Guan-yi Wu (吳冠毅)
2×2 · top 10.5% of 186,767 all-time · competing since December 2010 · 2010WUGU01
Guan-yi Wu (吳冠毅) has been competing for 16 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.66, set at Taiwan Winter 2012, puts him in the top 10.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 292nd in Chinese Taipei. Across 7 competitions since December 2010, he has put 112 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 one-handed best has come down from 33.13 in December 2010 to 17.43, a 47% improvement. He 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.
