ideal average calculator

[Deleted member 36445]

I don't know if this has been posted here before but I found this today and found out my ideal averages for each event, based on world record average.

Cool but it still thinks the wr ao5 is 4.86

Always nice to be reality checked about my progression with events other than 3x3.

 

[SpeedCubeLegend17]

Well apparently I suck at 2x2, 5x5, OH, and Skewb

 

[ProStar]

Nice useful tool

i global like 1:45 on mega

but i should global 55

oh no

According to my best 6x6 average I am supposed to be a 22 second 3x3 solver, but according to my best 3x3 average I am supposed to average 2:47.48 on 6x6, this thing is fun, even though it may not be 100% accurate.

This is pretty interesting, I was surprised how close the ideal it gave was to my actual times in most events!
My 3x3 average: 8.46
2x2, ideal (1.78) matches exactly with my actual 2x2 average
6x6 ideal was 2:00.51 and my actual is 2:00.62
OH ideal was 15.06, actual is 15.38
Square-1 ideal was 8.74 and actual is 8.61

Although these are probably a bit different now because like half of the WRs aren't up to date lol.

The Ideal Average Calculator is based on a comment that J Perm made under one of his videos a few years ago, with the theory that the ratio between your times on a NxN, and your times on any other NxN, should be more or less the same as the ratio between the world records for the same cubes. That's assuming you put in a similar amount of time, effort, and practice, on each of those cubes.
Someone on Reddit saw the comment and made a spreadsheet to calculate it. Someone else turned it into that website.

Not bad.

That reflects my solving times quite good.
For the fast events like 2x2 and pyra the calculations are too low but that may be related to the 70's CPU in my head

half of the WRs aren't up to date lol.

That site was last updated about 8 months ago, in August. (based on discussion I had on Reddit at that time with the site's author).
True, the world records have changed. But the ratios between the world records don't change that much, because [almost] all the world records change at a similar rate. The ratios using current world records are almost the same as they were 8 months ago, and which weren't that much different than from the previous site update almost 3 years ago.

There used to be a website over 10 years ago, you put in any of your PBs and it calculated how low/high your PBs of other Events are.
Edit: This site seems to do the same.

I tried it... It's really cool

 

[Garf]

From my mega average, I'm slow at the other events lol.

 

[ZZCUBER]

While this is cool, it has a major flaw that is using WRs as ratios. Most WRs are held by people who mostly practice that event and don't have WR averages in other events. For this reason I feel like it would make more sense to use median averages rather than WR averages.

True, but if every WR average is held by a person maining that event, then it's a constant. Meaning a Person allrounding all Events evenly would, in theory, would have the same ratio for all events.

 

[Cuber2s]

according to this, I am slow at everything but 3x3

Maybe you’re just fast at 3x3

Apparently I’m amazing at 5x5, and decent at 2x2, 4x4, and 6x6.
