Ganesh Krishnamurthy

2×2 · top 13.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since January 2014 · 2014KRIS01

Ganesh Krishnamurthy has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.90, set at Indian Nationals 2015, puts him in the top 13.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,081st in India. Across 6 competitions since January 2014, he has put 112 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 96% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 4.47 in January 2015 to 2.90, a 35% improvement. Ganesh 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.
