Cannot be something that is mostly subjective. For example, claiming you draw better than 99.9966% of the population would not count because art is mostly subjective. But if you're a famous painter and your artwork regularly goes for 6 digits then it would count. If you play in the NBA then you can claim that your better than most people in basketball.

Cannot be vague. For example you can't say I'm one of the best video game player in the United States. It has to be specific like I'm godly at warcraft 3 and you have a web link to the ladder rankings to prove it.
Almost that. My IQ is 151, so statistically, my logical thinking and association abilities should be better than 99.966% of the population.

160 would be 99.9966 percentile.

I don't like talking about mine, because I don't have anthing to show for it, but I know it's at least 140, and my doctor made some kind of remark about it being higher than that, but he could have been being sarcastic or otherwise facetious. But I seriously doubt it's 160+.

Red Orchestra: Ostfront (computer game).
Trackmania: Nations (computer game) - ranked top 20k in the worl, I would assume less than 50% of those ahead of me are from the US, since most players seem to be European.

I just tested myself. 4:36. I win.

You just wait for tonight.

Now, are we measuring from the start or the end of #1? I need to know which metric to use.

I'm better than 99.9966% of the US population at geography, actually. I'm in the top 100 in the nation. Fun stuff. Also, someone pointed that an IQ of 160 or better is a 99.9966% range IQ. My IQ was supposedly 158 by a real IQ test a couple of years ago. Now it has probably surpassed that.

Start of session to the end of the second. No warm ups either!

Probably write Sutterlinschrift, a German handwriting that ceased being taught anywhere in about 1941. I doubt even 10,000 people in America know it.
