I took the test at lunchtime and was a Pack leader with pretty good stats but due to "going off on one" elsewhere had no time to post the result. I retook the test using the alternate answers on the couple of questions I had hummed and haaed over and the result ? A Pack wolf with ABSOLUTELY ZERO MENTAL STRENGTH!! 0%, nothing, nada.... I mean I had a fairly dismal afternoon at work but it was a bit shattering to decline during the course of the afternoon to such an extent that my nutritional requirements are now limited to water and Baby Bio

Well, one more pack leader...

I guess that might have been the number, how much more you had those points than the average tester...

Not comforting, Noggin, as one of my teachers once said, I would be insulted if anyone called me normal...... the only possibility was that I was the first of my gender and age group to take the test ... would that explain it? Not that there is any point in asking someone as feeble minded as myself...

I think we've just got some awesome WW players hanging around.

I'm starting to think the quiz had only two options... maybe we should expand on it! (or at least, those who know how to make one of those quizes should )

Good idea! Maybe we could expand it to "What werewolf role is best suited for you?" and include Ranger, Seer, Hunter, and Cobbler. But what would the requirements be for each one?

You'd make an okay pack wolf, but you wouldn't be much help to your fellow wolves. Still, you'd live because of your outstanding ability to deal with stress.

Nice find Roa, well there's my results, I'll let you make what you will from it.

Just a funny detail...

My pack mentality was 29
Diamond had 51

the next one was 70, the rest were 77, or higher...

So how come, there is repeatedly the situation of Nogrod vs. the rest of the village?
Why does Diamond pile up the suspicion at the start?

I guess this test has its merits?

EDIT: Sorry, just noticed: Roa had pack mentality of 55 - and still is able to pull out of trouble all the time... How do you do it Roa? Natural charm or what (Sleepy would say: X-factor - the one I'm totally lacking, as he so nicely put it yesterday)?

Well the test said I'd survive even though I'm not much help to my other wolves. Which, in game terms, should mean that I would ruthlessly sacrifice the rest of my team and be the last surviving werewolf.

Mwah ha ha ha!

I think that would be an awesome test, and I nominate you to create it.

I once made a test with Quizilla and I thought that site was pretty good. I don't really like the okcupid site, though, it tends to crash my browser. Annoying, that.

This test seems to be geared more towards would you make a good actual wolf. Just look at the questions about being outdoors, etc. That has no bearing on the Werewolf game, since unless you have a laptop, you're going to be playing it indoors.

I'm not sure what the low mental score was about. And as for pack mentality, well I was expecting to get Lone Wolf if there was such a thing, but there probably wasn't, considering no one else has gotten it.

I have yet to be a Wolf in Werewolf so I don't know yet how good of a one I would make. I seem to be able to get myself out of suspicion when I fall into it, but that might just be because I really have been innocent every time.

Nah, Mith is a leader with 110% Mental Ablity.

It listed me under Pack Leader also (with 84% body strength). I might be a rough-tough-and-tumble Texan, but I don't like operating anything heavier than a shopping cart, usually. ; )
