Daniel Kwong Flynn has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.31, set at St Oliver's Speedy Sunday 2023, puts him in the top 15.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,339th in Australia. Across 8 competitions since October 2022, he has put 101 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 71% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.45 in October 2022 to 12.31, a 40% improvement. Daniel has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
