Apparently I'm a pony lover because I play games that aren't designed exclusively for the purpose of bolstering some imaginary sense of over-compensatory gaming masculinity.

I do like ponies, though. They're so nice.

I got Simulant for my second test... and i'm not really sure what that even is supposed to mean. Can someone explain this one to me? :eek:

I received "Tactician -You attack games as the cerebral challenges they are, crafting the perfect plan for each and every situation."

I am quite happy with it, although I am not sure how my answers reflected this.

A lot of the questions were quite presumptuous though, they seem to assume that all gamers play all popular games, usually I had to choose the one I'd most consider playing as I didn't have any.
I got Grouper, and I'm actually quite surprised I didn't get Tactician myself. I'm the ultimate strategy player, I always come up with a tactical and strategic approach to things and use those to achieve victory.

That said, I'm happy with what I did get, since I do generally prefer multiplayer to solo games. Though admittedly I do usually end up playing solo anyway as very few of my friends are gamers, my laptop isn't great for games, and I don't have XBL...

I got 'The Explorer', who apparently doesn't care about the story and just likes playing in the sandbox. That couldn't be much further from the truth, the story is easily the most important thing to me in a game, and i usually get bored of exploring sandboxes for the sake of it pretty quickly

They gave me "The Tinker" Which would be great if I actually ever got in and modded anything. Problem is: I have no modding know-how. I like games in which I create things like Civ IV, Sim City, The Sims and such, but I don't actually make mods for them.

I got tactician. Many of my so called "tactics" is games equals run-in-Rambo-style-and-shoot-everything-until-it-stops-moving. Or sometimes I ninja my way in and break their necks one by one. I usually don't have the patience for that though.

The Grouper & The Best of the Best

I don't get it. A majority of those questions weren't related to Multiplayer
Or...Were they?

where is this quiz?

Found it!

I got grouper, which is weird. I'm not very social. But then again, I think in the big picture, it's probably true. I do like playing games with other people.

I got Simulant. It was unexpected as hell (I was sure I was going to get Tactician) but I wouldn't change my result. It doesn't describe me perfectly, I enjoy the trip to fantasy-land as much as anybody, but I like what I got. Plus, it has the best picture of the bunch IMO.

I also got grouper...which is weird...because I think the time I've spent playing games with other people added up equals under 20 minutes in total.

I got.

If you want a laugh, read the first two words of every post on this page. Including this post, over 2/3rds begin with the words "I got".
