Kemuel Tawatao

3×3 · top 6.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2017 · 2017TAWA01

Kemuel Tawatao has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.70, set at Philippine Championship 2017, puts him in the top 6.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 681st in the Philippines. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since April 2017, he has put 38 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.24 in April 2017 to 9.70, a 21% improvement. Kemuel 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.
