Jan Kołaczyk
Pyraminx · top 2.6% of 129,321 all-time · competing since December 2016 · 2016KOLA03
Jan Kołaczyk has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.65, set at Project Warszawa 2018, puts him in the top 2.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 207th in Poland. Until October 2010, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since December 2016, 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 9 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.91 in December 2016 to 13.26, a 30% improvement. Jan has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
