3×3 · top 18.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since October 2015 · 2015JINL01
Liu Jin (金柳) has been competing for 11 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 13.30, set at Huizhou Open 2018, puts her in the top 18.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7,209th in China. Across 5 competitions since October 2015, she has put 37 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 8% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 2 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 22.60 in October 2015 to 13.30, a 41% improvement. Liu has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
