"Cubing Competitions Near Me" tool

Until yesterday, we could find the closest WCA competitions to our home (or any location and sorted by distance) with a tool on CubingApp.com. All we had to do was fill in the latitude and longitude.

Today I contact Spencer Chubb (the owner of the website) about this, and few hours later he had improved it: now we just have to fill in the field with a city!
It works perfectly and easier to use!

Thanks to Spencer to listen to suggestions, and congratulations to him on his responsiveness.
He's a very nice guy.

Where can I find Sum Of Ranks (SoR) WCA world ranking?

Yestherday, Luke Garrett became #1 in the world for Sum Of Ranks average. In his youtube video, we can see a SoR ranking web page.

Do you know which site is it from please?

Based on the screenshot, it reminds me of this website that also gives you end of year review of your WCA results. That one was a Chinese website that I can't remember right now (I originally found it shared on Reddit)

"Chinese" was a good clue! I found it.
Ranking is here: cubing.com/results/statistics/sum-of-ranks

Thank you @thisisdee :)

My nephew joined his first comp over the weekend and did really well! Second fastest newcomer in 3x3. Excited for future comps and for him to (very quickly) become faster than me.
