ISTJ- heavy on the Judging, apparently.

Make of that what you will...

I'm ESFJ

Heavy on the E and F

Yep sounds like me.

And what if you could answer yes to all depending on mood?

Yes, Mith, I agree, which is why I said this in my first post...

What I'm really trying to do, I suppose, is look for tools to analyse and explain the different ways we all have of playing the game, the methods we all use to try to reach a solution...the quiz above is not ideal, I know, but it's as good a way as any I could think of...

I decided to take it again, since it's been awhile.

Apparently, it's still:

Introverted: 56

iNtuitive: 75

Thinking: 88

Judging: 11

I thought I might have changed a bit, but I guess it's just a frame of mind that has developed. Oh well, I still enjoy playing and learning about everyone else far more. If there ever could be a better outlet in which people ruthlessly are thrown off a cliff of cover to show their true means and colours to their personality, it's Werewolf.

INTJ, just about every time I take one of these things.

I guess the T comes through, since I try to be one of the logic and contingency planners in Werewolf. But so does the 'N.' A lot of what gets my attention and then brings down the analysis is based on gut feeling. So both.

I've always described myself as closet a extravert.

ISFJ (44, 1, 75, 56 respectively). Got that, too, on the first link.

It's all case-to-case, really...but in Werewolf I do tend to feel more than think my way through.

But isn't a combination of S and F a bit contradictory?

Good question, here's some answers (maybe):

Quote:

ST - Sensing-Thinking Types - Stress systematic decision making with quantitative, not qualitative data (Nutt, 1986). They establish order, set up control and manage with certainty (Mitroff & Mitroff, 1980). They prefer tasks that are structured and prefer to take very few risks. There is a focus on immediate problems, the quick fix, and the use of standard producers and playing by the rules. STs dive into the details and look for specifics and some say to find step-by-step progress (Haley & Stumpf, 1989; Haley, 1997). Once set with a decision, doubt and opposition do not deter them, and they may resist a reanalysis.

SF - Sensing-Feeling Types - these are people oriented decision makers. They welcome people's opinions, and concentrate on qualitative and more affective and evaluative information. More concerned with facts about people that about things. Short term focus on problems of today, but only with human implications. Harmony is preferred and they are quick to reconcile interpersonal differences (Haley & Stumpf, 1989; Haley, 1997).

NT - iNtuitive-Thinking Types (Visionaries) - focus on nonlinear problems and studying patterns in the data (Nutt, 1986). Head for the more general information rather then the details and specifics. Prefer analysis, but will make bold intuitive leaps into the unknown. More long-range in their thinking and strategic plans. Not big on implementation. Will dive into a complex problem and try to organize them into simpler ones. Can be quite idealistic and even impersonal, and will ignore the nay sayers around them (Haley & Stumpf, 1989; Haley, 1997).

NF - iNtuitive-Feeling Types (Catalysts) - focus on judgment and experience, and portraying their own personal views as the facts (Nutt, 1986). There are few rules in their decision-making and they rely on intuitive perception. They will construct open ended, non-linear, and ill-defined problems and seek fresh, human possibilities. More focus on the broad themes than on specifics and seek longer-term goals. May test their hunches

Some of these strategies sound quite familiar....
