You remind me of someone I used to talk with in the Ingame Song Info thread back when the discussion there was still rather lively and the avmiss glitch was in full swing...I believe his name was Dronak. Even your avatars are similar.

In any case, welcome back! The reason spread is recommended is that it's a jack-of-all-trades style that lets you have a decent chance at doing well on a wide variety of files. Index and one-handed styles have more specific needs but tend to do better than spread at files that play to their strengths.
