I've been a developer for more than five years now, and I met a lot of brillant people that are more than a 100 times better than me. I also saw code and people that are so bad that I would qualify as a A player... Compared to them. I'm probably more than a 100 times better than them. So in my opinion, in software development, there is a much wider range than 100:1, and if you feel like you're an 'A' player, you're probably overestimating yourself. Likewise, if you feel you're a 'C' player and are worried about it, don't worry too much, go on StackOverflow, answer question, learn to get better, and be confident that maybe you're not an 'A' player, but you're pretty good and will be a 100 times better by next year.
