Hello. Anyway, I'll probably take it again later and make comments on my choices which is something I thought about doing in the first place but didn't.

I see. Well, glad it worked out for you.

Sweet!

--- End quote ---
Marisa's more on the isolationist side, according to how I profiled her. From reading her lines, I get the gist of someone who's more often passively responding to what the world throws at her but I might be wrong. Also this personality metrics thingy is just something I thought of out of thin air so I wouldn't exactly call it science xP


--- Quote from: Mikuru on May 19, 2017, 09:02:13 PM ---I think you meant to say "Do you feel that there is often something you contribute to the people around you?"

--- End quote ---
Yeah, that needs to be reworded. Also the way I would answer it personally is strictly No, and someone with a different answer might ask the question a completely different way lol.

--- End quote ---
You know, I just realized that I gave Patchouli almost the same exact values as Sakuya, except one notch further on the Specialized side. Which is weird cause they are so different. But anyway, if it helps to associate with Patchy rather than Sakuya, help yourself :)


--- Quote from: Gesh86 on May 20, 2017, 01:57:07 PM ---Closest match: Reisen Udongein Inaba

Runner up: Fujiwara no Mokou

Good picks I suppose. Only thing that made me raise a brow is that Mokou is described as often blunt. Am I?

--- End quote ---
You definitely are.

The questions themselves are kinda iffy, both in how they're phrased and the trait points the answers yield. If anyone is curious I can share that as well.
Kurzov:
Well, here we go:

Closest Match is Reisen, Runner-Up is Mokou.

Uh... Okay.

That's just a joke (though you could argue it's not a joke because it's not funny) and doesn't reflect my political views.

Sure, also it would probably be a good idea to show what scores the taker got at the end of the quiz.

Anyway, here's the notes

1. Do you often find yourself acquiring new tastes and passions through observing others?

I picked 4 because it's the case with a lot of the things I end up doing. Even trying Touhou was something I did because of other people, though it's more because I wouldn't have known about it in the first place if it wasn't for other people. I don't really do something to be "trendy" either.

2. When you have opinions that don't align, how likely are you to change your own opinions to better match your friends'?

The questions that relate to friends are more hypothetical since I don't really know anyone I would consider a friend. But I think I wouldn't change my opinion just because my friends would think differently. At least for opinions that are based on facts I picked 2 because I'd agree with them if they can convince me or show that my facts aren't entirely correct.

3. How quickly do you react to most jokes and innuendos?

2

4. Something supernatural is occurring in Gensokyo. Assuming you don't have anything to do with it, how are you most likely to get to know more about it?

Watch the news. I mean 1.

5. Whenever you initiate conversation in any situation, is it more often that you have to, or that you just feel like talking to the person?

Can I say both? Anyway I picked 1 because I'm not a very talkative person usually, though I sometimes pitch my thoughts in too.

6. When you get into petty arguments, are you more often frustrated with someone, or defending yourself against someone else's frustration with you?

3 because I try to avoid arguments. But if I am angry, I just shout then leave the room to calm down.

7. You are running an errand, minding your own business, when you overhear lively banter coming from a group of people not far from you. You are more likely to:

2. Everyone overhears things sometimes but I wouldn't try eavesdropping. Although I'm physically disabled so I don't think I would be running errands in the first place. Also, I'm not sure what "none of the above" would mean in this case.

8. What is your preferred wardrobe?

What my mom makes me wear lol so probably 3. Also looking is also a job that clothes do.

9. Do some of your closest friends look to you for emotional support and let you in on deeply personal issues (in private)?

Like I said before, I don't have any friends so 4.

10. Do you feel that there is often something to contribute to the people around you? (E.g. a personal anecdote, an opinion, advice, etc. On a scale of 1 to 4.)

I actually don't remember if I picked 3 or 2 the first time. It's not very often, but sometimes I do make situational jokes or ask a question if someone is talking. I guess 2.

