cool. my daughter is left handed too. and i'm some sort of left handed person as i do most of my stuff with the right hand but some tasks i can only perform with the left. for example smoking. i smoked for almost 15 years and always with my left hand.
anyway back on topic.

This list, while it might not be a good measure of subjective intelligence,
it is a list that clearly does show who the BEST PLAYERS are under 30 (based on scoreboard results)
i'm not talking about measuring intelligence, i'm talking about importance and arbitrary criteria.
having a winning percentage under 30 coupled with a high score means nothing more than the fact that you have lots of points and you're not winning a lot.
it doesn't make you a great 6p games player or a team player or a 1v1 player.
there are many different ways of getting a 2500+ score while keeping your win% bellow 30.
furthermore the criteria of choosing people with 20 something win percentages excludes players that could potentially be more valuable.
for example player A sticks only to 6p games and gets 3000 points with a win percentage of 25. which is pretty neat.
but what about player B that plays only 6p games just like player A but has a win percentage of 31? he also has 4000 points. so he has more points, wins more often and plays the same thing as player A so he's better. yet he's not in the top.
or what about player C who plays just 8p games and has 19% win percentage? he doesn't get in the top cause he's not a 20 something
so you see what i mean? the win percentage does not restrict the player selection to a certain type and it doesn't make a player better or worse. having a 24 something win percentage is just as arbitrary as having received 100+ ratings or having a name that contains the letter Z.
now if you could compile a true top of people that play exclusively 8p or 6p or escalators or whatever, then that would be awsome.
