Is it efficiency? Is it the speed they make the scripts? Is it the types of scripts they can make?
What do you think? |

| You need to know what a metatable is and how to use it. |

Well, a metatable is sort of where you store other tables or something...
I looked it up on the wiki and found it quite confusing O.o
I'll look again soon. |

| It is the knowledge of knowing everything about that language. The ways do things efficient, the things to make it look nice ( the code), the things to shorten the code with the same effect...and of course the knowledge of the language! |

Probably the ability to do something correct, efficiently, and better then anyone else.
Just the description of anything 'good' in general. |

| One thing I have a habit of (OCPD? (Google it)) is ALWAYS saying game.Workspace instead of Workspace. I tab, etc, but I always add that possibly useless 5 letters... |

| I think good just means you understand it...not really that you can make a script. |

The ability to solve problems. There is no point knowing everything if you can only do nothing.
People in the past have said that certain programs are impossible to make, but now we look back at them with sorrow! We have done the impossible.

| You need 2 things to fix problems. Knowledge and Immagination. Though, immagination is more important than knowledge. |

OCPD = Obssesive Complusive Personality Disorder.
The difference between OCD and OCPD is that OCPD means you think your thoughts are correct (I do :3) and OCD is unwanted thoughts (I don't get :3) |

| The games part isn't to do with it. Good scripters CAN make good games, but it's not really a factor to describing one. |

Actually, some persons seem to confuse efficientness and speed.
Something efficient isn't necessarily only faster than something else. Efficientness is more than just speed.
Anyways, 'Workspace' is both shorter and faster than 'game.Workspace'. |

Good scripts make you a good scripter. A good script is one that does what it's supposed to adequately quickly ("adequately" is the operative word). It doesn't really matter how you get to good scripts, you just need to somehow. Traits that make this more likely are: Perseverance Technical Knowledge of the Programming Environment Knowledge of Computer Science The Ability to Collaborate Asking for Help An Original Vision |

"You need to know what a metatable is and how to use it."
A metatable is a table within another table that controls the table it's inside.
Table count: three, four including the word table inside of metatable.
