Re: Robin D. Laws Player Types Quiz
Oh, no. But I don't expect a one-person project like this to phrase things to avoid misleading implications. Even professional psychological researchers don't always do that.

I think I might add a peer–behind–the–curtain page that shows what player-type pair each question maps too. I would be especially inclined to do so if I thought I would get feedback from many participating in this thread—sjgames forumites I hold in high esteem.

Re: Robin D. Laws Player Types Quiz
That would be interesting, but you might get a lot of feedback.

Re: Robin D. Laws Player Types Quiz
Power Gamer: 54%
Butt-Kicker: 38% Tactician: 75% Specialist: 71% Method Actor: 58% Storyteller: 42% Casual Gamer: 38% Wow...I was not expecting to rate that high in any of Tactician, Method Actor, or Storyteller. How much of that is because I have strong preferences for the kinds of characters I like to play, I wonder?

Power Gamer: 21%
Butt-Kicker: 13% Tactician: 63% Specialist: 0% Method Actor: 100% Storyteller: 75% Casual Gamer: 33% That seems about right to me. |

Power Gamer: 37.5% Butt-Kicker: 50% Tactician: 50% Specialist: 12.5% Method Actor: 62.5% Storyteller: 50% Casual Gamer: 29.166666666666668% We both rank Method Actor highest, and Storyteller and Tactician high, and Specialist at the bottom. The main difference is that we reverse the order of the other three: your sequence is Casual Gamer, Power Gamer, Butt-Kicker, and mine is Butt-Kicker, Power Gamer, Casual Gamer. I suppose that's not a huge surprise.

I also did not expect you to score that high on the Butt-Kicker. |

For example, "ST vs TT The "rule of cool" is preferred to careful planning and preparation." I don't see "the rule of cool" as a storyteller value - I don't see it as a positive feature of any kind of roleplaying style. It's been abused so much as an excuse for inconsistency that any attempt to invoke it at me just diminishes the invoker's credibility. |
