Official sub-10 solves

[Olivér Perge]

Now, that we have all sub-10 solves in the top100 single ranking, I wanted to know who has the most of them.

Here is the top10 list:

1. 71 - Erik Akkersdijk (Netherlands) - 62 competitions: 1,15/competition, 839 solves: 8.46%

1. 71 - Feliks Zemdegs (Australia) - 8 competitions: 8,88/competition, 105 solves: 67.62%

3. 69 - Tomasz Zolnowski (Poland) - 38 competitions: 1,86/competition, 545 solves: 13.02%

4. 47 - Rowe Hessler (USA) - 35 competitions: 1,31/competition, 489 solves: 9.33%

5. 40 - Kanneti Sae Han (France) - 24 competitions: 1,67/competition, 340 solves: 11.76%

6. 34 - Yumu Tabuchi (Japan) - 19 competitions: 1,79/competition, 223 solves: 15.25%

7. 33 - Breandan Vallance (United Kingdom) - 15 competitions: 2,20/competition, 310 solves: 10.65%

7. 33 - Mats Valk (Netherlands) - 33 competitions: 1,00/competition, 435 solves: 7.59%

9. 22 - Cornelius Dieckmann (Germany) - 11 competitions: 2,00/competition, 150 solves: 14.69%

10. 20 - Piti Pichedpan (Thailand) - 13 competitions: 1.62/competition, 180 solves: 11.67%


Sub-9 list:

1. 43 Feliks Zemdegs (Australia)

2. 17 Tomasz Zolnowski (Poland)

3. 14 Erik Akkersdijk (Netherlands)

4. 13 Rowe Hessler (USA)

5. 11 Kanneti Sae Han (France)

6. 10 Yumu Tabuchi (Japan)

7. 8 Cornelius Dieckmann (Germany)

7. 8 Mats Valk (Netherlands)

8. 6 Breandan Vallance (United Kingdom)

9. 5 Piti Pichedpan (Thailand)


And many, many others with 2 sub-9 solves.

The sub-8 list:

1. 16 Feliks Zemdegs (Australia)

2. 3 Erik Akkersdijk (Netherlands)

2. 3 Rowe Hessler (USA)

4. 2 Cornelius Dieckmann (Germany)

The rest has 1 official sub-8 solve.

And the sub-7 list:

1. 2 Feliks Zemdegs (Australia)

1. 1 Rowe Hessler (USA)

I am terribly sorry if I left out someone or counted something wrong. Do you think it would be cool to have a list, that counted sub10s on the official WCA statics page? I would really love to see one. (Maybe later for the averages too.)

Morten Arborg 1 -->0,5/comp

 

[Faz]

My NZ09 results should be deleted

 

[Olivér Perge]

I edited the list. All the top10 sub10 cubers have at least 10 sub10 solves now.

(Giovanni Contradi joined the list, Dan Cohen, Milán Baticz and Eric Limeback left the list.)

 

[AvGalen]

Awesome list Oliver. I had no idea that sub 10 was so common now.
Also, Netherlands are the only country that have 2 people (Erik, Mats)

That would be awesome.

Haha, also maybe it could be ranked by percentage? Or sub10/competition.

It's only a matter of time anyway... Give him 2-3 more competitions and he will take the lead.

I wasn't saying that about Faz, but I believe that's more of an indication. Also, could the scoring start from the competition they first got a sub 10 at? That makes more sense to me, because that's the perc. that they achieve sub 10 per comp. Erik had 9 comps before he got his first official sub 10, so that doesn't seem a good indication of how often he achieves them, because he's different now. This would be quite a bit more work though

I don't think that's a good idea. That would give an advantage for the competitors who got their first sub10 later, which doesn't make any sense, since for example a sub10 from 2008 is a lot better than a sub10 in 2010 in my opinion. (Let's take Erik's 7.08. It was an extremely good 3x3x3 time in 2008, nowadays many cubers get sub7 solves every week, a few of them even daily.) Plus the percentage thing doesn't really work if we start from the first sub10, does it?

My idea was to get a sub10 counter, the other statics are just side notes to let them be comparable for everyone.

That's a variable that we cannot measure, I think. Unless you tell me how is Erik (and of course every other cubers) different, which way he changed and with what values.

 

[RCTACameron]

58%. And it will only keep going up. In percentage, Faz wins by far. :tu

 

[KboyForeverB]

lol faz

I was gonna post the exact same post but I saw this. WHATEVA DENE SAID!11

 

[Olivér Perge]

Edited the list again.

After Euro, all of the europeans got more sub10s, and Rowe got 5 more this weekend too. Let's what happens after Asian Championship 2010!

Major changes: Breandan stepped up to the 5th place.

 

[joey]

Just want to point out, I have 3.

That's the "Joey's popularity/talent paradox" again.

For one thing, everyone knows you, mostly likes you, so we do care about your results, while on the other hand, 3 is a low number in this competition.

 

[Olivér Perge]

Edited, after Asian Championship. No one moved on the list, however Feliks is getting closer to Erik.

 

[irontwig]

Top-100 single results are now sub-9!

Top-100 single results are now sub-9!

I was gonna say "WHAT, that only went sub10 a little while ago?!" then realised you said results not people

 

[Ranzha]

Just wait until the title is changed to say "Official sub-7 solves".
