I feel like a lot was lost when Cubeorama was taken down, maybe you could expand the Training section of the site?
Mostly with a Square-1 CS and CSP trainer.

I can add that to my todo list

I saw you suggested in another thread to add sq1 EP algs, and that page is ready now.

It would be nice to have other events as well (like skewb, clonk, and sq-1)! Maybe you could also add variations of each event (3OH, 4BLD, etc.) to recons.

Also, a memo trainer for 3BLD and Clonk (sheerin/7-simul) would be really helpful.

Thanks!

Something I’ve always liked about cubeDB was the ability for it to critique your solves

A memo trainer for 7simul already exists

Something else that I feel is really needed is a Megaminx alg trainer, especially for big alg sets like PLL and OLL

 

[Discomantis]

I think NS for Skewb might be a good idea. It is a big commitment though.

I have added SQ1 EP, CS, and CSP to the alg trainer

Can you add a solve split option to the timer?

Can you add a solve split option to the timer?

I can do that if people would like it.

Personally I am not a fan of splits that require you to press a button to record a split. That takes time and makes the splits inaccurate.

On the other hand, the virtual cube can meaure splits automatically. It can detect as soon as a step is done and record the split.

The Kinch Rank calculator color codes the status of every event and says Good, Okay, Needs Work, etc.
Why not have that on the Sum of Ranks calculator, too?

You missed what I said.
I didn't say why not a SoR calculator.
I said why not have the color codes on the SoR calc like they're on the Kinch calc.

Ideally the color would also depend on how many people have competed in an event. Top 1000 for 3x3 is a lot different than Top 1000 for 5BLD

Unfortunately I don't have a great way of finding the number of competitors for each event. I'm querying the wca stats server

Do you want the number of competitors in each event who have at least one single in that event, or who have an average?
Or both? I have a list of both, if you want. I download the database export every so often to play with.
or I have a sql query for the wca database that will give it.

yes, both single and average

that would be very helpful!

Rank a user-selected group of people by Kinch, as well as by side event kinch, NxN kinch, BLD kinch, and 3x3 event kinch?
And same thing but for sum of ranks

 

[UncleFrank]

This is accurate as of a database export I downloaded last night.
single avg 3x3 199014 194302 2x2 129325 125257 pyra 87787 83794 4x4 59396 38276 OH 52310 40552 skewb 49360 46958 5x5 28500 18466 mega 22382 13313 sq1 17030 12718 clock 14953 11215 6x6 11263 7995 7x7 9079 6247 3bld 8776 2487 fmc 8582 3660 mbld 2985 4bld 1387 279 5bld 716 99

edit, can't get them to line up. oh, well.

That's an interesting suggestion. What would you use it for? I try to prioritize what would help the most people, so if more people want it, then I may add that feature

Also btw, @UncleFrank The sum of ranks calculator has colors now
