    The average human has an IQ of 100. I estimate mine to be around 70.

    I have often wondered, how do people of the highest intellects actually think? How fast do they think? Do they have super memories or something?

    I happened to chance upon a player in PA who claims that he is Evangelos Katsioulis, and I was like ah okay, who is that? I copied the name down and after the game, I googled him up and found out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelos_Katsioulis

    "Katsioulis' performance is expected by only 1 person out of 38,000,000,000 of the unselected population."

    :eek:

    Wow! An IQ of 38,000,000,000??? My god! Nearly a billion times mine!

    I am just curious. How do people with such astronomical IQs actually think?

    ......

    Anyway, just for fun, I googled the following people that were provided in the google links to that Evangelos guy:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_G._Rosner

    " A score of 160 corresponds to a rarity of about 1 person in 30,000 (leaving aside the issue of error of measurement common to all IQ tests), which falls short of the Mega Society's 1 in a million requirement"

    1 million IQ ... good lord. Not as high as that 38 billion IQ guy above, but still very godly.

    Then there is this one here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marilyn_vos_Savant with 228 IQ

    228 IQ may not be as high as the other 2, but hey, that is still very good.

    Then there is this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Langan

    210, still cool.

    Dude. That doesn't mean his IQ is 38,000,000,000. The article you LINK even says it's a "mere" 205.

    If you're going to post threads with such wildly ridiculous claims, at least READ what you're researching.

    I hate the concept of IQ. People don't think linearly, logarithmically, hyperbolically, or along a bell curve.

    Sticking a number on the way people think is just flawed. And you can totally study for an IQ test. It's not hard, and I know you're not supposed to, but you can. Rather easily.

    Not only that, but IQ tests don't even agree to use the same standard deviations or measurements. So the number only matters if you also cite the test taken. You can have "focused intelligence" and do well on one test or "general intelligence" and do better on another.

    Now those outlandish ridiculous people are all probably really smart, but any IQ within a couple standard deviations is gonna be completely without any significance beyond "you're average."

    I know most of this doesn't need pointed out, but IQ existing is one of my pet peeves.

    IQ is a silly concept. We don't even fully understand human intelligence and yet people want to quantify it?

    It's a meaningless number for arrogant academics.

    You really need to read better. It says IQ of 205, and he's one out of 38 billion. One does not equal the other. This may be offtopic, but I'm starting to wonder if you're for real, or simply trolling. I'm leaning toward trolling. Which.. check the rules. Off topic is not exempt. :p

    He's trolling. He used to go on the steam forum starting threads that seem legitimate and then later changing the titles, which he has done a couple times here too. Some of the steam threads had a similar focus on IQ.

    incompetent, trolling, does it matter, what matters is he is not hurting anyone and if anyone is hurt by this then they deservs to be hurt by it, i mean he is really really into this, no matter if he is trolling or not, even if he is loling hes head off he is super into this and enjoying this super much. So why cant he even tho it is imo. But most talk of space is imo. Maybe its like this ( okay read the facts, but i don`t believe its like that, but more like this, and facts of space never gives you enught knowledge anyway. hes haveing the time of hes life. And no matter how you look at it this is candy for him

    :O

    I had you pinned for a logical positivist/materialist/nominalist, and here you are talking about the sovereignty of qualities from quantities!
