The
categories we determined upon are as folows:
Dominance
in Field;
Active
Longevity;
Polymathy
and Versatility;
Strength
and Energy; IQ;
On-Going
Influence;
Prolificness
and Achievement of Prime Goal. |
In
each of these categories we have awarded a range of 0 to 100 points, where even
a 0, because it is a ranking relating specifically to the 100 Top Geniuses, would
indicate, in relation to everyone else, a very high score. |
We
established three further bonus categories, namely Universality of Vision (bonus
of 15), Outstanding originality (bonus of 10) and a deliberate desire to create
Teaching Avenues or Academies to further the genius's ideas (bonus of 10). The
grand total available is a maximum of 835 possible points.
The
Active Longevity category required special attention. Those geniuses who managed
their personal physiques to the maximum to ensure the widest possible time span
for the accomplishment of their life's visions deserved extra credit.
However,
so as not to overweight this category, we established this scale: a range of 16
points from youngest to eldest rewards those who 'hung in' and does not penalise
those who died early; on our chart, death between the ages of 33 and 36 scores
84/100, death between the ages of 57 and 60 scores 90.
