What's your alignment?
May 8th, 2008 at 4:50pm
 
So there are a bunch of alignment tests on the web and I tried one.

I don't think I liked the results.  I could understand getting a neutral or good result and I could understand getting a neutral or lawful result.  I think I tend to lean lawful and am more good than bad.  I'd have expected LN.


What is your Alignment?
You scored as a Chaotic Evil
A Chaotic Evil person is destructive to the extreme. These people put no value in life or beauty, taking pleasure in destroying both what is good and what is ordered. They have little to no respect for laws and the rights of others. Revenge is a powerful motivator for these people.

Chaotic Evil    75% 
True Neutral   65% 
Lawful Evil      60% 
Neutral Good  60% 
Lawful Neutral  55% 
Lawful Good    55% 
Chaotic Neutral   45% 
Chaotic Good    45% 
Neutral Evil    30% 


Chaotic Evil... who knew?

the test is fine, but the way it is calculated is flawed.

What is your Alignment?
You scored as a Lawful Evil
A Lawful Evil person is someone who respects laws, customs, or traditions, but will try to bend them to suit their own needs. These people have little concern for others they hurt, being intrinsically self motivated. Despite this, they value order and obedience to authority.
Lawful Evil       70%  
Neutral Good   60%  
Lawful Good     60%  
Chaotic Good   35%  
Lawful Neutral   30%  
True Neutral     25%  
Chaotic Evil      25%  
Neutral Evil       20%  
Chaotic Neutral 20%  


if you look at my results, you can see that underneath my lawful evil alignment i scored the most points in the three "good" alignments.  how could i be considered lawful evil if the majority of my answers were good?  the other two evils (neutral and chaotic) are down at the bottom of the list.  therefore, i have to question the "evil" descriptor in my alignment.

now it is true that the "lawful" descriptor stacks up higher than the neutral or chaotic descriptors for the first part of my alignment, therefore my proper alignment is most likely lawful good, though i would have imagined i was more the neutral good type...

with five degrees of answers, it can be very complicated trying to interpret the results.  the results do not reflect the answers, so they are using a flawed algorithm to calculate results.

Actually I suspect its flawed questions. 

Then you have to consider what someone is willing to think of themselves.  Its easy to overestimate your goodness but people tend to hedge on their evilness.

You scored as a True Neutral

A True Neutral person has two faces- either these people are merely apathetic, preferring to focus their minds on more important things, or these people truly believe in a balance of all things. To these people, there can be no light without some darkness. These people also have no dedication to, or intrinsic distrust of, laws.

True Neutral        65%
Chaotic Evil           60%
Lawful Good        55%
Lawful Evil            55%
Neutral Good       55%
Lawful Neutral      50%
Chaotic Neutral    45%
Chaotic Good         40%
Neutral Evil            20%

Hmmmm...

A Neutral Good person tries to do the 'goodest' thing possible. These people are willing to work with the law to accomplish their goal, but if the law is corrupt they are just as willing to tear it down. To these people, doing what's right is the most important thing, regardless of rules, customs, or laws.

Neutral Good      65%
Lawful Evil         60%
Chaotic Good    55%
True Neutral      50%
Chaotic Evil         45%
Lawful Good       45%
Chaotic Neutral 30%
Neutral Evil       25%
Lawful Neutral       20%

It has various testing mistakes which alter its variability and reliability. For example it asks a question about anarchy using the word anarchy a couple of times. When testing, you only use the descriptive word once in a question, then test the same question but 4 more different ways asking in a disguised way. For example "Do you believe in anarchy?" would be one question, and another question would be "Do you think you would like it more if people just made up there own means and methods of living?"  It is bad test design i.e. "crap".

i always thought i'd be more chatoic neutral than pure neutral, but otherwise it seems pretty much along the lines of what i'd have rated myself out of simple self-knowledge. i can't say i put any faith in the quiz though, as each question had five answer options and there are nine alignments last i checked. i'm not sure how it is all divided and all that crap. oh well, it amused me, as easy as that is to do.

Hmmm...not sure about this, but:

What is your Alignment?
You scored as a Chaotic Good
A Chaotic Good person is someone who has little intrinsic respect for laws or authority, seeing them as insufficient to sustain what's right. These people work according to their own moral compass which, while good, is not necessarily always aligned with that of society. Despite their chaotic tendancies, these people are good at heart.

Can't say as I'd agree with this.  Personally, I've always considered me-self to be CN.

You scored as a Lawful Evil

I'd have to agree with most of you.  LE was not what I would've expected.  Lawful maybe.  Evil...not so much.  It's definetly not one of the better tests I've seen.

I'm gonna have to rate the quiz as Not Scottish. Depending on how I answer the tie breaker, I'm either neutral good or lawful evil. Shocked
