What kind of gamer are you?

[Saracenus]

Yeah, no surprises here. I don't need simulation but I do like internal consistency from my DMs.

You Scored as TacticianYou're probably a military buff who wants to have the chance to think through complex problems. You want the rules, and your GM's interpretation of them, to match up what happens in the real world or at least be consistent. You want challenging yet logical obstacles to overcome.

You Scored as Butt-KickerYou like a streightforward combat character. After a long day at the office, you want to clobber foes and once more prove your superiority over all who would challenge you.

Interesting. I had to answer a tie-breaker question.

You Scored as Method Actor
You think that gaming is a form of creative expression. You may view rules as, at best, a necessary evil, preferring sessions where the dice never come out of the bag. You enjoy situations that test or deepen your character's personality traits.

Here's mine:

You Scored as StorytellerYou're more inclined toward the role playing side of the equation and less interested in numbers or experience points. You're quick to compromise if you can help move the story forward, and get bored when the game slows down for a long planning session. You want to play out a story that moves like it's orchestrated by a skilled novelist or film director.

Most of those questions don't make sense for my situation at all. When I had my own interpretation I used it rather than the one implied. For example, my specialty is playing me.

But here's another thing about these tests:

If I take the test from a DM's perspective it spits out a completely different set of numbers:
