Pyraminx · top 5.7% of 129,321 all-time · competing since November 2015 · 2015FAMA01

John Rey Famarato has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.55, set at Tagum City Open 2016, puts him in the top 5.7% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 128th in the Philippines. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since November 2015, he has put 208 official solves on the record across nine events.

John has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
