set at Newmarket Open 2017, puts him in the top 1.8% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 68th in Canada. Until July 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 15 competitions since June 2016, he has put 327 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 58% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 22.70 in June 2016 to 9.20, a 59% improvement. Antonio has entered 15 competitions, more competitions than 95% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
