Odd WCA stats/ Stats request Thread

[AndersB]

Regarding the Sum of Coutry Ranks, cubingchina did stats on the website: http://cubingchina.com/results/statistics/sum-of-country-ranks?type=single&lang=en , which is almost up-to-date.

That's awesome!

So Israel is in Asia, but he had ER's

funny that it wasn't noticed for over a decade, Mollerz will probably bring it up soon.

 

[TMOY]

Israel is geographically in Asia, but counts as an European country for political reasons.

Here's one, what is the average official average that someone has before they get an official sub 10 single?

 

[joshsailscga]

Sometime in the last month, somebody broke the 200-person mark for sub-10 average. WCA database shows 201 people now.

Going by comp dates, looks like Guan Ying Chen took the 200th spot, with Ciaran Beahan as 201.

 

[DeeDubb]

I would list of all the current WR holders sorted by what % ahead of the 2nd place competiter they are.

For example, Felik's Ao5 (6.54) is 12.69% better than Alex Lau's (7.37), and Maskows 41/41 MBLD is 57.69% better than Grzegorz Jałocha 26/28

I just found this.

Michael from Indonesia. Second Round 3x3 of IndonesianOpen2011

(25.06), (25.03), 25.03, 25.05, 25.03 = 25.04

¿WR for standar deviation? ¿He did this on purpose or was it natural? Looking to his other times it seems like he tried to get this result :confused:

Lowest standard deviation used to be in the statistics on the WCA website. After people started doing them intentionally (like this), they were removed.

What's the letter distribution in WCA IDs?
Individual percentages would be nice.

Looking just at the 5th-8th characters, the distribution is as follows:

Note that an ID like 2010AAAA01 would count as 4 instances of A. So it's different from counting how many IDs have an A in them at all.

On a side note, this led me to notice that the letter X almost never occurs as the second character in an ID (only 9 people).

I have to ask now, individual percentages in the first character, second character and so on?

I made a mistake when I first posted these: I was looking at the distribution across all results, meaning someone who has entered more rounds had their ID letters counted more. Now each person is just counted once.

 

[guysensei1]

Oh, go on then:

Most common WCA ID is SANA?
Funnily enough only 4 people have the Id of SANA.

 

[Berd]

What's the highest number at the end of someone's id eg: I'm LONG06 which seems to be quite high but I'd be interested to see who else has one higher.
