Donovan Nunes

3×3 · top 13.8% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2016 · 2016NUNE17

Donovan Nunes has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 11.96, set at UCSD Fall 2024, puts him in the top 13.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7,372nd in the United States. Across 5 competitions since December 2016, he has put 38 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 36.87 in December 2016 to 11.96, a 68% improvement. Donovan has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
