Could you do an all-time managers table? I would be very interested in seeing which managers performed best overal (with which countries) and comparing that to the overal countries table.

That's pretty hard to do, but I can promise the most successful ones ONLY. Say, top five.
Btw if you think some of the users are one same person, just let me know. Due to nickname change or for whatever reason...

I didn't know this is a Dutch place. iCM is Dutch, but this forum isn't, although there are a significant amount of Dutch people here. I'm not particularly fond of Dutch cinema, at least no more or less than other minor countries, so I don't see the need for a wild card.
