Arnold Christian Reyes

3×3 · top 4.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since January 2016 · 2016REYE01

Arnold Christian Reyes has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.62, set at Metro Speedcubing Open 2016, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 384th in the Philippines. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since January 2016, he has put 214 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 97% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 10.02 in January 2016 to 8.62, a 14% improvement. Arnold has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
