I'm a mad scientist, just like Steinitz. I kinda disagree though, but whatever. :)

Nice! I'm jealous, I'm... a barbarian -_- lol. Yeah, the first time I took it, I was rather half hearted and my result was literally my exact opposite but i did it a second time and it seemed more legit (well, i AM a barbarian even if I don't like it, lol)

Hi, Amethyst,

My personality seems to be a technician. i would not disagree.

thank you.

On 2nd thought, I think that quiz is right. I seem to rather play simple positions than complicated positions. I rather try to simplify for a win than attack for a win. I still disagree with the opening choices. :)

I'm a magician, the funny thing is I picked Tal as my emulate when I started playing chess.

Escape artist like Korchnoi!  that was fun - never thought of having a chess personality .  In the miniscule amount of games I have played though I do have a higher win percentage playing as black, so kind of makes sense.

Well, I'm pretty sure Nakamura would eat Alekhine and Lasker alive today so there is that!

I've taken it a few times and sometimes my answers change but I always get Escape Artist.

The trick of this test is that by allowing you and your fantasy to compare yourself to some chess Greats,it momentarily makes you forget you are basically a patzer..Nicely done,kinda like astrology..
