For those with jack squat accomplished in life, being a good joystick manipulator just might be the best thing they'll ever do.
BTW gaming doesn't require "skill", just practice.. any numbnut kid can become an AH ace, try brain surgery, earning a professional certificate or accomplishing something most others cant... like geting a job that washes out 97% of applicants.
actually, i would say that you do require a certain natural ability to think ahead, and multitask to dogfight well.
I'd put money on the 'aces' having a slightly higher IQ and such on average than some of the other players.
afterall, there are some guys here that play hundreds of hours and suck, while there are guys that play under 10 hours a month, haven't been around all that long, that are great sticks.
it's not entirely practise i'd say
although, looking at megadud and ball might disprove my theory. They're good sticks but they're both darn stupid
