William Fehr
Skewb · top 10.0% of 73,281 all-time · competing since April 2018 · 2018FEHR01
William Fehr has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 3.86, set at No 3x3x3 Cambridge 2019, puts him in the top 10.0% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 211th in Canada. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since April 2018, he has put 187 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 90% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.31 in April 2018 to 11.47, a 44% improvement. William has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
