Pyraminx · top 4.9% of 129,321 all-time · competing since June 2019 · 2019MACU02
Joanna Macuk has been competing for 7 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.35, set at Gdańsk Open 2020, puts her in the top 4.9% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 349th in Poland. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since June 2019, she has put 158 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 75% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 45.08 in June 2019 to 10.74, a 76% improvement. Joanna has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
