Do tags/traits reflect one's own true character?

I'm just glad no one here gave themselves the "Sex Appeal" trait. That would have been horribly wrong.

Lets see if we can get others in this thread. I bet anyone who's ever came to this forum has got something to add here.

Sincerely,
The Vault Dweller

You people need to stop and think about what the score 10 signifies before giving yourselves 10s or 9s in any subject

And honestly, how many amongst us really deserves to be called "Gifted"?

10 signifies 'heroic' and 9 'excellent'. I believe that the stats I determined are not that far off reality within the SPECIAL system (not SPECIL Kahgan). According to upper-middle-class parents, their children are always gifted and talented, but compared to the average person, I believe that I really am gifted in many areas. The trait is unfair I know, but what are you going to do?

I must admit that my sneak skill would also be quite high. I also have this "why do you sneak on us?" "whaa?" It´s not my fault you people are deaf!

Yes, but we don't give them any warning, so such reactions are to be expected. I also have a habit of clicking and pacing when I should stay in one small area, which annoys people, while I like to walk quickly and directly if I have to get somewhere.
 
True, but when I was young kid I did practise to move without sound :D Yeap, I think it was somewhere close to "teenage mutant ninja turtles" and "American Ninja" movies. Seems like it did work though. It?s not that hard to run or jump without making too much sound.

A word of wisdom: Don?t sneak on dogs or animals.

I have a friend who would have a sneak skill of 20% but he tries every single day to sneak up on me...he can't even do it in the school hallways clogged full of people.

Na, just balance yourself and walk by putting one foot directly where the last one was. You can walk pretty fast and be COMPLETLY silent.
 
Sneaking. Yup, in nature you just walk your own footprints. Basically you only make noise from one foot. Of course you have to check were the hell your walking (no sticks etc.). Indoors it?s easy. When jumping and such you just need to flex and dampen then jump with you knees. You might hear a crack from the knee, but it works :)

Sneaking on dogs is fairly easy.

Just think you are a very large, very heavy ballerina.

maybe it's because my dog freaks out too much...me and my friends we'll all just be hanging out she'll be sleeping, all of a sudden she jumps up runs around the house like twice, grabs one of her dog toys and then just swings it around like a madman and all this happens in like 4 seconds so we have no idea what's going on

Simply not true. While you can sneak up to a sleeping dog and fast-sleeping cats, it's impossible to actually sneak up to a cat, though it might let you think you're doing so, as well as a large number of animals.

Domesticated animals might be easier because they tend to be dumb and placid. They'll either be old and deaf or hear you coming and not care.

Wild animals; not a chance.

Also: "Na, just balance yourself and walk by putting one foot directly where the last one was."

If you're constantly just putting your left foot in the place of your right and vice versa, how do you move anywhere?

Action point!

Well, your body would absorb the sugars, carbohydrates, flavoring, corn syrup, etc. Piss is all the crap your body doesnt absorb/need. Even if you filtered it you would still be drinking bodily waste...

Highly sterilized body waste, however!!
 
Well, like I said in my earlier post, I thought it would
be interesting to try and play as one of you. :lol: I
also started up a game playing as myself, but I only
just started that. I am in the Temple of Trials, at
the moment.

Alec, you were right, you wouldn't make it passed Klamath. :twisted:
I was fighting the rats in Trapper Town, with Sulik, when I
critically missed, and killed myself.

If anyone else finds this interesting, I'll update
you either later tonight, or tomorrow on my
progress.
