Erdi Altınyay

3×3 · top 9.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2013 · 2013ALTN01

Erdi Altınyay has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.50, set at Turkish Ankara Open 2014, puts him in the top 9.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 119th in Turkey. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since April 2013, he has put 259 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 93% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.27 in April 2013 to 10.50, a 26% improvement. Erdi has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
