Actually, a medium would be 0%, because the scale goes from 100% A -> 0 -> 100% B

Yer not a hybrid, Harry Soli. Yer INFP.

[Solifuge]

I've gotten either result roughly 50% of the time, throughout school and career stuff. I generally lean INTP though, so this is a bit of an oddity!

I just reported what this one gave me.

Precise about their descriptions, INTPs will often correct others (or be sorely tempted to) if the shade of meaning is a bit off. While annoying to the less concise, this fine discrimination ability gives INTPs so inclined a natural advantage as, for example, grammarians and linguists.

Spoiler: And everyone else's. (click to show/hide)

Feeling tends to be all or none. When present, the INTP's concern for others is intense, albeit naive. In a crisis, this feeling judgement is often silenced by the emergence of Thinking, who rushes in to avert chaos and destruction. In the absence of a clear principle, however, INTPs have been known to defer judgement and to allow decisions about interpersonal matters to be left hanging lest someone be offended or somehow injured.

I dunno about the INTJ thing.  I make so many plans and am, yes, extraordinarily pragmatic, but I can't compete with most INTJs on their own turf.

ENTP
Extravert(1%)  iNtuitive(100%)  Thinking(25%)  Perceiving(11)%  (in other tests, i'm slightly more E)

    You have marginal or no preference of Extraversion over Introversion (1%)
    You have a strong preference of Intuition over Sensing (100%)
    You have moderate preference of Thinking over Feeling (25%)
    You have slight preference of Perceiving over Judging (11%)


ENTP is like INTP, but instead of telling yourself "he is such a prick" in your head, you notice that, looking at his face , actually, you said it aloud.
ENTP like the truth and to find out things, just for the fun of it and to play with ideas.
It's quite uncommon among girls (more a "man" thing, you know), and can be viewed as weird, perhaps even weirder than INTP/J because ENTP can and WILL talk about what is in his head.

And...i talk a lot, too.

My favorite ENTP people are Dr House Tyrion Lannister or Han Solo
Very, very few girls, in fact.

HAH!

As INFP/INTP, I am an ideal typological "Companion" for myself.

Companion: similar modes of expression: bear each other's company well

Must be why I get along so well with me.

I don't understand why some of these things are broken into mutually exclusive pairs.  Wouldn't the demands of your current circumstances greatly affect your actions, and therefore your answers?

Actually Ogdibus, as I recall, a big part of the typology thing is about how you are most comfortable being or behaving. Of course circumstances cause us to act outside of our type... an introvert could be sociable and act as the center of attention for a while at an party, or an event meant for them. This is an activity that might feel draining to them, while taking some alone time to wind down and organize their thoughts would feel revitalizing.

Some types are actually deceptive.
For instance,
ENTP is not really extraverted as they tend to flee from social situations which are often boring for them. (Even if they love debates and intellectual discussions like INTP, but will be more at ease with group discussion). And in social situations they can be perceived as critical and awkward as they will sometimes express EVERYTHING.

INFJ  could also seems to be extraverted as they will fight for a cause with a strength that will make people think they are extraverted.

INTJ

    You have strong preference of Thinking over Feeling (88%)

I feel a little in between TJ and NP I guess.

I compiled stats from the people who posted so far:

Of Bay 12 Sample (27 recorded)

Thinking: 74.1%
Feeling: 25.9%

Judging: 55.5%
Perceiving: 44.4%

For some reason INTJ's and INTP's are disproportionately represented here.
I wonder if this is represents the demographics of the B12 community as a whole, or if INTJ's and INTP's are especially drawn to personality tests.

I wonder if there is a test for that...

Comparatively borderline in all but one case, i see.

[Shakerag]

I've consistently tested as INTJ as well.  Hilariously, my significant other typically comes up ENTJ.  We're a comedy duo*. 


* A blatant lie.

Well, that's quite logical.

E will prefer people to videogame. Most videogame players are Introverts. And, moreover, only introverts can have enough time (alone) to dedicate 50 hours for DF (just for the basis of the game).
the probability of seeing a E*** in Dwarf fortress is very limited, because most of them won't have enough TIME to play this game. . The only one who could find this rewarding are NT ("rationnal" types") like ENTP or ENTJ.I type ENTP, but i'm quite close to INTP, and anyway "E"NTP are the most introvert extrovert type (not because they prefer to be alone, but because they don't like most people in general).


N (intuition) isn't very surprising. N is all about the capacity of mastering and liking systems (and, associated with Thinking, intellectuel systems) and the capacity of abstraction and imagination. And...DF is ALL about system, and imagination, and abstraction. I wouldn't be surprised that Toady himself would be INTJ or INTP or something in between. Some "S" are also more conservative and perhaps won't be interested in a game very different from what is supposed to be a videogame. People with "S" in this forum aren't very "S", anyway (1%, 12%, I haven't seen anything stronger than 25%).
It doesn't mean S are dumb and conservative (this is something you can read about S from some "N" people who haven't fully understood this model). For example, if INTP are rationnal who like abstraction and complex system, ISTP are their counterpart in practical systems. My father is some kind of genius with cars, electricity, painting, constructing things. This is ISTP. But "S" + "J" CAN be obsessed with control, organisation, and correctness. This can be people who will find DF rewarding.

Thinking more than Feeling. Well, it's probably the only axis where there is a significant different between men and women (due to education). And...there are much more men, here. However, I saw somebody with a INFP profile somewhere in the topic, so you should change your data. But, anyway, this game is very intellectual.

At last, J and P...I think that both could find DF interesting. J because you must be very organized to appreciate this game. And that you have to be very focused to actually PLAY this game (many P will find hard to remain focused, and while finding this game fascinating, will quit). On the other hand, "P" will probably like the fact that the game is huge, with a lot of possibilities.

[pisskop]

DF requires a mood to play.  For me.  At least with dedication.  So I suppose you are correct.

[Eagle_eye]

INTP
Introvert(100%)  iNtuitive(88%)  Thinking(50%)  Perceiving(22)%

Not surprising, really. What's odd is that I took one of these three years ago, and I'm pretty sure this is the exact same result.
