2×2 · top 9.6% of 189,179 all-time · competing since November 2014 · 2014CAKM01
Arman Cakmakcioglu has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.56, set at Cubing Classic 2016, puts him in the top 9.6% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 739th in Australia. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since November 2014, he has put 160 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 64% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 28.01 in November 2014 to 12.81, a 54% improvement. Arman has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
