Huang Weijie
3×3 · top 8.3% of 284,439 all-time · competing since February 2009 · 2009WEIJ01
Huang Weijie has been competing for 18 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.27, set at NUS Rubik's Cube Competition 2011, puts him in the top 8.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 219th in Singapore. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since February 2009, he has put 103 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.86 in February 2009 to 10.27, a 42% improvement. Huang has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
