From your own results

Your counting three, your first year, your PB

Three designs drawn from a competitor's official results: the five solves of their best average with the outliers struck through, the year of their first competition, or their best single. Times, years and competition names only, never a name. Type in a WCA ID and see it before you buy.

Shown with example figures. Tee, sweatshirt, hoodie or mug.

The average

An average of five keeps the middle three. The mark, the name and these designs make the same gesture.

The penalties

Red is the colour of records on the site. On cloth it is also the colour of what the judge writes.
