Player Types is back!
But this time... It's personal-ity.

So I'm a bit of a psychology nerd. Anyone else out there share that?
I'd be fascinated to see the distribution of types in this game. So vote for your Myers-Briggs type! Then, if you could kindly leave a reply with your MBTI type and a brief outline of your diplomatic style, general attitude in-game, and your spirit fish (see, viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1000&)
If you don't know your Myers-Briggs, you can head here
Ex.

INTP

I'm a somewhat amiable player. I don't take the game too seriously, but I will do whatever I can to win. Priority #1 is always fun for me, but "fun" for me means a tactically interesting war. I try to never play the same way twice, using a new strategy over a good strategy every time. I'm closest to a Piranha, but I also have Octopus and Dolphin tendencies.

Um... This is pretty much me, in both aspects.

3 votes, 3 INT - though I consider myself a J. (And technically, I find myself somewhere in between I-E and S-N.)

Here's a handy TL:DR picture.

Well, that's not that handy, since it is so small - but, damn the quota.

There. That one is much better.

I'm an ISFJ. Although, looking at mm1's pic there, I'd put myself more on the logical side. I think my results are a bit messed up. And my player type, definitely piranha with some shark thrown in. I'm always attacking, or looking for someone to attack. Even when I turtle (which I hate doing) I still find ways to take a few outposts here and there.

INFP- I don't know how accurate it can be- My in game persona is definitely different from my public persona.

Yeah, I couldn't make a poll with 16 options, so I cut out the last letter. It has the least impact on attitude of the 4 categories. It's still too bad, though.
