The moment has come.Lets decide who was the Cuber of the Year 2011!Please vote on the poll.Here is some info about the cubers:
1.Feliks Zemdegs set the 3x3 world record single with 5.66 seconds(probably the only non-lucky sub-6 solve ever done) and the 3x3 WR average with 7.64 seconds,4x4 WR average with 35.22 seconds,5x5 WR single with 56.22 seconds,5x5 WR average with 59.94 seconds(first official sub-1 minute 5x5 average in history) and he also set the WR 2x2 average with 2.12 seconds.
2.Michał Pleskowicz won the Rubik's cube 2011 World Championship with a 8.65 average,and he also set the 3x3 One-Handed WR single with 9.53 seconds and the 3x3 OH WR average with 13.57 seconds.
3. Mats Valk
4.Yu Nakajima made a great comeback to cubing.
5.Zane Carney set the WR in MultiBLD with 24/25

I know there have been a lot more great cubers in this year,but I think this is enough to choose from.
If you want to you can add some additional information about the cubers in your post.
And,ok,that's it.LETS VOTE!!!
Eventhough Michał is now the World Champion my vote goes off to Feliks. :)

First of all, why should we have to pick just between two cubers? Just because they're good at a few specific puzzles doesn't make them Cuber of the Year. Also, I think this would be better off as an addition to the 2011 Forum Awards rather than it's own thread.
 
Can some of the moderators please add Mats Valk to the poll.Please give me some more suggestions people.We definitely need to add more cubers to this poll.

You don't get it...even if you use the maximum 10 poll options, there's still not enough to choose from

I know there have been a lot more great cubers in this year,but I think neither of them can compare to Feliks and Michał.

Wrong.

Anyway I vote Michal.

I think 10 top cubers in the poll would be enough options to choose from.But,whatever,everybody will probably vote for Feliks anyway.

Wrong.

Anyway I vote Michal.

I said first OFFICIAL(which means it's done at a competition) sub-1 5x5 average.Which is true.

Just so you know, you don't have to have a poll. People could just post their vote as a comment, and then you could go through and count how many votes each cuber has.
