i made a little script a short while ago that shows "percentage of AAA on files by people of X range of capability"



each horizontal line here is a different chart, and each vertical line is "a slice of users with completed scores on the chart, who are within five levels of the bar's column number" - so theres a column for "percentage of AAAs among users who are level 5-15, 6-16, 7-17, 8-18, 9-19 and so on" ...

the pink bar shows the percentage of "people with user levels +/- 5 of the chart's rated difficulty". this means that already abt 40% of players at level ~65-75 already have a AAA on this file... and in almost every other case for files around this difficulty that rate is less than 10%! or often less than 5%

excite bike (heavy)'s profile is particularly out of place, not only is it more suited to the mid-50s, but you don't actually see a profile consistently like this until files in the late-40s... (it could just be downstream of how difficult it is to unlock, so that "very dedicated people" are the scorers on it. but its out of place even among skill token files!)
