Skewb · top 6.9% of 73,281 all-time · competing since June 2016 · 2016SIGE01
Nolan Sigethy has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 3.36, set at River Hill Spring 2018, puts him in the top 6.9% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,064th in the United States. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since June 2016, he has put 136 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 66% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 31.25 in June 2016 to 13.29, a 57% improvement. Nolan has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
