Pyraminx · top 2.3% of 129,321 all-time · competing since August 2022 · 2022MCCO06
Boone McCord has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.53, set at Concordia Turning 2022, puts him in the top 2.3% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 601st in the United States. Until January 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since August 2022, he has put 98 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.74 in August 2022 to 15.63, a 17% improvement. Boone has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
