That's news to me.

I knew that. It takes one to recognize one.

Mke, the thought that you might be a precision processor actually occurred to me some eight days ago. I knew that Uli was one, and there was a certain correlation that led me to draw a conclusion about you. Of course I should come clean and tell you that my grandfather processed a batch of precision in my presence, when I was 14. I never forgot it.

Congratulations, Allison!

This means you are highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, your exceptional math and verbal skills make you very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns. And that's just some of what we know about you from your IQ results.

mke · October-4th-2003, 01:42 PM

"Allison"? Are you saying tippy isn't your real name? Say it ain't so!

tippy · October-4th-2003, 01:54 PM

Are you saying Allison is my real name? I guess that's why my I.Q. is higher than yours.

Truth be told, mke, the page failed on 2nd half of test so I had to start over again. I'm assuming that time saved in reinputting my questions upped my score. But to comparisons to Plato and being called a Visionary Philosopher I plead "Guilty as charged."

**Spoiler warning**

What was the answer to cars driving 6 miles in opposite direction turning left and going 8 more. I know it's a simple geometric equation but 9th grade was a long long time ago. I put 20.

I thought the fruit question was the hardest.

The cars form a 16x12 rectangle, so the diagonal is 20, if I calculated correctly. For the fruits, I put coconut.

I only found one question difficult, so I'm curious as to which ones I got wrong.

cookie · October-4th-2003, 02:28 PM

I'm just as smart as Mwanji (131), but I'm an "insightful linguist." The analogies and word problems and completing of maxims was a cinch, but I couldn't for the life of me remember the formula for finding the diagonal of a rectangle.

131. Uh-huh. Who knows?

October-4th-2003, 03:32 PM

Congratulations, Chris!

Your IQ score is 124

This means you are highly intelligent and have the natural fluency of a writer and the visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your creative and expressive mind. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results.

Guess I'm the dummy in this bunch!

Pete C · October-4th-2003, 03:52 PM

I'm a word warrior. I'm also a visionary, but we all knew that, didn't we?

Congratulations, Pete!
Your IQ score is XXX

This means you have exceptional verbal skills. You can easily make sense of complex issues and take an unusually creative approach to solving problems. Your strengths also make you a visionary. Even without trying you're able to come up with lots of new and creative ideas. And that's just a small part of what we know about you from your test results.

Edit:

I decided to keep my score a secret from this point on... I think these kind of evaluators can be useful in some cases, but I have trouble with the concept of a numeric IQ.

Pete C · October-4th-2003, 03:54 PM

By the way, if you score 26 do they also say "Congratulations!"?

Pete C · October-4th-2003, 04:40 PM

bluenoter · October-4th-2003, 04:40 PM

I got the same results as Cookie--131, Insightful Linguist--and I owe Cookie a PM.

I'm fairly sure that this test is worthless as an indicator of a numeric IQ (even if one buys that concept).

Are you saying that you scored 27?

Me too! Which makes sense, 'cause I'm like so way visionarily philosophical all of the time.

moneyp · October-4th-2003, 06:05 PM

138, baby! Visionary Philosopher! Fuckin' ey!

mke · October-4th-2003, 06:21 PM

You VPs are nothing without us Precision Processors who put all your so-called visions in motion.

Not to mention the Insightful Linguists who then market them to the people.

I'm not quite sure what the Word Warriors do. Patrol the linguistic borders?

October-4th-2003, 06:53 PM

As I understand it, Word Warrors "take care" of the Myopic Linguists.

Sergio Zamora · October-4th-2003, 07:34 PM

Congratulations, Johnny!
Your IQ score is 73

...

We also compared your answers with others who have taken the test, and according to the sorts of questions you got correct, we can tell your Intellectual Type is an Inventive Inquisitor.

You have the unusual distinction of being equally good at math and verbal skills. This means you are a creative thinker and are uniquely good at teaching others through experiences. You are also a great improviser and very good at handling change.

Uli · October-4th-2003, 08:03 PM

Congratulations, Uli!
Your IQ score is 159

...

We also compared your answers with others who have taken the test, and
according to the sorts of questions you got correct, we can tell your Intellectual
Type is DA BOMB!

Ok, I cheated. But the smartest always get away with it.

Cem · October-4th-2003, 09:25 PM

This test is obviously bunk. 131 points and "Word Warrior", me!? Maybe, if that means "struggles with words".

Pete C · October-4th-2003, 11:15 PM

Did someone say Bunk?

I think the title of this thread would make a great suggestive blues lyric.

mke · October-5th-2003, 05:51 AM

I'm a precision processor
You can process me all night long

"Congratulations, Johnny!
Your IQ score is 73"

Everyone's a winner, baby/That's the truth!

Tom Storer · October-5th-2003, 07:02 AM

I too am a visionary philosopher, at 136. I had trouble with those cars turning left and stuff, too. Took me quite a while to find some kind of answer for the one with the white and grey dots in the square, you know, find the next one in the sequence. I couldn't see any kind of sequence, but in the end found one. But I might have just made it up. Those visual things are a lot harder than the ones with words.

mke · October-5th-2003, 08:21 AM

I found the one with the multi-colour, multi-shape sequence completely baffling. Anyone figured that out?

mke · October-5th-2003, 08:22 AM

This one too:

mke · October-5th-2003, 08:29 AM

I am 785,737,135 seconds old and managed to bump my IQ up to 133 under an assumed identity, as well as morph into a Visual Mathematician:

This means you are gifted at spotting patterns — both in pictures and in numbers. These talents combined with your overall high intelligence make you good at understanding the big picture, which is why people trust your instincts and turn to you for direction — especially in the workplace.

(I think that this is because I finally figured out the sequence things that were puzzling me.)
