So.

I had so much fun with the Which Lord of the Rings Villain Are You? (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?p=458306) test that I simply could not resist exploring the lighter side of things...

Ever wondered who your hobbit alter ego may be? Find out by taking the

So I'm Frodo...

Odd, I was totally expecting to get Merry... book Merry, that is.

So, is there a connection between getting Saruman and getting Frodo? I'm curious to see what the other Sarumans get...

There seems to be one, Formendacil.... I also got Saruman and Frodo.

I was actually hoping for Good ol' Bilbo, but Frodo is not too bad... as long as it is book Frodo.

Formen - I got a Saruman/Frodo combo also. The description for Frodo fits me a lot better than the one for Saruman, though... and I already knew that I am a lot like Frodo, with some traits of Merry. Most personality quizzes peg me at Frodo.

Hahaha! I got Lotho! I actually got Lotho Pimple. And I'm inexplicably proud :D

Ho there, fellow Sam Gamgee's!

04-06-2006, 04:32 PM
I am Sam as well! I was suspecting Pippin, but I guess I could see myself as Sam, just a little more gabby.

Merry... and Sauron. Hehe...

I got.... Ted Sandyman:

You are an unpopular sort of fellow with narrow horizons and limited views. You don't have much because you don't want much, being very comfortable in that rut you've been caught in most of your life.

Nice. :rolleyes:

I think more of myself as Diamond. I didn't leave the Shire but I appreciated Pippin's adventurous spirit enough to marry him.

:p

And I am also Meriadoc

04-06-2006, 04:43 PM
HA! I'm the first Pippin!!

Peregrin Took
You are 53% Insular, 61% Sociable, and 38% Cupiditous!
You are a bit flighty but steadfast and friendly in the very best of ways. You tend to rely on your friends' greater wisdom and guidance, and that's all right with you so long as each day ends with a party. You can give way to temptation, but you usually know where to draw the line.
Fun test, Fordim! Scarily enough, this actually describes me pretty well.

Apparently, I'm a fool of a Took...

Alcarillo
04-06-2006, 04:54 PM
I'm Lotho Pimple, and Saruman from the villain test.
You are a nasty piece of work. You are open to other places and people, but not always for the best of purposes. You tend not to be very friendly or welcoming to others, but you don't really mind as you're not all that fond of other people.

Kath
04-06-2006, 04:57 PM
Me too Alc, you wanna go hire some thugs and enslave the rest of this lot?

Alcarillo
04-06-2006, 05:01 PM
Sure! I say we team up with the Ted Sandymans and modernize this weedpatch of a Shire, bring it into the Seventh Age, you know. ;)

Kath
04-06-2006, 05:08 PM
And you can even use your alter-ego to run things :D

Ooo!! Go Pippin! Yay!! As well as Shelob in the Villain poll!! :D

You are a bit flighty but steadfast and friendly in the very best of ways. You tend to rely on your friends' greater wisdom and guidance, and that's all right with you so long as each day ends with a party. You can give way to temptation, but you usually know where to draw the line.

That actually describes me pretty much perfectly...

Another Saruman/Frodo combination reporting here.
Frodo Baggins
You are 30% Insular, 61% Sociable, and 15% Cupiditous!

You are friendly and open with almost everyone you meet, albiet in a quiet way. You love your home but the world is a wide place and you want to know and experience everything you can about it. You think of others before yourself at almost every turn.

You scored higher than 50% on Insular
You scored higher than 99% on Sociable
You scored higher than 0% on Cupiditous

I like this result a little better than being Saruman, I must say. :D

04-06-2006, 06:54 PM
Lobelia S-B
You are 53% Insular, 30% Sociable, and 46% Cupiditous!
You are an unfriendly, grasping sort of person. You don't have many friends because you tend to approach people the way you do everything -- looking for the advantage to yourself. Your saving grace is that you care for other people whom you do feel close to, and you are willing to defend them should the need arise. :eek:

I was rather expecting Bilbo ...

Well, I seem to be the only Ted Sandyman so far. Heh.

04-06-2006, 08:18 PM
Im very Pippinish, but more serious and most of us Id say would have more of a clue to whats going on if we were in the Fellowship. o_0 So that makes me a Merry. Id definatly push Legolas off a hill once and bug the crap out of Gandalf asking about the Entwives, his other wizard friends, and the Valar of course. ;)

I'm another Frodo Baggins :D

It says I'm 23% Insular, 61% Sociable, and 7% Cupiditous.

I think that results rather fitting *nod* I'm social enough..... :p

Elu Ancalime
04-06-2006, 11:22 PM
You are 23% Insular, 69% Sociable, and 15% Cupiditous!

Formen, Im a Frodo too. (Sauruman also)

SpM, how are you 129% :D

Good question... I think (and I have to ask how it's possible) that I can up with three 99%s, though I forget the categories...

