Sure. Especially at the level he is playing at, even a slight increase in winrate will pay for itself in a short amount of time.

At this point, I'm tempted to hire him, if only to say that I did and to write about the improved results and my impression of "Tommy's Tactics, Techniques, and Theories" (c)

If by "currently talking," you mean you declined even when I offered to give you odds and submit to a polygraph test (or other such test) confirming that I have no outside knowledge of your IQ, then yes, I guess we're "currently talking."

a) You never specifically named odds.

b) Polygraphs are unreliable. (For those that care, since he has decided to be ULTRA selective in his response, there is a real possibility that someone has contacted him that knows my specific IQ which would make his a stacked wager, as he wouldn't be going into the testing blind, as I would be about him.)

Regardless, I would've done the wager in a heartbeat, but in this situation, it may not be on the level, so it's not a gamble I'd take.

Truly, truly unreal. Just unreal. Have you even been reading Diablo's posts for the last 4-5 years? Even with no other information than these posts, I would make an even-money bet for $5k (plenty of money to me) that Diablo's IQ is 4-sigma.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

If an IQ test can't happen, how about a steel cage match?
