Biggest Brain on CW

So who is the most intelligent person on CW?

Is it that science/maths geek SS or Mr Z the guy with the massive brain. Or do you consider an outsider like Smali with his extremely clever Smiley's as the numero uno. Let us hear your voice so that we may know your choice.

Well I think we can rule out AN straight away.

People often confuse knowledge and maturity with intelligence.

Fred or Mr z have to be there or thereabouts, but it's a calumny on Pickup I'm an option and he isn't.

Brain the size of a planet, that one.

I completely forgot him. I guess he doesn't post that often anymore.

Will go for the irrelevant option as I can't choose between the rest.

This is certainly true. Knowledge is not intelligence. I have more knowledge than my sister in physics, math, history, general knowledge, etc but I think she's smarter than I am.

With that said, I don't even quite know what intelligence is. The IQ tests say one thing, but I don't think they are measuring what they think they're measuring.

Of the people I've spoken with on here, PhoenixFire is a very bright kid (well not a kid anymore I suppose), and Spark is as well. Both very fun to talk to.

Another guy who I missed out (and apologies to him) is Hurricane. Always find his contributions on Cricket Chat to be very valuable and engaging. A Smart fellow who always challenges the status quo.

Also missed out on Fusion. A very clever guy.

What are we deciding based on? Cricketing knowledge, General Knowledge, General Intelligence or Application of that Intelligence & Knowledge into sports concepts ?

Well, that's hard to know combined out of just CW posting tbh. Will pick the irrelevant option(Flem).

Gonna have to agree with Cevno - there is no way of knowing who the most intelligent person is based on their posting.
