Louis cant be because i have a better 3BLD mean, nakaji doesn't even have one, and i've realised an error, i would need a third person because i also beat yuhei at mega average, that third person can be one of 83 people
Oops forgot that you also have a better 3bld mean.
Seems likely that 3 is the answer then: Me, 1 for feets and mega avg, 1 for 3bld mean.
I cause so much weirdness by not having a decent 3bld mean :/
 
Well, you're not the worst. Example:

https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2010CULL01

Which naturally leads to the following question, who has the biggest difference between BLD single and BLD mean ? Not counting people who have no official mean of course.

Edit: wow, Linus is also quite impressive...

I guess I am one of the worst, because my ratio is nearly 1:4.. (3.97 exactly)
But a statistic would be nice :)
 
Too lazy to actually figure out the team of people who combined are my nemesis, but I know it's more than 2 people because the 2 people ahead of me for skewb don't beat my 2x2 or sq1 avg, and the 5 people ahead of me for 2x2 avg don't beat my skewb or sq1 avg :3

If someone would be willing to figure out the team for me, that'd be swell :tu

Bill (2x2, 3x3, OH), Jonatan (Pyra, Skewb), and Yu (the rest).
 
Can anyone get lower than a 6 person nemesis team for Yu Nakajima? The best team I could find was Feliks, Yuhei (Takagi), Daniel Sheppard, a good FM single holder (e.g. Tomoaki), a decent sq1er (e.g. Bingliang Li), a decent pyraminxer (e.g. Drew Brads)

He really is hard to beat.

What about Feliks? Of course he holds world records so it not possible to beat him. How about this: Switch all of Feliks' "1" ranks with the person behind him. So for 5x5x5 for example, Kevin Hays is now supposedly number 1 for 5x5x5 single and average, and Feliks is number 2.

Now what would the smallest nemesis team be for Feliks? :p

Mats Valk (3x3x3 single)
Sebastian Weyer (4x4x4)
Kevin Hays (5x5x5,6x6x6)
Lucas Etter (3x3x3 average, 2x2x2 average)
Cornelius Dieckmann (2x2x2 single)
Bence Barat (3BLD, Sq1, 7x7x7)
Neil Morales (OH single)
Antoine Cantin (OH average, Skewb)
Daniel Sheppard (4,5,MultiBLD, Clock, FM)
Louis Cormier (Megaminx)
Drew Brads (Pyraminx)

Can anyone beat 11 XD
 
Most competitions don't use FMC sheets

I'd love to see some stats on that.

Most competitions don't even have FMC.

How does that compare to last year? Would be interesting to see :)

Another random discovery of mine: If I'm not mistaken, Daniel Sheppard and Simon Westlund have managed to beat all WRs in 2006. Has anyone else accomplished this? (I'm not sure about magic and master magic though, if that matters to you :p)

Magics WRs at the end of 2006 were: 1.07 and 1.15, 2.48 and 3.15. I only got Magic Single. Simon didn't manage any of those.
But yeah, that's kind of unfair to any newer cubers who didn't have the chance to do Magics anyway.
Neither of us competed in Multiblind old style.
 
who has the most NR's broken at 1 comp, breaking same record multiple times counts as well(maybe me with my 17 NR's last weekend?)?

Meh, you only got as many as faz.

Today I realized I have a better official skewb average than 2x2 average (because my 2x2 average had one 9 and a DNF). Are there any combinations of two events where only 1 person has a better result in one than the other? I think there was only 1 person with a better 5BLD than 4BLD, but I'm not sure.
 
What is the time that appears more times? Counting all events, single and average.
For example, if (fictional example) 13.15 appears 24 times in 2x2 single, 15 in 2x2 average, 30 in pyraminx single, and 17 in pyraminx average, it appears 86 times.
