Pyraminx · top 23.0% of 129,321 all-time · competing since April 2023 · 2023GRIF13

Joel Griffiths has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 6.40, set at Manchester August 2024, puts him in the top 23.0% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 902nd in the United Kingdom. Across 3 competitions since April 2023, he has put 68 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 24.20 in April 2023 to 14.92, a 38% improvement. Joel has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
