Stefan Pochmann's clock average from 2005 is still in the top 100 list.

Actually it's just a clock mean. Btw there are still 3 Clock means in the top 100

This might be a difficult one, but I'd love to see a Sum of Singles/Averages for countries.

Where each event's NR counts by it's World ranking. For example, Australia would have a sum of singles of 389, as the world ranking for every Australian NR single adds up to 389.

I don't know whether it's more impressive that that is still top 100 worthy or more pathetic that I never improved it

If you include my other two solves from that competition and take the average of 5, it's actually better (9.67 avg5, 9.74 mean3).

Has been done a few times, I'm too lazy to go back and find the statistic though.

I've wrote a VBA macro to do this, but haven't run it for a while as I don't want to download anything (i.e. the database) while I'm waiting for broadband to arrive.
It's not too difficult...except for the silly people who switch nationalities and cause problems.

The following charts shows the usage of cubecomps by WCA competitions since it has started as it is now (Barcelona Winter Open 2012, Jan 26-27 2012).

Spoiler: WCA Competitions with Cubecomps Usage Chart

Each competition is represented by a vertical line. Each line is either red or green. Since there has been a lot of competitions since (1131), it's impossible to reference all competition names, so only a few are shown on the X-axis, just for time reference purposes.

Spoiler: WCA Competitions using Cubecomps in 2012,2013 and 2014

 

[Myachii]

Probably been asked before, but I'm curious:
Highest number of comps attended by one person?
Longest time one WR has stood?
Most 1st comp cubers attended one comp? (i.e, the highest number of people attending a competition for the first time at the same comp[confusing ik..])

 

[Randomno]

Highest number of comps attended by one person?

https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/statistics.php#most_competitions

Longest time one WR has stood?

Minh Thai's WR ofc. Otherwise, https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/statistics.php#oldest_world_records.

Most 1st comp cubers attended one comp? (i.e, the highest number of people attending a competition for the first time at the same comp[confusing ik..]

Most likely Worlds 2003.

 

[supercavitation]

Who has the best mean of all solves (excluding DNFs and FMC)?

Also, best mean of all NxN solves? All non-NxN solves? All sighted solves? All blindfolded solves?

 

[Stefan]

Most likely Worlds 2003.

Not even close. It's place 21. Try again.

 

[Randomno]

No idea then.

I found Ron and Kong Chai, but who's the third not first-time competitor?
