2×2 · top 30.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since April 2012 · 2012JYEN01
Nicholas Ong Khai Jye has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 4.28, set at Taylor's Cube Open 2013, puts him in the top 30.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 919th in Malaysia. Across 5 competitions since April 2012, he has put 76 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 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 49.27 in April 2012 to 18.53, a 62% improvement. Nicholas 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.
