A large part of becoming better at this game is reaching the understanding that parses are an extremely flawed indicator of player value, and that even extremely inconsistent players can decorate their page with 99s if they're willing to grind hard enough for the one run that goes their way. It's unfortunate that the community has become so invested in this singular metric. I guess it's a matter of convenience really, since it doesn't take a nuanced understanding to associate big number = good.
