Test that says what kind of player you are. Fun.

      You scored as Storyteller. You'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.

Storyteller 92%

Tactician 58%

Specialist 58%

Method Actor 58%

Butt-Kicker 42%

Casual Gamer 33%

Power Gamer 25%
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

The coolest thing I've seen done to a telemarketer ever.  The male side of the conversation is a program playing a set of wave files to a caller the computer identified as "out of area"

The concept page of the device used is here:http://www.pagerealm.com/tc2k/

The best part is the testimonials section, particularly the Spanish quote:
"Esto es muy malo. No trabaja. Me engaƱan!" -Toraidio Smith, Tijuana

Translation:
"This is very bad.  It doesn't work.  They deceived me!"
"Never argue with a fool; they'll bring you down to their level, and then beat you with experience."

I think the best part is the order online button.  Click it. It's hysterical.
