Diogo Silva has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.32, set at Rodo Open 2019, puts him in the top 9.3% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 26th in Portugal. Until September 2006, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since April 2018, he has put 59 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.05 in April 2018 to 16.08, a 16% improvement. Diogo has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
