Tejas Ganesh Iyer

Pyraminx · top 7.5% of 129,321 all-time · competing since April 2017 · 2017IYER04

Tejas Ganesh Iyer has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.97, set at Primus Cube Open - May 2018, puts him in the top 7.5% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 431st in India. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since April 2017, he has put 237 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 64% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His Pyraminx best has come down from 10.54 in April 2017 to 3.97, a 62% improvement. Tejas has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
