[Rhys]

Chrono Trigger Test (http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?testid=12289741878746488441) via OKCupid. I got 100%, which will obviously impress all the foxy ladies.

[schally]

I only got 85%. I burn with shame.

In my defense... well, I guess there is no defense. Flog if you must.

[Gump]

I got a 95%.

If flog I must, then flog I shall.

[dnl2ba]

Level 88 (71st percentile). What text-based sequel? :(

OTOH, not doing well on this test may be a prerequisite to picking up chicks.

[Gump]

Radical Dreamers was a text adventure for the SNES addon, the Sattelaview. One of the characters was Magus in disguise, and the game wrapped up the Schala subplot from CT. Its story was later reworked into Chrono Cross (the heroes were Serge and Kid, and there's a reference to it in Chronopolis).

And it depends on what kind of chick. It's a fact that there are plenty of hot babes out there who are totally turned on by Chrono Trigger trivia.

[dnl2ba]

Like Sheri, and... yeah.

I actually guessed Radical Dreamers.

[schally]

I can't believe I got the lowest score when I'm the one that's named after a character in the damn game.

[schally]

Well, actually, I can. The fine details of my video game experiences erode with the passage of time. Unlike Rhys, who can still recite the entire game's item lists from memory along with all the locations and enemies that you can get them from.

Don't deny it, you know it to be true.

[Gump]

I can't believe I got the lowest score when I'm the one that's named after a character in the damn game.
Oh, is that it? I always thought it was just a funky reworking of your real name, but yeah, I see it now.

And I don't know about Rhys, but I just replay CT whenever I get the itch, which is about once a year or so. Therefore, most of this is still fresh for me. Same for FF1.

[Rhys]

I know that Sheri's harsh words are just an indication of her frustration that such an awesome hunk of geek-meat like me resides on the other side of the continent from her.

It's been a bit over a year since I played through CT. And I only remember which enemies give the awesome items.

[dnl2ba]

What were the answers to "first boss" and the thing about the machine boss guy and the item you can steal off him?

[Rhys]

First boss is Yakra and you steal a Blue Mail from Mother Brain.

The Villains' OKCupid Test (http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?testid=17981798355370227268)


Davros
Your responses indicate that you are 27% Innately Evil and 54% Machiavellian!

Is this, then, to be the price of it all? It isn't exactly what you wanted, but it left you in a pretty good place. Destruction -- extermination -- that's your purpose now that you've changed, but only as far as it will help you build a place for you and yours. Your motives are simple and your plans direct.

For your parnter in crime: The Green Goblin might understand you, as might Dracula.

Always avoid: Grendel. Though he wouldn't eat all of your children, the Daleks, he certainly wouldn't stop when he found they don't go down very well.

You scored higher than 2% on Innately Evil
You scored higher than 83% on Machiavellian

I guess I'm well-meaning at heart.

[Gump]

It figures that someone else would get the Doctor Who villain...


Mr. Burns
Your responses indicate that you are 52% Innately Evil and 50% Machiavellian!
You've gathered many creature comforts, and you've been around long enough to know what you want. And you certainly have the means to get it. There isn't a lot that stands in your way, but that which does you find totally insurmountable. Have the wisdom to accept the things you cannot change, and pick your battles carefully, but don't worry, because you're destined to win most of them anyway.

For your partner in crime: The Joker

Always avoid: those more machiavellian than yourself, like Number One or Darth Vader.

You scored higher than 66% on Innately Evil
You scored higher than 66% on Machiavellian

[schally]

I guess this confirms that we're destined to be partners, Matt.


The Green Goblin
Your responses indicate that you are 40% Innately Evil and 43% Machiavellian!
Something went wrong with you. You had it all once, you sat on the top of the world. Then he came. Your problem? You never really tried to achieve victory over your darker half. You see the good in what it wants -- revenge. Of course, you had no idea it would be like this. Does it even matter? He's already won.
For your partner in crime: Mr. Burns or Davros would be a pretty good analgesic for you -- what you need is someone who understands you and won't try to bring out the good in you.

Always avoid: William the Bloody. His honest nature would only make it worse.

[dnl2ba]

Gump too. He's Mr. Burns!

What'd you get for "you scored higher than __ on ____"? If you took the test while logged in, you can probably go back and check your score.

[Gump]

Woo, we should start our own Legion of Doom and try to take over the galaxy or something.

[Rhys]

The Joker
47% Innately Evil, 43% Machiavellian
You've danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight. It was exciting. You've always been a baddie at heart, but chances are something happened to push you over the edge. And while you were once in it only for yourself, now you're motivated by a desire to see the one responsible for making you the monster you are today, and everyone else (for that matter), get what's coming to them.

For your partner in crime: how about Mr. Burns?
Always avoid: whatever doesn't please you at the moment.

You scored higher than 55% on Innately Evil
You scored higher than 40% on Machiavellian

I am so happy.

[Gump]

Sweet, our Legion grows by the minute!

Er, I mean, "Excellent."

[schally]

What'd you get for "you scored higher than __ on ____"? If you took the test while logged in, you can probably go back and check your score.

I wasn't logged in, but IIRC it was something like 30 for innately evil and 33 for machiavellian.

I took it a while ago, so I dunno if our percentiles are comparable (especially since it's not well-balanced-- it appears many people got perfect scores in some sections, so you can't outscore that many people). I remember some gripes that the author actually got some wrong.
