Memphis McCullough
Pyraminx · top 8.6% of 129,321 all-time · competing since July 2022 · 2022MCCU02
Memphis McCullough has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.18, set at CubingUSA Southeast Championship 2022, puts him in the top 8.6% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,205th in the United States. Until September 2006, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since July 2022, he has put 101 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. Memphis has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
