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. This is a classic misunderstanding of what a introvert is. Put simply, the difference between introverts and extroverts is how they recharge energy. Imagine a party in a packed apartment. An extrovert can spend hours there and feel refreshed and energized at the end. On the other hand, an introvert will feel tired and drained. But this has nothing to do with how they act at the party. I'm a huge introvert and I go to parties all the time. I act very outgoing, friendly, and confident. Close friends are in fact quite surprised when they find out I am an introvert at heart. But I could never sustain going to parties twice a week every week because I would get too drained. Similarly in high school I did competitive athletics and I am a competitive person. Maybe introverts tend towards individual sports like track or swimming and extroverts prefer team games. This certainly held true with people I know. Perhaps the analogous holds for gaming as well. Perhaps introverts prefer Starcraft instead of team games like Halo. Personally I feel energized after I play Starcraft. But if I was in a room with my team mates playing Halo for hours, I would definitely feel drained. I wasn't venturing an understanding of introvert and extrovert beyond how the online tests linked in the OP used them. | ||

I wasn't venturing an understanding of introvert and extrovert beyond how the online tests linked in the OP used them. They often ask things like 'After a night of partying I: A: Feel refreshed. B: Need some time alone to regenerate.', not so much 'Do you or don't you go partying'? Of course, this is silly, because I miss the option 'Feel annoyed at myself and the collective of human stupidity, hate myself, the entire world, the lack of caffeine and am one step closer to work over my school with a half-automatic but am terribly pleased I live on the civilized part of the North-Atlantic where I need to at least have a reason to posses them.' | ||

Just when i stopped condering switching over and over again and sticking to P. T_T Also, terran looked more "J" to me. I mean, in the actual game they make the decisions, they decide when to attack, which opening to choose, how long the game is gonna long, etc. Whereas P is actually the one reacting in PvT. Not giving any information because i have no idea what my race actually is whatsoever :o | ||
