This question is aimed at those higher ranked players at Level 25+ @ Isotropic.

My question is if you were forced to restart right now at level 0 (for w/e reason) how long would it take you to get to your current level? Would it be faster or slower or just about the same pace? Why? How long would it be in relation to your original pace at climbing the levels?
edit: Ok, from now on state how much you might play too please. (I doubt anyone will play 24/7)

Faster in every case, because the skill system does a pretty good job of showing your current skill level. If I start a new account tomorrow, that doesn't mean I'll forget anything I've learned, so I''ll climb to about where I'm at in... maybe a week or two, depending on how much I play.

I started a second account to goof around with, experiment, play weird strategies, etc.  Within a week it was basically at the level my 'real' account was at.

Assuming you have improved since you started, the much higher variance of the new account will be balanced by a higher estimate of true skill level.

I did this not too long ago. To get to the same mean skill I was took about 300 games. Variance was much higher though so the level was lower.

I had also said 1 or 2 weeks when you play much.

When I started my 2nd account I think I got to the high 30s (where I normally sit) in a couple hundred games.