04-07-2006, 02:03 AM
Whoa. No way. I'm Saruman-Lobelia.

*takes the test again*

Okay, so I'm really Lobelia. 53% Insular, 46% Sociable, 53% Cupiditous. Fine, fine - I admit it was quite appropriate.

i haven't done the villian one but i got pippin :D
funnily enough my friends at school call me a fool of a took!! :eek:

04-07-2006, 04:07 AM
right sorry for the double post :D i did the villian test and got saruman
Did anyone else get this combo?

Mithalwen
04-07-2006, 05:56 AM
I was Meriadoc and so the first Merry-Saruman? Did they bond over that bag of pipeweed. I was surprised I came out as being so sociable - but then I guess that when they asked about Friday nights out with friends they didn't mean being on MSN messenger in a cyber cafe? :p

the guy who be short
04-07-2006, 06:23 AM
Mith - I'm also a Merry-Saruman, and was equally surprised by my high sociability. I mean, what sort of person tries to weed their way out of going to a concert? I think it was probably the cake question that did it...

So, I'll leave it to somebody else to compile a list of the Baddie-Hobbit combos and see which ones are most prominent.

well friend us ted sandyman are awesome Im Ted Sandyman(which makes sense with the description given)

04-07-2006, 08:40 AM
Obviously Kath and Acarillo have
discerning tastes. Another Lotho here.
I'm obviously friendly and welcoming to Kath and Acarillo.
As for the rest of you lot! :mad: :p

Lotho Pimple
You are 7% Insular, 23% Sociable, and 46% Cupiditous!
You are a nasty piece of work. You are open to other places and people, but not always for the best of purposes. You tend not to be very friendly or welcoming to others, but you don't really mind as you're not all that fond of other people.

P.S. Apparently I relate to Saruman, Dumbledore, and Lotho! :eek:

Oddwen
04-07-2006, 09:41 AM
I'm a Sam!

So...I'm a Sam/Shelob. Does anyone else sense disaster here?

Samwise Gamgee
You are 92% Insular, 53% Sociable, and 15% Cupiditous!

You are the salt of the earth. You enjoy all the simple pleasures of
life and want to share those with your friends and family. You are
quite content where you are and have no desire to go anywhere else. You
frequently have the mistaken impression that people like you far better
than you deserve. I wish I could meet you in person.

You scored higher than 99% on Insular
You scored higher than 25% on Sociable
You scored higher than 0% on Cupiditous

04-07-2006, 09:49 AM
I apparently am just not a nice guy, ted sandyman/gollum according to both Ima loner and dont like other people taking my stuff

Cailín
04-07-2006, 12:33 PM
I just took both tests and I am a Shelob / Merry.

Especially Shelob seems to fit. :cool:

And, with the risk of sounding foolish... what is cupiditous? It must be something extremely dirty or violent cause it is not in my kiddy dictionary.

Kath
04-07-2006, 03:13 PM
According to my dictionary it means being greedy for gain. Ah! That explains Lotho :D

Meela
04-07-2006, 03:56 PM
I'm a Frodo. I was usually a Pippin on the Hobbit tests, but thinking about it, I am more like Frodo than I thought I was.

Firefoot
04-07-2006, 04:24 PM
SpM, how are you 129% Good question... I think (and I have to ask how it's possible) that I can up with three 99%s, though I forget the categories... The percents are individual factors, not parts of a whole. They're meant to compare you to other people who have taken the test. Hence (to quote Oddwen's, the nearest at hand), "You scored higher than 25% on Sociable" - she's more social than 25% of people who had taken the quiz. I think it narrows it to people in your age group. So that's why the people who took the test first got all 99%'s.

Just because I don't have anything else to do... the combos of Baddies/Hobbits:

................Frodo.........Merry..........Pippi n.........Sam........Ted.........Lotho.........Lob elia.......Bilbo
Saruman.....IIIII.............II.................I I...........................................II.... ..........I
Sauron........IIIII...........III................. ................................II................ ..............I
Gollum............................................ .................II...............I
Shelob...........................I...............I ...............III..........................I..... ............I

Your saving grace is that you care for other people whom you do feel close to, and you are willing to defend them should the need arise.

So I'm Shelob/Lobelia/Luna Lovegood? Hehehe!

Um...what the heck is 'Cupiditous'? :eek:

Now get off my front path, you varmints, or I'll clobber you with my brolly!

Please take away any rings that I may possess.. except my class ring. *shifty eyes*

According to my dictionary it means being greedy for gain.

That's why there are moths in my purse! I must have lived in Yorkshire for far too long... ;) I answered honestly to the thing about presentses, bet that's where I fell down. Now I love giving presents, but let's be honest, we all love getting them even more!

