    I was ready to take this, then I read question 2:

    Now usually, I'll choose the answer that best suits me of those available. My answer would be "No, I refuse the job." I'm not picking choice B because the rest of it is not what I would do in the given situation. Since the 'job' is '100% optional', where's the option not to do it at all?!? I don't want to report my boss to the cops or quit my job. If he wants 20 ppl dead and I ain't on the list, I don't give a damn. More proof of bad writing and spelling - it's principle!

    Other DnD like tests show me as Neutrally Good or Lawful with Chaotic tendencies.

    Most of the tests on that site have sucky spelling and grammar but oh well. I blame schools.

    I answered the questions as best I could. Some where iffy for me. To a great extent this is how I see myself.

    Crap test with rather obvious answers, but it got the right answer (mostly) anyway.

    True Neutral, as above (I'm sure no-one needs me to re-post it, eh?). Like Fel, I thought that the questions were too bleedin' obvious most of the time, making it easy to manipulate an answer out of it. :rolleyes:

    I'm still :lol: that examples of similarly aligned folks included the entirety of Switzerland and Canada, though! :shake:

    Wee. I'm Harry Potter :p

    The answers were rather vague, and I more often than not found myself to be somewhat split between the options.

    Well, the statement that for a lawful character, the law must be upheld to the letter at all costs, even if it's wrong, is not exactly brilliant... Some of the sample situations aren't too good, either. But overall, the test doesn't look so bad. Anyway, perhaps I should paste a longer description of LG from there.

    True Neutral
    50% Good, 54% Chaotic

    So many simple questions and spelling errors, that test was badly constructed. This writen by a humanist into physics and astronomy :rolleyes:

    Not bad though.

    EH? Me chaotic good? Well chaotic everyone knew but good? hhuumm I always thought myself of a mix of neutral anf good... And it's not like DnD can categorize real life, human behaviours is too much complicated to be just nine alignment.

    The spelling is not the problem really.I've seen worse. Other stuff is far more idiotic. I mean - just take a look, since when is Oscar Wilde chaotic good? And in the same way as Austin Powers?! Am I the only one going WTF here? :confused:
    Next thing will be putting Petronius beside the Green Goblin (or something) in the Lawful evil column.

    Before taking the test, I bet I get another 'neutral good' result. :rolleyes:

    Well, maybe not this time; true neutral with 50% in good and 50% in chaotic. Avoid extremes, resist authorities, do what feels the best, etc... :hmm:
