Sweet, I was hoping there was a way to make up for my skinny stature.

Try moving in circles.

Anyway, my theory is that we all start out with some small amount of points the first time out. Depending on the things you do during a lifetime you earn more starting points for the next round.

What happens when you reach 1,000? Reset back to zero? That would suck.

No, I think the #1 person on the planet is at 1000 and the worst is 1. Then we are all ranked based on this and everyone else. Only a few can be so high, if they improve it just distorts the graph. Maybe everyone is always improving and so is our standard of living. That's why we no longer live in caves.

Penis size is just a novelty used to trick people into wasting necessary points. It's kind of like a luxury for those who already have a lot of points.

Some people waste their precious points on this because they believe it is worth more than it is. I understand that it is very beneficial, it's just expensive pointwise.

Does the distribution follow a bell curve?

The theory isn't fully developed. I have just used it on more of a gut feeling sort of way, which has become highly evolved. I haven't broken it down into actual categories, and I haven't really assigned numbers to certain things.

I do like these categories:

Looks
Brain Power
Athletisism
Social Ablility

With maybe 250 pts available in each category.

I am just stupid enough to give the first serious answer. I think I started with about 800 points (which I would consider above average). I would break down my scores as follows:

Looks - 180 points (72nd %ile, above average, but not stunningly handsome)
Brain Power - 242 points (97th %ile, my IQ is in the 130-135 range)
Athleticism - 175 points (70th %ile, I think I am a better athelete than 70% of the worlds population, but nothing concrete to quantify this assertion)
Social Ability - 203 points (82nd %ile, I have always been very socially adept)

These scores are of course subjective, and some may think this is bragging (it may be, I have always held a high opinion of myself).

However, in the game of life, I have always considered myself very lucky, and fortunate to have the "gifts" I have been given.

I assumed a bell curve for my self analysis.

I don't know if it is a bell curve, but that seems most likely.

One thing that people never have a good handle on is what the avg person is actually like. Just by being able to log onto this forum and discuss anything probably puts you above average.

Most of the people I know are college students or have college degrees. They forget about the throngs of inner city and rural redneck hump a bumpkin people that are out there.

They usually compare themselves to their peers which as a whole group are above average.

I do like to remove the bums from the curve and only compare myself to my peers though, that usually keeps my sharp and focused on improving myself.
