The INTP personality type is fairly rare, making up only three percent of the population, which is definitely a good thing for them, as there's nothing they'd be more unhappy about than being "plebian". INTPs pride themselves on their inventiveness and creativity, their unique perspective and vigorous intellect. Usually known as the philosopher, the architect, or the shitposter, INTPs have been responsible for many cheeki bants throughout history.
The Unexamined Life Is Not Worth Living
INTPs are known for their rehashed theories and unrelenting shitposts – in fact, they are considered the most logically precise of all the navy seal snipers.

They love dubs, and spotting discrepancies between statements could almost be described as a hobby, making it a bad idea to lie to an INTP. This makes it ironic that INTPs' word should always be taken with a grain of salt – it's not that they are dishonest, but people with the INTP personality type tend to shitpost thoughts that are not fully developed, using others as a sounding board for ideas and theories in a debate against themselves rather than as actual conversation partners.

This may make them appear unreliable, but in reality you are correct – don't expect punctual progress reports. People who share the INTP personality type aren't interested in practical, day-to-day activities and maintenance, but when they find an environment where their tactical genius and deep strike potential can be expressed, there is no limit to the time and baneblades INTPs will expend in developing an insightful and >unbiased solution.

Heh.
Is it weird, then, that there are at least 3 INTP's already?

Well, LW was very nearly ENTP, and I'm not too far from INFP. Bay12 seems to attract a lot of these sorts for some reason, though. Probably DF-related.

INTP not actually that logical, considering that their example is holding a sample of a chemical solution which is reacting unusually about four inches above their face. :V

Oh this thing. I got INTJ, although only the I vs E had more then a 5% preference either way[I vs E was something like 45% in favour of I, which was substantially less then last time I took this thing. Spooky.].

Myers-Briggs is about as scientific as voodoo, alchemy or economics but I gave this a whirl.

Got ISTJ-A.  I'm extremely introverted but I already knew that.  The other three qualities don't deviate that much from the middle, so they could go any way depending on my mood on a particular day.

Is there anyone here who is an extrovert?

INTP-A. Seems mostly accurate.

I got INTJ and INTP. I usually take these things a few times to get a better idea of what my responses are. Although the article seemed to match me fairly closely at places, I was annoyed by the horoscopey writing in some places. Out of curiosity, I looked at the premium things for several different personalities and found that most were similar and shared many phrases (the INTJ and INTP pages were designed to be different but were very similar to each other). I also looked at the premium advertisement page for ESFP (probably the total opposite of me) and still found things that describe me. It was less accurate, of course, but it was still a reminder that there really isn't a good reason to trust that this website has useful explanations of each personality type.

Edit: Also, marking a neutral response for everything doesn't give a neutral result at the end, suggesting some kind of bias.

I got INTP-T.
Don't have time to read more details right now, so I am unsure what the "T" stands for.

Got INFP-T as well.

I feel like this is a pretty well-worded one. However, a lot of times on these kinds of test I'm stumped as to how I should answer: What I say I believe, or what I actually implement in day-to-day life.
Exactly. I am fanatically attached to order and organization, and yet you could hardly tell by looking at my room. If I get going, I can organize for days, but it can get bothersome. This is obviously why I play DF: organization without the real-world hassle.

I got INTP-T on this one. While I am highly skeptical of Myers-Briggs (I've taken it before on different sites, with different results, and I'm aware that there's little evidence to support its categorizations), I have to admit that some bits of the description were painfully accurate.
