Longest registered name. Not really that odd... but just really long!

 

[Rune]

New "(official)" WR for the oldest couple to solve the Rubik´s cube: Mr. and Mrs. Micheelsen from Denmark have solved the cube at a common age of 166 years, 7 months and 2 days, such beating the former record holders, Mr. and Mrs. Tomoyori from Japan by some 20 years!

 

[ben1996123]

Is this the shortest name?

Only person with a double X in their name

 

[Carrot]

Is this the shortest name?

Same length as this person

 

[Stefan]

Is this the shortest name?

Well, depends on how you define the length. These are all with five or fewer characters (space counting):

Ba Le
Ke Di
Le Le
Yi Su
Yu Du
Yu Lu
Yu Xu
Endah
Jufry

Only person with a double X in their name

If you like X, there's also Xixi Xu

Though... I'd say these are "arbitrary extreme names", not "odd stats" (what this thread was intended to be about).

 

[Rune]

Same length as this person

Li Li (and others).

Ninja´d

And, arguably more impressively, Egon's the oldest solver ever at 90 years old! Wow!

 

[Rune]

Who knows, who knows...?
"Actually there is another 97 years old player in Beijing,he lives in rest-home now.But I think he should not partcipate a competition,it may harm his health."

 

[qqwref]

Unofficial solves don't count, though. Oh well.

I find it rather amusing that the oldest 3x3 solver is nearly 30 years older than the oldest Magic solver. And if I got my dad to solve, he'd be something like 2nd. Rune, do you have any plans to learn some other events (Magics, clock, 2x2, pyraminx) just to be the oldest person to solve them?

 

[Rune]

Same length as this person

Oscar Roth Andersen is odder.

 

[Rune]

"You can´t learn old dogs new tricks". The mere idea of trying could lead to a stroke in brain or heart. Let me have only one aim; be the oldest to get an average on the 3x3! And hopfully, this will happen within the coming two years.

Yay that's my grandparents

 

[Rune]

Yay that's my grandparents

Great! Who learned whom?

 

[Anthony]

Top 8 in 5x5 average have all broken big cube WRs multiple times.

 

[MichaelP.]

Feliks's 4x4 BLD stats (bottom of the page) made me lol.

 

[Stefan]

Not odd, but a little statistic of the most looked up persons of the last two weeks or so:

4030 times Feliks Zemdegs
1062 times Rowe Hessler
878 times Erik Akkersdijk
775 times Vincent Sheu
675 times Yu Nakajima
488 times Heribertus Ariando
443 times Muhammad Iril Khairul Anam
356 times Cornelius Dieckmann
354 times Dan Cohen
343 times Morten Arborg

I found this podium interesting, for those that haven't seen the results from Bandung Open 2011: http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/node/1385

 

[qqwref]

Any good competition should have this guy handy.

Oh, and the BLD results were pretty close too (1:52, 1:55, 1:59) although nowhere near as close as the 3x3 ones.
