the poll is fundamentally flawed. there is a HUGE difference between being the type not to back down from a fight underway, and the type to go looking for them, yet both get the same result.
Most important thing I've learned from D&D?
No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.
I'm pretty sure that most of the online "what ____ are you?" quizzes are flawed in some way.
According to a recent episode of Adam Ruins Everything, attempting to categorize someone's personality into defined classes is an exercise in futility anyway. Still a fun game, though.

*Sin counter dings* Cheesy opening narration made even cheesier by by a forth wall joke at the movie's expense.

I personally feel like my own personality is too complex for Myers-Briggs analysis. I like the whole Choleric-Melancholic-Sanguine-Phlegmatic four humors personality test better. I'm a Melancholic-Phlegmatic in real life.
Myers-Briggs has its limitations but it's very commonly used in various institutions. I've taken it four times and scored consistently until the last time, over a decade ago. Still, they're kinda fun and can be illuminating. You do need more questions and snarky is not that "scientific".

I wasn't the one who created the quiz, I just found it through deviantArt.
Anyway, as I said, I think my personality is too complex for Myers-Briggs. I know I'm a total introvert but the other three factors seem to change depending on my mood and are interchangeable. I consider myself to be an IXXX.
yeah, biggest problem with M-B is the fact that the categories all assume an "A or B" response, lacking a neutral option or variances.

True, not much nuance with M-B and, like the majority of personality inventories, it assumes that once the basic structures of a personality emerge, they calcify and remain as unmoveable as the fixed stars of the social horoscopes.

I recently took a Myers Briggs quiz and got this result:
Interesting, CanzetYote. The changes in your score might reflect growth since your big school age, since adolescence is a pretty turbulent time in personality development. The MB folks have mixed responses to that idea since most of them believed personality foundations are fixed for life. A change from N (intuitive) to S (Sensory ... If I remember) may be kinda drastic unless your readings were very close. For example, I was also INTJ, but my T (Thinking) and F (Feeling) scores were only a point or two apart. Ten years ago, last time I tested, I'd become an INFJ pretty decisively ... But had also had some life changing events which aren't supposed to matter...
So now we'2 back to Buster's objections ... All quite valid.
Regards.
As someone who's studying Chinese, I got pulled in the by the characters on screenshot. I can confirm they match with the described element.
The quiz is obviously not meant to be taken seriously, but I like the narrative progression.
Also, I've never believed much in Personality Tests, although I do enjoy reading some of the tips.
