3×3 · top 9.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since March 2018 · 2018AHMA03
Noorulmursaleen Ahmad has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.58, set at Trois-Rivieres 2019, puts him in the top 9.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 846th in Canada. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since March 2018, he has put 198 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 81% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.89 in March 2018 to 10.58, a 24% improvement. Noorulmursaleen 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.
