Square-1 · top 3.3% of 25,272 all-time · competing since May 2024 · 2024DANI08
Timothy Ibrahim has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 8.17, set at North Sydney No Seeing 2026, puts him in the top 3.3% of the 25,272 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 37th in Australia. Until November 2013, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since May 2024, he has put 171 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His Square-1 best has come down from 17.66 in October 2024 to 8.17, a 54% improvement. Timothy 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.
