Clock · top 6.9% of 32,048 all-time · competing since May 2023 · 2023GRIE01

Carmine Griego has been competing for 3 years. Their best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 5.90, set at CubingUSA Rocky Mountain Championship 2024, puts them in the top 6.9% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 540th in the United States. Until July 2011, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since May 2023, they have put 174 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, their 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 61% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Their 3×3 best has come down from 17.47 in May 2023 to 10.41, a 40% improvement. Carmine has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
