Eli Day has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 8.09, set at Utah's California Gull Extravaganza 2022, puts him in the top 68.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 28,262nd in the United States. Across 8 competitions since April 2022, he has put 62 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. Eli has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
