This is really interesting but i would reccomend you do use a different test than Myers Briggs since the test-retest reliability of that test (3months) is only 0.5. That means that if you test a person today chances are only 50% he will get the same result in three months.[/QUOTE
At this time, Myers Briggs is the only test with enough exposure to inspire the volume of response we'll need for the statistical analysis. Many people already know their Myers Briggs type, and there are very simple and quick test resources online for Myers Briggs.
I'd Love to see that dependency disappear down the road!
Okay, i understand. In sweden myers briggs isn't used a lot and i just wanted to make sure you understood the rather poor reliability of the test. I hope too that the test becomes a reliable tool for measuring personality but honestly I believe more in normative tests.

Agreed. :-)
Hopefully we'll be able to build an alternative. It will require consistent interest, though; as, without data, the project would fall apart.
PS: Sweden FTW!

Gogo Esports. Don't see the point of this response, not like it was surprising? Wouldn't introverts tend to play single player and offline? If they're competitive, do speed runs or accumulate achievements. Esports is the more social realm of competitive gaming. If the questions were more specific like "would you rather play a game at home by yourself or at a LAN party with your friends" or "do you prefer to discover a new game along with friends or by yourself" etc then esports folks ought to score more extroverted than on these generic tests.
While I reconsidered the post because the thread is targeted at players and not esport fans, I still find the statistics amusing. In my experience the MB test isn't too off the ball, but it is only accurate in very general sort of way (the descriptions of the profiles are very general). Therefore I'm wondering what's sort of commonality correlates with the skews(TL population, starcraft players, Internet users).
That being said, some of it should just be accounted for because combinations of certain traits are much rarer than others.

Excellent to hear; especially considering that's my type as well! :-D

dunno what you need a test for. you're obviously INTP

I'm zerg and I think I'm both INTP and INTJ. I did the test about 5 times over the course of a year and have gotten strong percentages on the INT, but the P and J have both always been about 8%.

Please keep in mind we will need character names (case sensitive!) and character codes in order to cross reference your sc2ranks data.
If you'd prefer, E-Mail your submission to phinix@sc2persona.com and it will only be accessible to those who are given Read access to the database (coding contributors - currently just myself and Briz).
We will refrain from adding those submissions to the interim spreadsheet that is currently public.

I think only extreme introverts prefer to play single player by themselves. The more common description of an introvert is someone who prefers to interact with a few close friends, so playing video games with your friends is well within that definition.
On the other hand, a true extrovert thrives on the stimulus of interacting with new people. So on a typical night, the extrovert is more likely to do an activity involving more direct social activity than staying home to play games. At a lan party, the extrovert will go out of his way to meet new people.
