there is simply too large a differential between spread/4key potential, far beyond the differential between index/spread, even if the analogous progression is justified

not to mention that "legit" is community driven more than anything else, even if site admins came out and said "double setup is now officially a supported playstyle" players themselves would disregard any notable scores obtained in such way and ds players would be de facto segregated into comparing their scores with each other

anyway for all we know there are hundreds of double setup players already playing on ffr they just all suck dick

If we just include DS as an acceptable playstyle it probably wouldn't mean anything substantial to the community you're right there. And there probably are plenty of DS players out there that suck. But I really don't see someone coming out of nowhere though and saying here's a DS AAA on rato. If we allowed it I'm sure people could appreciate the progression that player is going through. But then again we're both speaking for the community. In reality there would be mixed feelings about DS scores, but IMO if they're really opting for that playstyle and show progression using it, that would be pretty cool. If they eventually top the leader boards they probably deserve it.
