So if you all don't know the Myers Briggs personality typing thing, check it out. It's pretty cool. For those who do understand it, what do you think is the best type for chess. I know INTJ's are the stereotypical strategic masterminds, but the other types have their strengths too, which I would assume come out as different playing styles etc. I myself always test as either INTJ or INFJ and would say that my playing style reflects that: I try to unlock the other players strategies and repeatedly poke holes through their system while I develop my own master plan to oppose theirs. What are your types and how would you say they affect your playing style? Or other chess players you know? Are any types just not cut out to play chess (ESFP)? Thanks for your input! Jack
