Odd WCA stats/ Stats request Thread

[lachose]

Guillaume Erbibou did 2:58.33 on 2 consecutive 5x5 solves at France 2011.

 

[Stefan]

Has anyone else ever had the same time on three consecutive official solves in a non-stupid (magic) event?

Zi-Jie Gong in 3x3x3: 21.34 24.86 20.90 20.90 20.90
(that's the only one, though I last updated my testing database 1-2 weeks ago)

If we don't count those who are world champion for DNFing then Dror only has two and Mr. Pochmann only has 3.

Yeah I was quite surprised when I saw "4" for me at first. I'd say don't count it here, on the WCA site I think we mostly list it under "Winners" because we want to list all events.

Hey what is the highest number anyone has in their WCA ID? I'm talking about this part of the ID. 2011NOOB01

 

[irontwig]

At least 67: http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2010CHEN67

 

[Evan Liu]

Likely this guy (85):

[Sebastien]

wow...I was seriously expecting something like 08 :S

 

[Stefan]

Yes, 85 is highest. A while back we had a discussion what to do when we reach 100, but then in 2010 we "only" got up to 80 and this year we're at 55 so far. Always the Wangs...

Top 10 ID middles:

I'm ranked 666th nationally:

Oh, and I'm born on 6/6/96 and I'm watching the Omen right now.

Not 3 times consecutive but I got this avg. on 2x2 at Castelbelforte Cube Battle 2011
4.16, 4.16, 4.31, (4.31), (4.11) = 4.21

Triple beats two pairs. I like poker.

Anybody got quads or a straight?

 

[qqwref]

I have a flush - I solved the same puzzle 5 times in a row

 

[Stefan]

Anybody got quads or a straight?

Quads only in magic:
Baramee Pookcharoen (บารมี พุกเจริญ)
1.25, 1.27, 1.25, 1.25, 1.25

No straight, though it's unlikely by itself and made rather impossible by the stackmat malfunction (not being able to measure all times). Here's a non-magic one that gets close:
Michael, 3x3x3: 25.06, 25.03, 25.03, 25.05, 25.03
He did that on purpose, though, he's usually ten seconds faster.

And a magic one that gets closer:
Chau Ka Wai (周嘉偉)
0.94, 0.94, 0.90, 0.93, 0.91
If only one 0.94 were a 0.92

The only full house:
Yang Liu 2 (刘洋), magic: 1.02, 0.96, 1.02, 1.02, 0.96

Thanks for the answer. It seems like you know everything :S

Haha, me too. 85 is a lot!

Wait, what does it mean?

Edit: I'll assume it means that someone has the same 4 letter id code as you (mine being LECH) AND joined the same year. Therefore, to avoid the same ID, you have the number on the right.

That needs to be a band name!

 

[antoineccantin]

Not really a stat but:

higher national ranking the world ranking.

 

[Kian]

Not really a stat but:

higher national ranking the world ranking.

That's what happens when you change your nationality in the database.

 

[Jaycee]

Not really an odd stat, but :

According to http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/persons.php?eventId=&regionId=&pattern=Cow&search=Search , Once I go to my first comp, I'll be one of 2 people in the WCA database that has the string of letters "Cow" in their name. (My last name begins with Cow)

Plus the other guy has only competed in one event.... in 2008.
