I don't think this is accurate at all for many reasons. There are some question where you wanna answer with something else then yes or no. Put the questions in a context instead of just yes or no and you would get a completly different result. But it's fun, which is why I had to do it twice just to make sure I got the same result 😛

Edit: my IQ is above the level for mensa and I'm not in the 1% 😛 But then who said personality had anything to do with IQ.

We should see if the personality influences your site preference. Wait, in that case you should play at TFC! 😉 (I do use C@W @W, but I rarely play chess there.)

It might also be interesting to see if there's any sort of correlation between site preference and rating.

And between personality type and rating. And between personality type and number of moves. And between favourite food and site preference. And between hair colour and number of clans you belong to. 😉

I would be surprised if it was anything else than 100.

well, maybe visual training by chess might artificially raise our score on visual tests.

What are you smoking everyone knows there is no relation between the fact that I play 50+ games at a time and that I randomly drop pieces (queens) every hundred games or so.
