I'd like to see people who have a financial stake at being good at games over 5+ years compared.
Even then it's hard. For example, one pro-gamer hasn't been winning as much as his prime, but he's said he hasn't been practicing as hard (his teammate just won the championship in Korea, and he definitely practiced hard).
Of course, we can't necessarily trust his self-assessment, but it shows that even people who have a financial interest can get burned out and lose interest in the game.
that these measure brain decline since RTS is a game with the worst interface. i.e. it measures your ability to keep up with a poor interface.
How would you improve the interface? I'm not sure there's any way of handling 60 different units easily....
No politics, no being just a cog in a machine, no project management, no BS. Just me and code, giving people what they needed and making their jobs easier.
Oh yeah, that's exactly what I look for in a job.
Also with their lobbying shenanigans and attempts to keep the tax code complicated
This is exactly why I refuse to give them any of my money. I do it by hand, every year. Bonus I get to annoy IRS agents by making them read hand-written forms.
After a number of decimal places, nobody gives a damn.
