Neil Avendaño

Pyraminx · top 37.5% of 129,321 all-time · competing since June 2014 · 2014AVEN02

Neil Avendaño has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 8.16, set at Cubing Mérida 2015, puts him in the top 37.5% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 157th in Venezuela. Across 7 competitions since June 2014, he has put 67 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 18% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 1:17.47 in June 2014 to 24.37, a 69% improvement. Neil has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
