How many cubers have already achieved sub10?

And there are even people who started cubing in the 80s and are not sub-10 yet. They really suck.

(Actually, I haven't heard of any sub-10 cuber who was already cubing in the 80s. Are there any ?)
 
Last year on the 2nd of September I started cubing. I achieved a sub 20 Ao100 on January the 1st I think :P. I was hoping to be sub 10 by the 2nd of September this year but now I'll probably be sub 13ish. I think i would have made it to sub 10 but I had a 4 months brake of cubing :( ..........
Oh well :P
Do you think I could be sub 10 by November? :P
Thanks ^^

Just keep cubing and don't worry about these questions, lol.
 
Update and added list by nations.

This is a comparision between cubers sub11 avg. officially and number of cubers in the list by nations:
USA (27 - 21)
Japan (15 - 16)
Germany (11 - 14)
Poland (8 - 8)
China (16 - 8)
Canada (9 - 8)
United Kingdom (5 - 7)
Italy (6 - 6)
Indonesia (8 - 5)
Australia (2 - 4)
Thailand (9 - 4)
Sweden (4 - 4)
Brazil (2 - 3)
Netherlands (4 - 3)
France (4 - 3)
Malaysia (4 - 3)
Finland (2 - 2)
South Korea (5 - 2)
Austria (1 - 1)
Hungary (4 - 1)
Spain (2 - 1)
Norway (2 - 1)
Russia (2 - 1)
Singapore (1 - 1)
Taiwan (8 - 1)
Israel (0 -1)
Vietnam (1 - 1)

Countries that started a thread like this (or similar) on their national forums, have a low ratio (like German, USA, UK, Poland, Italy, Japan, Scandinavia); others have a very high one (Taiwan and China).
If anyone know if these nations have an unofficial ranking would be great.
 
I'm trying to make it so people can submit updates/additions to the site but it doesn't want to work...can you take a look at the code below to see if there's anything wrong with it?

Code:
INSERT INTO allsub10 (Name,Country,Time) 
VALUES ('TEST','USA','6.52') 
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE allsub10
SET Country = USA, Time = 6.52
WHERE Name = 'TEST'
LIMIT 1

Error given: #1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'SET Country = USA, Time = 6.52
WHERE Name = 'TEST'
LIMIT 1' at line 4

Obviously this is one of the minor things, but it would make things easier to keep up with :p

Any other ideas for the site?
 
9.69 average of 12, Riley Woo, USA.

Times: 9.05, 9.15, 9.83, 9.42, 10.38, 10.09, 9.21, (10.77), 9.55, 10.10, 10.10, (8.55)
8.55 was a PLL skip, the rest were full step, very easy scrambles

Took about 1 year and 3 1/2 months, is this one of the fastest to get here?
 
Congratulations on sub-10 :D
But your profile says you've been cubing since 2007... I don't understand?

Oh, back then I was 9-10 years old and was using a Rubik's brand with a very beginner LBL. I didn't know what anything really was (terminology, etc). I didn't practice, I just learned how to solve it, and my parents brought me to two competitions. When I got back in May of last year, I totally had forgotten how to solve it. So I relearned, and actually practiced with speed cubes so that's why I counted it as 1 year and 3 1/2 months. Thanks though.

I got a sub-10 in about 10 months, but I haven't been practicing 3x3 lately (big cubes ftw). I think that is still one of the faster averages to get here though.
Congrats btw
 
*no SQL knowledge*
Can you edit it so that it accepts times like 9.xx / 8.6x? I feel like having so many "9.99 cubers" is weird.

Also,
Leong Wing Sik is close to sub-10 at home, he has a 10.10 average of 12.

Nope. IMO if they're unsure of what the X is, it should be a 9. Plus, I have it so MySQL sorts it, so it would be a pain to make it accept X as 9.

Also updated it with recent results
