Giuseppe Simone Buzzo
Pyraminx · top 7.4% of 129,321 all-time · competing since September 2023 · 2023BUZZ01
Giuseppe Simone Buzzo has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.95, set at Parthenope Summer Open 2024, puts him in the top 7.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 163rd in Italy. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since September 2023, he has put 260 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 83% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.67 in September 2023 to 11.37, a 45% improvement. Giuseppe has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
