[QUOTE="Serpentine, post: 861958, member: 11738"] INTP - slight preference for P, but in the presence of P-types I'll be a hardcore J. Someone's got to do all the planning and make sure the work gets done. Also, I seem to get stuck as DM even though I'd prefer to play, and I write out all my notes beforehand.
