First-party speedcubing evidence
Research built from real solves, not repeated advice
SupaKewber converts anonymised aggregate practice, trainer, connection and tournament records into stable public datasets. Official WCA competition analysis runs in a separate, attributed pipeline.
SupaKewber datasets
Practice behavior only a smart-cube platform can observe
Every page includes sample size, date range, definitions, inclusion rules, exclusions, methodology, update date and stable CSV/JSON downloads.
CFOP stage percentages by skill level
Smart-cube stage timestamps turn a general training rule into an observed benchmark for distinct skill brackets.
Open research page →How many turns per second do speedcubers average?Typical TPS by solve-time bracket
Move-aware solves show how turning rate and move count vary across real solve-time bands.
Open research page →Which OLL and PLL cases fail most often in training?Most commonly failed OLL and PLL cases
Trainer outcomes reveal which cases create persistent recognition or execution mistakes instead of relying on anecdotal difficulty lists.
Open research page →How much algorithm time is recognition versus execution?Recognition time versus execution time
Separated trainer phases reveal whether identifying a case or turning it is the larger part of the delay.
Open research page →How long do speedcubers pause between CFOP stages?Average pauses between CFOP stages
Move timestamps around detected stage boundaries quantify the transitions that a stopwatch total hides.
Open research page →Which algorithms do SupaKewber users practise most?Most practised speedcubing algorithms
Aggregate attempt volume shows which cases attract the most deliberate work across the training community.
Open research page →Which browsers and smart-cube families connect most reliably?Smart-cube connection success by browser and device
Coarse anonymous outcomes reveal where browser-based Bluetooth succeeds and where setup still creates friction.
Open research page →Why do browser smart-cube connections fail?Most common Bluetooth smart-cube connection errors
Validated error buckets show whether unavailable APIs, permissions, GATT state or initialization failures dominate.
Open research page →How much do cubers improve after hundreds of recorded solves?Improvement after 100, 500 and 1,000 solves
Milestone cohorts connect sustained practice volume to the change in a player’s own rolling performance.
Open research page →How do manual and smart-cube practice times compare?Manual versus smart-cube timing
Immutable timer-source labels make it possible to describe two timing populations without mixing them into one average.
Open research page →How many solves do speedcubers practise per active day?Average daily speedcubing practice volume
User-day totals describe the practice dose people actually record when they open a session.
Open research page →How often do online tournament entrants complete their solve set?Online tournament participation and completion rates
Entry and submission records reveal which event windows turn interest into a completed competitive average.
Open research page →Official competition analysis
WCA results, labeled and attributed separately
These pages are derived from the official WCA public results export and carry its publication date, format version and required attribution.
Average official 3×3 times by country
The analysis groups each competitor’s official 3×3 personal-best average by the country on their primary WCA person record.
Open research page →How have official 3×3 single and average world records progressed?3×3 speedcubing world-record progression
The series filters event-333 result rows carrying the WCA world-record marker and joins official competition dates and competitor records.
Open research page →Which countries have the deepest competitive 3×3 field?Countries with the deepest official 3×3 field
Field depth is described with recent active competitors, official sub-10 and sub-15 PB averages, and global top-100 representation.
Open research page →Can public WCA data show speedcubing performance by age?Age and speedcubing performance
The page documents why this analysis is not computed from the public export: dates of birth are deliberately excluded.
Open research page →How many competitors have achieved an official sub-10 3×3 average?Official sub-10 speedcubers over time
A competitor enters the series in the year of their first positive official 3×3 average below 10.00 seconds.
Open research page →Living publication
No minimum sample, no headline.
A dataset below its threshold stays public at its permanent URL with its method and “collecting” status, but no estimate is manufactured to fill the table.
