He hasn't even been to 42 comps, "Longest first place streak" = winning a comp in my book & there he currently has 13 as best.

Well he's gotten first 42 comp rounds in a row. That could count as a longest first place streak, it just depends on how you look at it.
 
I'm interested in seeing top 100 or 50 for average of 3x3 averages at a 3 round comp, mostly because of Michal's beast performance recently, partly because of my ok performance last weekend :p

I feel like the code for this wouldn't be super hard (not that I know anything about coding), so seeing this for other events would be cool too as long as it's an average of whatever number of rounds is most common for that event.

this gives me an idea: statistics for number of competitions with x rounds (1-4) in y event (3x3...MBLD)
Example:
3x3 with 1 round: (number)
3x3 with 2 rounds: (number)
3x3 with 3 rounds: (number)
3x3 with 4 rounds: (number)
and then repeat that for all events

Also, has there been a one-day comp on a wednesday?
 
So with the Mini Guilford challenge (all events with average of 5) and 3 people. By eye balling it based on best singles I came up with:
Feliks Zemdegs: 5x5: 46.97, 2x2: .88, oh: 6.88, skewb: 4.11 = 58.84
Yu Da-Hyum: mega: 37.58, pyra: 5.41, 3x3: 8.67 = 51.66
Nathaniel Berg: clock: 3.73, sq-1: 20.91, 4x4: 34.38 = 59.02

So theoretically the challenge can be done sub-1, I'm wondering what he fastest possible for 3 people would be(or for any number of people). Eventually the cap would be 46.97 with the 5x5 thou.

Berg's square-1 is really not great for something like this, compared to the small advantage his clock gives. With different people, here's sub-55:

Evan Liu: clock: 4.80, sq-1: 12.59, 4x4: 31.29, skewb: 2.38 = 51.06
Feliks: 5x5: 46.97, OH: 6.88 = 53.85
Louis Cormier: mega: 39.57, pyra: 2.99, 3x3: 6.41, 2x2: 1.08 = 50.05

Fastest I've found using my little optimiser to help:

Feliks: 555,333 = 52.36
Robert: 444,sq1,clock,skewb,pyra,222 = 51.34
Louis: Mega,oh = 50.76

The interesting thing about this is that since 5x5 and mega are the pivotal events to keep the times low, two of the three people are basically locked in, and only the third allows some play. (assuming Louis is necessary for mega because Yu does not have enough all-rounder ability)
It would be interesting to have these three actually try it sometime; with a low-50 optimal, sub-1 really should be done without a problem.
