Xiaoqing Deng (邓小情) has been competing for 8 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 5.20, set at Shenzhen Open 2018, puts her in the top 14.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,708th in China. Across 6 competitions since April 2018, she has put 85 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 21% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 3 DNFs. Her Pyraminx best has come down from 9.54 in April 2018 to 5.20, a 45% improvement. Xiaoqing has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
