So come on.. Who's badder than me!

Quote:
The Machiavelli personality test has a range of 0-100
Your Machiavelli score is: 85
You are a high Mach, you endorse Machiavelli's opinions.
Most people fall somewhere in the middle, but there's a significant minority at either extreme.
EDIT - I think this test should be compulsory for everyone who has over 1000 posts, and that you should get a little smiley sized coin next to your info on the left which shows the number.. What do you think, Brad?

Your Machiavelli score is: 59
You are a low Mach, you reject Machiavelli's opinions.

I found myself answering at least 50% with neutral '3'. Wishy-washy fecker I guess.

Nowhere near 1000 posts and not as bad as you scratt

76

Of course, I lied on some of the questions to get a higher score. Does or doesn't that mean that I deserve that score?

What is it with either cooking and eating squirrels, or calling their hygiene into question with people on this forum today!

I think if you lie you automatically get an extra 1 point, for each lie.
So consider yourself 81 or something!

Poor Machiavelli. Forever doomed to be characterized by his satire. Oh well, ever see this book?*

Most people fall somewhere in the middle, but there's a significant minority at either extreme.
As someone who has minored in polticial science, I can say that the test actually has squat to do with Mach's philosophy. But hey, whatever it takes to be crowned the Highest Mach of Aldo!

Yeah. This test didn't exactly deja-vu with my own impression of Il Principe. there's a lot more to Machiavelli than what people think. Actually I think the world would have a less gullible population if people actually bothered to read it. And I'm not talking about the short version he edited for that duke dude.

Nothing spectacular about my test results.

And true Mach, according to this test, however, would probably cook the results to fit the impression he/she wanted people to have of him/her.

Really.. And you didn't have a problem with even a few of your answers?



I tried so hard to give the answers I knew were right.. But something really made me hold back on a few..

I answered honestly. A few of my answers made me tug at my collar and think about how awful I can be sometimes. But yeah, this silly test aside, I'm generally an great guy.

Were you by any chance about to write "evil guy"?

I got 66 and was also accused of endorsing Machiavelli's opinions. I've had just about enough of being insulted by these tests!

If I knew what that meant, and how it all tied in to this guy (because I'm sure that's a little sideways slam), I might be mad.

Whoops. My evil half is always fighting with my pleasent half. Maybe I'm so evil that I try to disarm people with simple grammar mistakes so they'll think I'm gentle and folksy then Whammo! I hit them with my evil stick.
