[Member Intro] Ever heard of Turkmenistan?

[tim_arazmedov]

Hello. I'm Tim (16 y.o) and I am the best cuber in my home country — Turkmenistan. Proven by a couple of non-WCA competitions, no one is even close to my level in here. I have been cubing for 6 years with no cubing events and no cubing community in general. My 3x3 Personal Best Single is 4.64s.

As a school student, I have been invited to a couple of national TV shows for talented youth. Also, there once was an exhibition of local food companies, which I attended with a goal to take something from them; I still laugh remembering their reactions on a Rubik's Cube solved in 10 seconds. In the end, I had a huge bag of snacks, sweets, drinks, etc.

I'm looking forward to get to an official comp someday soon. Until then, this place is a way for me to show everyone that Turkmenistan's got cubing too!

Welcome to the forums! There are a couple of competitions being held in northern Iran and Tashkent every now and then, are you able to go to those or are you limited to just Turkmenistan for now

I'm no geography expert but I'm pretty sure it is really hard for Turkmenistan citizens to leave their country, someone correct me if I'm wrong

Turkmenistan is largely known in the West as a former Soviet state that continued to be a dictatorship. Actually, most people don't know about it.

Turkmenistan is well-known for traditional carpets. That's represented by the pattern on the lefthand side of their flag, and it's VERY intricate. There's even a carpet museum in Ashgabat.

For countries (in addition to Saudi Arabia), there's also Barbados (trident), Mozambique (AK-47), Sri Lanka (sword), eSwatini (spears), Kenya (spears), Angola (machete). I think there are probably a few more, but I can't remember them.
