Daniele Buccolieri has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.82, set at Turin Winter Open 2019, puts him in the top 7.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 267th in Italy. Until October 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since November 2014, he has put 233 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 75% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.94 in November 2014 to 9.82, an 18% improvement. Daniele has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
