Can you tell the difference? 7/10 here. -------------------- If you've been mod-o-fied, It's an illusion, and you're in-between. Don't you be tarot-fied, It's just alot of nothing, so what can it mean? ~Frank Zappa Sins exist only for people who are on the Way or approaching the Way |

6/10 here. Very funny. Oh, and Silverlance, you'd be number 11, I think.

9/10, based completely on whether the picture they chose looked like they thought you should think they were normal (= they're really a serial killer) or deranged (= they're really a computer geek).

 I actually got 9 / 10, seeing as I had seen a few faces in various old dev books (like the first guy.) But shotgun massacres go hand in hand with professional software engineering anyhow, so I suppose that really should be a 10.

I got 7/10, completely by guessing. I didn't recognize any faces.

Am I the only one who noticed the background contains listings of BASIC code? It's the classical "I'll guess what you're thinking of" program, too, which, judging from the use of "LET" statements and "GO TO" goto statements, is from an early (TRS-80...? Or maybe VIC-20...) version of BASIC... printed with what's obviously an ink printer, rather than a dot matrix printer.
Something very fishy is in the works here. -------------------- "Judge not a man by his thoughts and words, but by the quality and quantity of liquor in his possession and the likelyhood of him sharing." |

9/10 here as well. I get a bonus point for actually having invented a programming language.

Believe it or not, I got a 10/10. I don't really know how I did it, since I wasn't familiar with any of them except for the Son of Sam. I guess I have a knack for distinguishing computer nerds from cold-blooded killers. Or maybe I just got lucky.

Quote (WildHalcyon @ 5th June 2006 13:39) I get a bonus point for actually having invented a programming language. Obfuscated, no less, IIRC. Best kind. I once wrote one that had only two (!!) instructions. Admittedly it was excessively basic, but it impressed a lot of people at work until they figured it out. Well, that's kind of off-topic, but I still think Wildy and I are psychopathic murderers who haven't realized it yet. ;D -------------------- "Judge not a man by his thoughts and words, but by the quality and quantity of liquor in his possession and the likelyhood of him sharing." |

7/10.
Considering that people have generally gotten better than 5/10 (which would be statistically average), I don't think their comparison is entirely that great. Try comparing something else. -------------------- Check the "What games are you playing at the moment?" thread for updates on what I've been playing. You can find me on the Fediverse!

Hmm, too many people that work where I work are bald. I am also a software developer as well, and I'm probably going in that direction. Very odd quiz...