Stop press - davem is Shelob/Lobelia/Dumbledore...

We can sit and share our evil, insular, greedy ways together...*evil mua-ha-ha*

Diamond18
04-07-2006, 04:57 PM
Actually I quite honestly answered that I like seeing someone open a present from me best. :) This is because I sometimes go to great length planning and preparing said present and my reward is seeing it go over well. When I open up presents I'm always so self-conscious, and really anything my heart truly desires I most likely already bought for myself. :p

I answered that I have friends from many countries and ethnic background (thanks to the internet, wink wink) and other things rather un Ted Sandyman-like so it seems the thing that gave me such an unsavory result was my propensity to spend quiet evenings at home rather than par-tay, and pay more attention to local news. :rolleyes:

I do like silver spoons.

Nice test, Fordhim. I thought I'd remind everyone that there is a personality test on the main site: http://www.barrowdowns.com/personality.php

I don't recall if we had a thread dedicated to results.
* EDIT * Here is a thread about the older personality test (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?t=5480) .

Diamond18
04-07-2006, 08:44 PM
B-W, I thought that when I had taken that test I got Samwise. But as I can't find a post of mine in that thread, I can't remember for sure. Which probably explains the second part of the result I just got:

Based on your answers, you are most like
Gandalf

You were also very much like
Barliman Butterbur

So, I seem to be a combination of Sauron, Gandalf, Ted Sandyman, and Barliman Butterbur.

Interesting.

Frodo Baggins
04-08-2006, 12:27 PM
wow.. I am Lobelia Sackville-Baggins..... I didn't realize I was that grasping and devious, or 0% sociable. :eek: :confused: :(

Hilde Bracegirdle
04-08-2006, 12:47 PM
Don't worry Diamond18, another Ted Sandyman has appeared! And a Sauron too! I'm off to try fishing for another answer. (EDIT: Changing just two questions, produced Sam. Quite a switch.)

As a rather fun side note, my daughter's result was Sam, and her best friend? Why Frodo, of course. :D

Oddwen
04-08-2006, 08:48 PM
They're meant to compare you to other people who have taken the test. Hence (to quote Oddwen's, the nearest at hand), "You scored higher than 25% on Sociable" - she's more social than 25% of people who had taken the quiz.
Actually, that's the percentage within your age group. I scored higher than 25% of other 21-year-olds.

Well, that would explain the 99%s... I was probably the first 'Downer to take the test...

Same here Form. But let's pretend that's not why we got those scores, and continue to believe that it's just because we're smart :cool:

Holbytlass
04-09-2006, 07:23 AM
I'm Samwise Gamgee. No big surprise there, with fair amount of kids and homebody tendencies!

I do wish there was a third option on the giving/getting presents: like both equally!

You are 84% Insular, 84% Sociable, and 30% Cupiditous!
You are the salt of the earth. You enjoy all the simple pleasures of life and want to share those with your friends and family. You are quite content where you are and have no desire to go anywhere else. You frequently have the mistaken impression that people like you far better than you deserve. I wish I could meet you in person.

For Firefoot: I was Gollum. Heh-heh, hobbit all the way but definitely good at times and mean at times.

Lalaith
04-09-2006, 11:48 AM
I was Sauron, now I'm Frodo.
And I was 0% insular, so I'm not sure I'm any kind of hobbit at all....

Thinlómien
04-15-2006, 05:34 AM
I seem to have some kind of protagonist-syndrome; first I got Sauron, then Frodo. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one, though. :D

04-15-2006, 04:15 PM
That was a lot of fun, I really enjoyed both tests. I got Shelob and Sam! :D

I found out that I would be

Peregrin Took
You are 61% Insular, 61% Sociable, and 38% Cupidinous!
You are a bit flighty but steadfast and friendly in the very best of ways. You tend to rely on your friends' greater wisdom and guidance, and that's all right with you so long as each day ends with a party. You can give way to temptation, but you usually know where to draw the line.

I tend to agree with most of this statement, and I was Saruman in the Evil test :eek:

Durelin
05-10-2006, 08:51 AM
Frodo and Shelob...what a pair.

" You are 15% Insular, 61% Sociable, and 7% Cupidinous!
You are friendly and open with almost everyone you meet, albiet in a quiet way. You love your home but the world is a wide place and you want to know and experience everything you can about it. You think of others before yourself at almost every turn."

Yes, I am incredibly friendly to everyone, and I always invite them in, maybe even feed them, but only to fatten them up. And then, I eat. I always share, though...

It's those quiet ones you have to watch out for.

And strange, even taking the personality test on the site at least two (possibly more) years after when I first took it, I still get the same result (yes, I remembered):

"Based on your answers, you are most like
Legolas

You were also very much like
Aragorn"

Mmm, lembas.
