Any of you seen it? dakwahgandist The Museum Of Kopitiam Sun, 25 Dec 2011 22:51:25 +0800 http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2142494 Sup dudes, have you guys heard that recently a team of researchers from MIT have discovered a formula to actually quantify the level of skill a person has in Starcraft II? I know, sounds too awesome to be true right? Well it sort of goes like this:<br /><br /><!--QuoteBegin--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->- Pick a number between 1 to 9 that you feel best relates to your skill.<br /><br />- Multiply that number by 3<br /><br />- Take the result and add 3 to it.<br /><br />- Then multiply by 3 again.<br /><br />- By now you&#39;ll probably have a 2-digit number. Add those 2 digits together to get 1-digit number.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />Are you guys done? Great&#33; Now take the number you got after all that math and compare it to the level of skill below:<br /><br /><!--QuoteBegin--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->1 - 2 : Professional Level - Aww yeah dude you&#39;re Pro League material&#33; Better pack your stuff and move to Korea, who knows maybe you&#39;ll be the next MVP, IdrA, or Huk&#33;<br /><br />3 - 4 : Masters, High Diamond - Doing great there, dude&#33; You&#39;re not exactly pro material yet, but if you keep practicing your micro/macro and timings, you just might have a chance to go pro one day&#33;<br /><br />5 - 6 : Diamond, Platinum - Congrats dude, you&#39;re among the top 10% of players who are adept and actually know how to play the game competently at a competitive level.<br /><br />7 - 8 : Gold, Silver - You&#39;re a casual player who might have trouble understanding a few basics. But just because you&#39;re in gold or silver doesn&#39;t mean you can&#39;t improve. With enough effort, you&#39;ll step up the ladder for sure&#33;<br /><br />9 - Noob Bronzer - You have absolutely no skill, you cant even micro or macro properly, your APM barely reaches 20, and your strats and unit compositions suck, so stop whining in the forums about race imbalances and cry nerfs and buffs.<br /><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />So have you guys check it out? Yeah, I too didn&#39;t believe it at first, but then I tried the math and got 5, which is true since I&#39;m a Diamond player&#33; What about you guys, what number did you guys got? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--><br /><br /> dakwahgandist StarCraft Fri, 09 Dec 2011 19:31:57 +0800
