A few updates:

1) Added a bunch of people listed by qqwref on page 1 of this thread - now 106 people but a few don't do 3x3x3
2) Added a better re-direct for the dynamic rankings page - https://cubing.mikeg.me.uk/oldies
3) Tweaked the header of the readme - explained how to get someone added and how the age is calculated

I was just noticing that I shouldn't be at the top of 5BLD because of István. Thanks for adding him. Now I have a new target. :)

(But I feel like surely he was older than 43 when he did that?)

Also, István's username here is Pitzu. But he hasn't been active here in a couple of years.

Ron provided the DOB to me yesterday.

Hi there, I was born in 1970 and I will compete @Bangkok Open 2019 tomorrow for the first time. I don't have WCAid yet. I'm very exciting to compete. I guess I will be the oldest person in Thailand who compete in WCA event but it doesn't matter. Happy to see this thread. Regards, Siwasan

I signed up for my first competition yesterday. I signed up for 3x3x3, 2x2x2, 4x4x4, Clock, Pyraminx and Skewb. I don't even have a competition legal 4x4x4 or Skewb, but I'm hoping to quickly buy those at the competition before I start competing. :)

4x4x4 is going to be a challenge to make the cut off, which is at 4 minutes. I should be able to get 5 attempts in for the rest. Even though it's been 30 years since I solved my Rubik's Clocks...

Edit: The cut off is 1.30 minutes. I will never make that, ever. Not even if-- Well let's just keep it at never.
