Daniel Poreda has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 9.09, set at Michigan 2019, puts him in the top 45.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 13,117th in the United States. Across 10 competitions since March 2017, he has put 127 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 81% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 42.59 in March 2017 to 27.81, a 35% improvement. Daniel has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
