I agree with NixXSkate. Playcount and stuff could be good information to take into account, but for that you'd need to remove of the playcount (for instance) all of the plays that did not have the endeavor to make you better. Look at me for instance, I have 34k playcount, yet, I spend what, a fifth of my play time playing easy maps to take breaks from tryharding. A fifth of 34k would be 6800, which is a lot of difference. Now, let's imagine that I've been playing for much more time and that I have 200.000 playcount, and that I would always have played easy maps. A fifth of it would be 40k playcount, which is a big lot.
On the other hand, I've noticed that people that play less than me (like, maybe twice or thrice a week, while I'm playing six days out of seven) improve faster playcount-wise, but slower time-wise (one of my friends, for instance, has 2600pp, when I had as much as him, my playcount was twice as high, yet, I went to this amount of pp way faster than he did, he attained this amount in one year and a half while I atteined it in just one year).
Besides, retrying makes a lot of difference playcount wise, as it increases a lot faster, while the total hits doesn't increase as fast.
Railey, let's take you and I as exemple, if you go to my profile, you'll notice that we begun playing (or at least created our accounts) the exact same day.
In those 21 months, my playcount went all the way up to 34k. Yours is 41.5k. Yet I have 110 hours of playcount more than you. I also have half as much total hits as you. My max combo is 3670 while your is 1330.
For all of this I get to the conclusion that you retry a lot more than I do (and I did retry a lot before deciding to get consistent, if I had never retried, maybe I would be at around 25k playcount or something like that).
If we take only playcount and total hits into account, it would seem like you have more talent than me, but if you take into account that a big part of my total hits comes from not retrying, and that another significant part of them comes from playing piss easy maps, we can't say which one of us is the most talented. Or at least I cannot, and I probably couldn't even though if I knew if you were not retrying like me or playing maps just for fun and not for improvement like I do.
I think that playcount, total hits, and play time are influenced by too much variables to discern them from one another, which would make any judgment based on them dubious.
Also, but this is 'total' intuition from my part (which means that it's totally up to you to believe any of it), I looked at your profile and I think that you tend be pessimistic, which could lead you to think that certains things that look impossible indeed are, while they not necessarily are.
