John David L. Olesco
3×3 · top 3.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since September 2017 · 2017OLES01
John David L. Olesco has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.12, set at Philippine Championship 2019, puts him in the top 3.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 291st in the Philippines. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since September 2017, he has put 106 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 97% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 10.82 in September 2017 to 8.12, a 25% improvement. John has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
