Maciej Skoczeń has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.02, set at Project Mielec 2018, puts him in the top 7.8% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 520th in Poland. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since May 2014, he has put 110 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 23.06 in May 2014 to 12.33, a 47% improvement. Maciej 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.
