Stumbled upon Rama temmink's WCA-profile and saw that his best 3x3 average ranking and time are the "same", is he the only one or are there more of these?

Changes pretty much everytime a new comp is added, but here they are as of the export I downloaded earlier today.

personID eventid a/s best worldrank
2010TUOZ01 444 average 7947 7947
2017SHAR06 444 average 7947 7947
2015TIAN09 444 average 7947 7947

I did look at this yesterday on an old WCA export and there were a lot more.

SELECT personID, eventid, 'average' `a/s`, best, worldrank from ranksaverage where best=worldrank
UNION
SELECT personID, eventid, 'single' `a/s`, best, worldrank from rankssingle where best=worldrank
 
Fastest time taken (in terms of days/years) to complete all WCA events?

Is there anyone who completed all on their first comp?
This is my new goal, to be the fastest one to get a silver membership. :D

6x6 and 7x7 will be the most difficult events, as I don't even have the cubes yet. Feet and clock will be fairly easy to get an average at, I think. Oh yeah, and I've not yet competed in 5x5 either, but that's also easy, I guess.

Is there a theoretical maximum for the possible number of people who have no nemeses? Too tired to think about it
I'm pretty sure there is.

If you can only compete in one event, then there is a limit of 33 (18 single + 15 average).
If you can compete in two events, then there is a limit of 1093 (((33+32+31...3+2+1)x2)+33)
If that stands, as you expand the number of events that a person can compete in, the limit should expand also, but it would get really enormous.

Can someone who knows what they are talking about double check me?

If you can compete in two events, then there is a limit of like (33+(32+31..3+2+1)x2=1093) or something.

I guess you'd also have to take into account the fact that, if you have an average in anything, you by default have a single, and have therefore competed in at least 'two' events

Right... didn't think about that...

Well, my point still stands, there should be a theoretical maximum limit to the number of people with no nemeses.

If theres only 2 events there can be as many people as you want with no nemeses

Lets say 100 people

Person 1 is #1 at 3x3 but #100 at 2x2
Person 2 is #2 at 3x3 but #99 at 2x2
...
Person 99 is 99 at 3x3 but 2 at 2x2
Person 100 is 100 at 3x3 but 1 at 2x2

So nobody nemesises anybody and this idea can be extended to infinity.

You can do something similar with any number of events (except 1 ofc)

EDIT: also you can just have everybody be tied at every event so nobody has nemeses
