Chuqi Liu (刘楚祺) has been competing for 10 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 8.03, set at Zibo Open 2016, puts her in the top 36.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,948th in China. Across 7 competitions since August 2016, she has put 89 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 18% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 3 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 57.06 in August 2016 to 18.78, a 67% improvement. Chuqi 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.
