I didn't mean that addiction is worse than violence in general .. but worse than violence in games! a dependence, on games, implies that you don't have time to (or won't spend time on) do(ing) anything else, that you use most of your time playing, and thereby miss out on your actual life .. just playing from time to time and still being able to live a perfectly normal life hardly categorizes you as an addicted gamer! It's a serious affliction imo .. and one that should recieve the same attention as any other addiction! since any obsession leads to a greater need, which in turn leads to far worse ramifications ..

watch the classic "A Clockwork Orange" by Stanley Kubrick

yes .. tic-tac-toe (did a search) .. our name makes more sense! "Kryds (cross) og Bolle (bun or circle)" where 'bolle' also means to f*** .. so that adds an extra dimension to the game .. hehe

^ I would guess you are referring to Mount Rushmore? the faces are: Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Theodore Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln

well it still only measures your logic and ability to recognize patterns .. so all other kinds are neglected .. if he's simply quick to grasp a situation and/r can think extremely fast, but not particularly logical, he will probably only score an average on this test ..

hah .. oh I remember those times were I would draw like a thousand stickmen during a week with a buddy from school (would completly fill an A3 page in a day).. never took it that far though! played alot of 3d .. hmm .. called "crosses and cirkels X/O" in danish ... three in a row .. anyway .. it actually sounds quite fun that game of yours! :D

true .. at least the developers should be commended for bothering to make patches in the first place! but I was just saying that it's not always a good sign that a game has 140 patches!

no no Alex is great .. just the neo-nazi remark was funny, when you have an avatar of a guy who's favorite activities include a bit of the good old ultra-violence, rape and Ludwig Van ..

or suffering from a severe case of "Leonardo Da Vinci" for that matter!

I have been living in a state of near death coma since I learned it would be released in february .. so I think I can wait a few days more .. this reality is really neat ..

well if everyone posted screenshots this thread would be kinda drowned .. but I don't think people would lie about scoring 100-120 etc .. but those saying "weeh ey scrode 180 I ruck!" might .. (or just suffer from a rather severe case of dyslexia of course)

I think every roleplaying geek has wondered what his/hers own stats are .. ^_^ We had a good discussion about violence in games some time ago .. http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=27969&hl= My main problem is addiction to VG .. because that is more serious than violence imo!

well colours don't play a part of the test .. I'm colorblind for instance! what it measures is your ability to recognize patterns, and how fast you do it, then you get you IQ (read logic/pattern finding) score based on correct answers and time..

well if I said that I would be calling myself stupid too .. so I won't do that! no worry " no they are not all like that .. most are math related questions or tricky riddles .. but since there are alot of different people, from different nationalities, here I decided to use one who only had symbols and no text!

number of patches just show how unbalanced/buggy a game was to being with ..

^ says the guy with Alex as an avatar!! :D

it seems all the scandinavians are getting the highest scores .. hehe

I'm not defending Uwe Boll here, the man's a hack and has commited more crimes against gamers than Paul W.S. Anderson and Courtney Solomon combined, but you, sir, are an ignorant, generalizing bastard. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> no no .. I think he's on to something! it's like the translated movies in Germany! they suck too .. Germans should stick to expanding the fields of philosophy and psychology! oh and making good beer! hmm they should stop making music too!! yes stop everything in the entertainment industry!! and start focusing on what you are good at: like making cars, beer, theories of mindboggling proportions etc.

jow jow! .. Viborgenser/Ikastbo her, s

huh er du dansk?? I thought I was the only one here .. no but since it's so hard to determine what really gives us these 'abilities' it's also hard to say what the exact nature of it is .. Logic seems to be the most easy to recognize and measure, so until we "find" the others, we will have to live with that as the measurement of intelligence ..

^ very true .. but it's still fun to stretch the mind a bit from time to time! and I like this particular one, as it allows everyone to participate, no matter what nationality! no text, just figures .. but then it's hard to measure intelligence, as we don't even truly know what it completely is yet! or how we 'get' it .. so even the 'paper ones' are still just the theoretical best shot at it ..

It's only the last 3 that I can't figure out .. their logic totally eludes me!

most people will do it in 10-20 minutes I think .. and I found it both fun and relaxing! lol ..

you got that because you scored the first half right, and then completed the test very fast .. Even if you are completly wrong from 20 and to the end you don't fall below 100 since most ordinary people won't be able to do them either! (100-110 = average)

haha .. I saw it a long time ago! but no TV-station (even today .. anywhere) would EVER show that if it was an acutal children's program .. perhaps as a satirical part of an adult one, but never the former!