11. What is more important: getting along or getting things done? Think: working as part of a team.

I think last time I picked 3 because if you're working in a team then you don't want to have arguments but you also need to get the thing done which could mean someone's opinion would have to be discarded.

12. What do you value most in a companion?

I don't remember my last choice, but I think I picked 2. If your "friend" is judging you and your choices all the time I don't think they are a good friend. But there is a difference between judging and helping you make a good choice by speaking their mind. I didn't pick 1 or 3 because that sounds like I would be using or abusing my friends if I felt that way. I'm not so sure about 4 and 5 just sounds like I have no self-esteem.

13. You are the strongest Yama in charge of judging the dead, and you can't back out of your job. What is your view regarding Naraka (deepest layer of "Buddhist Hell")? Note: souls that aren't sent to Naraka don't necessarily end up in Bhavaagra (Enlightened paradise).

I just took this as "how do you feel about the death sentence?" so I picked 1.

So I got the same result after retaking so I guess I picked the same options. I can't really say how accurate the descriptions of the characters are. As for how much I identify with the results, I don't think nanny-like would be a way to describe me. My brother is probably more like that. I'm not sure about how practical I am, but it's probably in the middle. I sometimes do things that aren't very practical. Besides that, I do think of myself as part of the more self-controlled half of my family, but even I sometimes lose my temper. As for the Meiling half I do procrastinate on "important" things even things I do actually like doing. As for "heroic" and "grandiose" I don't think those describe me well. Again, my brother is the one going on crusades all the time, especially if climate change is involved.

I would probably also put some Patchy in a description of myself, but that's more because of the disabled bit. But real people are very complex and when people make characters, they usually end up with a few character traits because it's easier to write dialogue and stuff. (Also if I had picked option 3 for the first question and left everything else the same then the runner up would be Mokou and even there I can see similarities.)

Writing all of this took far longer that I expected it to.

(Glances briefly at own user name). Hm, yeah. This can happen to anyone, I suppose.

I had to cover all bases. Someone's answer might be as specific as "complain to the group that you're allergic to people, then walk away."

This question pertains to the isolationist-intervening spectrum, and I wouldn't exactly put asking questions on the intervening side. An intervening person is more of an initiator, while an isolationist person might not necessarily be quiet.

Here I'm trying to get a number on the Harmonious vs Utilitarian scale. Though, this question was poorly asked. The Kant school of philosophy sees human beings as ends rather than means, and I was hoping that some people would see interpersonal bonds to be just as important, if not more, than getting a task done.

--- End quote ---
Ok, I don't want to go too deep into modern politics, but I just want to point out the difference here. The Yama can see everyone's sins without fail, there's no escaping it, whereas the death sentence might seem unpalatable to some because of the slight possibility that the person is innocent.

Man, sure feels nice to see this pet project evoke so much self-reflection in someone. Thanks for taking the effort to rehash your thought process!
I think I'll do just as you suggested about showing the taker's scores, maybe give a few days. And since you asked for it, here's the questions and the point values of each answer.

-Letters correspond to the personality category followed by a number (scale of 1-4).
-Plus signs separate the point values if one answer yields points in multiple categories.
-All the points in each category are averaged out in the end.

4. None of the above.
Points: SO3.5+IK3.5, IK1.5, IK3, nil

You are the strongest Yama in charge of judging the dead, and you can't back out of your job. What is your view regarding Naraka (deepest layer of "Buddhist Hell")? Note: souls that aren't sent to Naraka don't necessarily end up in Bhavaagra (Enlightened paradise).
1. Never send a single soul to Naraka.
2. Only send them there if there's something that you cannot possibly overlook.
3. Write up or memorize a list of criteria beforehand so you don't have to sweat the details later on.
4. Actively look for reasons to send them there, to serve as an example for all the sinners out there.
5. Mull over each decision with despair, with a coin to flip when needed.
Points: HF1.5+SN3.5, HF1.5, SO1.5+HF1.5, SO1.5+SN3.5+HU3.5, HF3.5+SN1.5
