even if they did join in pre-2020, they probably would have beaten their PRs already

0/4 because of this

 

[FenTheGoat]

I went to my first comp in June 2022

I've been into cubing since before covid-19 but I never actually learned how to solve a cube until last year. I actually got very close to learning how to solve a cube when I was like 7 or 8 in 2017/18 when my mom and I looked up a tutorial on youtube but it was fake, the guy literally said to solve it to the checkerboard pattern without saying how it's too bad the j perm tutorial wasn't out yet or I would've been like xuanyi before he was born lol (probably not that fast tho)

technically you weren’t “cubing” in pre-covid, since you didn’t know how to solve one. I think a better word would be “discovered”

I didn't say I was cubing, I said I was into it

For me it is 20/33. I am working to try to decrease it, but it's not easy.

 

[BVCuber13]

For me it is 20/37. I am working to try to decrease it, but it's not easy.

Which deleted events are you counting? I see you've done Feet, Magic, and Master Magic (not counting Old Style MBLD because, well, that's still MBLD)

For me it is 0/33, even though I started cubing in 2015 I didn't go to my first competition until January 2019 and I was terrible back then lol

 

[-Cube Kid-]

0. I didn't cube back then.

 

[Fred]

I only went to one competition pre-COVID, and I beat those PRs pretty quickly. The hardest result to beat was the triple DNF in 3bld, but I finally got a success earlier this year!

Oh Oops. Corrected. 20/33.

It's easier to see this through wca.cuber.pro e.g. https://wca.cuber.pro/person/2009ZEMD01

Though it hasn't been updated in a few months

My 8.20 skewb single still stands from my first comp in summer 2019.

 

[Square56]

Currently 10/10, but once WCA updates with my comp from last weekend it'll be 4/12. 3x3 single, 2x2 single, squan single and avg (haven't practiced squan since pre-covid). I like this question!

 

[Hazel]

My most recent competition was 2019, so...

 

[xyzzy]

0/22 still standing.

10/22 were broken at the first round I competed post-lockdown. Longest-standing one is square-1 (broken in 2025) because most comps here have a cutoff of 30 seconds and I used to not be able to consistently hit sub-30.

Also have a bunch of hard events on my profile that I didn't pre-2020: 3BLD single, 4BLD single, MBLD, and of course pyraminx and clock.
