Jeriel James Thomas has been competing for 13 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 4.90, set at Oakville Fall A 2022, puts him in the top 0.099% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 8th in Canada. Until November 2015, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 37 competitions since May 2013, he has put 1,334 official solves on the record across nine events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 52.04 in May 2013 to 4.90, a 91% improvement. Jeriel has entered 37 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
