What makes a sucessful gamer?

Desire to win, compulsive competitive disorder, Achievement junkie?

Or rich and board.


Or is there another category

Have you ever heard of the Bartle Test (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartle_Test)?

It looks at certain behaviors and classifies you as a certain type of Gamer. It's fairly interesting. You can take the test here (http://www.gamerdna.com/quizzes/bartle-test-of-gamer-psychology/take?cobrand=).

Did the test a couple of times.

I choose the same answers each time. But the end result was different each time i did the test.

The only thing that didnt change was the "Socializer at 7%". I would show it here but i do not make accounts for stuff like that.

Danish, you can use www.tinypic.com to host pics without actually making an account (or screenshot the image and crop it, which is what I did.) ;)
