Takao is a great guy. I've been to a lot of competitions with him, a number of years ago. For a while there, he would travel almost anywhere in the USA that held square-1. And he's the first person I know to have solved a square-1 BLD; he did it speedBLD style, in less than 15 minutes!
 

In last year's FMC in the Cubing World Championship, I also got 32, 32, 32 for an average of 32, and came 32nd...

This is more of a forum stats question:
Which banned member on this forum has had the most posts before being banned?
 
Apparently @Tao Yu nemesises more people than Martin Vaedele Edgal in Europe? :eek:
If you're basing that on Nemesizer, it looks like there's a bug whereby it gets confused between China and Ireland for Tao. Martin's results should be right, but I think Tao's are wrong... I'll take a look later and see if I can fix that.
 
It is impressive to see that he attended 103 competitions and didn't even care to solve a 3x3 in a single one of them. Since 2014 he dropped Megaminx and is doing Square-1 exclusively. :eek:
I know your post is a little old, but as I was looking at the WCA website I came across the results from Yucheng Chen and your post reminded of his results, in which he has been to 42 competition with no 3x3 result: https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/persons/2015CHEN49
 
Has anybody known to be lgbt+ ever made it to 3x3 finals in US nationals?
Cubing doesn't discriminate. lgbt+ or straight, you probably won't make it into the 3x3x3 finals in US nationals unless you practice a whole lot which is not influenced by your orientation/gender ;)
I am also pretty sure this isn't registered in anyplace where we get stats from.

If there is anyone in particular that you liked from the 3x3x3 finals in US nationals but that would need to be lgbt+ for the two of you to have a chance, I would suggest to contact them in private ;)

Checks history, :eek:, I made it to the B Final in US Open 2007...close enough :p
