Cuber density per country

[Bryan]

The USA has 2122 registered cubers o_O

The question is how many unregistered cubers are there? me being one

Unregistered cubers don't count because:

1) There's no good way to get the data.
2) They're not interested enough in going to a competition.

But #1's the big point. Yes, you could rename it "Cubers who have attended a WCA competition density per country", but there's not too much of a need.

Here's my map:

There might be a few mistakes. I put it together very quickly.

Greenland should maybe be a Part of Denmark? xD but whatever I don't know about that

Oh never mind:

I've been looking for something like that for a while

Me, too. Looks nice. Though apparently Singapore and Aruba are too tiny to see them (I didn't even try Macau).

That's indeed why I used WCA numbers, yes. It's all I have. Well, I do know a decent number of national online communities, but gathering those numbers would be cumbersome and still error-prone/incomplete.

That's very presumptuous. A lot of cubers in certain countries would have to take a plane ride to attend one, and many people can't afford that.

But I do understand that using official data is really the only way to effectively implement this.

Singapore can be found there. (Aruba and Macau are not "countries").

 

[Stefan]

Ok, I just found out that I can zoom in, so now I got Singapore and Aruba. Macau still seems too small even with maximum zoom, though.

Aruba and Macau are not "countries"

Wikipedia, the World Factbook and the WCA disagree.

With "countries" I understood "recognized sovereign states".

competition in the rain?

 

[TioMario]

As far as I know... Uruguay's cuber density is:

"1 cuber / 176.215 km^2"

However, we have "0 people with WCA profiles / 176.215 km^2"

PS: Uruguay's total area is 176.215 km^2

I doubt that you are the only cuber in Uruguay

it's happened. I've felt rain on the back of my neck while doing an official 6x6 solve before. Fact.

Unregistered cubers don't count because:

2) They're not interested enough in going to a competition.

Oh gee, try being 16 and saying, "Hey Mom, can I go to Berkeley for a one day cube competition? It's only a 10 hour drive!" And that is the closest competition. I'm very interested; I just don't have the money to go.

I guess money technically isn't an issue... if you are interested enough, walking is always an option

Alternatively, find a way to organize a competition near you.

Wouldn't it be nice if school didn't ever get in the way of long term goals like that?
