The number of "highly skilled" players on the forums put me in mind of some interesting research summarised in http://arstechnica.c...theyre-awesome/ . Which got me thinking about illusory superiority (the thing where people will tend to assess themselves as slightly above average at any skilled task, despite any and all evidence http://en.wikipedia....ory_superiority ).
Thus, this poll. I am aware that there is a selection bias by putting this on the forum but I'm not interested in serious socialogical research.
I'm going to rate myself as slightly below average. That might be partially wishful thinking, I'm certainly a resident of the Steering-wheel Underhive but I like to think I'm one of the better underhivers.
Discuss.
tl;dr I'm totally awesome at this game, it's you idiots who keep fscking it up and making me lose.
