I find the contest interesting. Never seen anything like it. It's a videogame decathlon (but with 12 games).

Game list:

Physical Challenges
1. 2D Shooting (Mushihime-sama)
2. 2D Fighting (Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st])
3. 3D Fighting (For Honor)
4. First-person Shooting (Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege)
5. Racing (Dirt Rally)
6. Sports (Steep)

Mental Challenges
1. Real-time Tactics (Planetary Annihilation: Titans)
2. Real-time Strategy (Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion)
3. Turn-based Strategy (Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword)
4. City-building (Factorio)
5. Simulation (IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad)
6. Survival (Rust)

The idea of the BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD comes from the definition of the decathlon:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decathlon

Traditionally, the title of "World's Greatest Athlete" has been given to the person who wins the decathlon, thus the world's greatest athlete of all times is the recordman of decathlon (Kevin Mayer as of September 2018). This began when King Gustav V of Sweden told Jim Thorpe, "You, sir, are the world's greatest athlete" after Thorpe won the decathlon at the Stockholm Olympics in 1912.

I haven't made anything anywhere and I resent your baseless accusations.

Whatever icy I could cut paste the word for word post you made above on other websites but I'd rather not interact with someone with your reputation. Happy to show the mods but won't be making anymore posts in this thread giving oxygen to the rather nasty individual who is behind that sham event.

I found the link on rllmulk, and when I was asked for more info I copy pasted the game list and the Wikipedia link. Are you new to the internet or something?

Your paranoia would be amusing to me if I had any clue what it's about.

Yup. The YT video only has what 200, 300 views? Pathetic attempt at promoting their own event via sexism.
