Realistically, can "normal" people become redcoder in their lifetime?
By tickbird, history, 4 months ago, In English

Since many people perceive normal differently here is my definition of normal people

  • median IQ
  • have not undergone intensive training when they were teenage this includes but not limited to (OI, IMO experience, went science & engineering affiliated boarding school or academy)
  • start cp after 18

has anyone ever seen single redcoder in cf who is normal? I know two redcoder irl, one at the middle school (graduate early & went science school) and one at Univ but but they were defiantly irregular.

With somewhat extensive training and forced to be consistent over multiple years, probably.

But on their own, I honestly doubt it. The "normal" cper in general is probably a lot stronger than the "normal" person at learning (using similar definitions), and only so many can be red.

Even I can't, despite not fitting all your predicates, so nobody can
