Ok seriuosly. Luvian's thread <a href=http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=34;t=003733>here</a> gave me an idea.

If we were to make a "which IW character are you?" test how would you go about it?

First of all which members do you see as possible outcomes? (I'd say about 8-10). What short description for each of them?

And then what questions should be there?

er... any of you actually care to attempt and compile this? any ideas?

Ehh? Ehh? :D

What, we're allowed to lie on this test thing? ;)

Looks like it... [img]graemlins/Funny_post.gif[/img]

:D

Well, I guess that's a little better... :D

Outcomes? I think a few could be:
Tech support: Often helps out when it comes to other users problems
Joker:Adds to the humor of the forum
Forum Family Member: Well known across the forum for various reasons (maybe multiple types?)
Gamer:Generally posts in the games forum, or is too scared to venture into GD


Well I don't know what sort of outcomes you had in mind ZFR, but let us know how it goes.

Arvon the joker? hmmm... doesnt sound quite right..

Does anyone remember this? Might be handy for your project, ZFR. ;)

Holy crap! that website was awesome!

Some of those descriptions were just screaming out similarities to users herer.

A poll! A poll! We need a poll!

heheh, good idea!

I'm too lazy/tired to make one though [img]tongue.gif[/img]

A poll for what?

Which flame warrior are you...

er... he he... umm... I'm not really making one. Just came up with the idea and hoped someone would create one [img]redface.gif[/img] :blush:

As for the outcomes Hivetyrant I had in mind making it specific users. Like "which lotr character are you" you get outcomes like Frodo, Gandalf, Aragorn, Sauron... with "which IW character are you?" outcomes are like Ziroc, Cloudy, johnny, Illumina, Dundee, Timber... people with strong characteristics...

and me!

Hmmmm.....

lol, that could be a lot harder!

Hmmmm.....

lol, that could be a lot harder! </font>[/QUOTE][img]graemlins/hidesbehindsofa.gif[/img] because I know this is going to get me in trouble, but the top 10 posters, by count, would be Cloudy.... :lightningboltrunner:

Oh Rooooooooooooooooooobbbbbert...... *crooks a finger toward the bard hiding behind the sofa* C'mere and let's test my latest..uh.... cookie recipe.. yah.. cookies! *hides [img]graemlins/stormy.gif[/img] behind her back. :D :D :D

You know, I'll sit around and assign FlameWarrior types to board members, but I still haven't figured out which one I am. Do I simply defy description, or have they not written one about me yet?

The "Which IW character are you?" test does sound interesting and amusing, however. I have this image of the test telling me that I'm Timber, and the test telling Timber that he's Dundee, and so on and so forth.. These things amuse me far more than they should.

Yorick and Chewbacca always reminded me of Duelists when they were at each other. Back in the good old days. :D

Or maybe, you're trying not to be catagorized... :D

That right there is an invitation if ever i saw one. Are you sure you wanna know? :D A "which flame warrior is Illumina" poll wouldn't be too hard to swing, you know. ;)
