Joanne Micaela Ancheta

3×3 one-handed · top 7.8% of 73,695 all-time · competing since November 2015 · 2015ANCH01

Joanne Micaela Ancheta has been competing for 11 years. Her best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 14.83, set at Mindanao Championship 2016, puts her in the top 7.8% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 171st in the Philippines. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since November 2015, she has put 300 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 89% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 12.47 in November 2015 to 10.19, an 18% improvement. Joanne has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
