| WOW. I guess I don't know myself at all! I rated myself 8 out of 10 and came out around 3 on the scale. There were some items where I had no particular feeling or I felt it didn't apply, so perhaps that was a factor. Anyway, still love the hobby so (...)

| (...) WOOT! 0.23/10. not even making it to one. I would like to thank the countless baseplates and bricks cut, my love of the clickits double ended joiner, and Brasso for this outstanding achivement. Thank you one and all. Aaron A (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) Alright, I sneakily changed how it calculates things behind-the-scenes, so... you're still low, but not *AS* low. Basically, I was using a weighted average and a straightforward "distance from the mean" method for calculating scoring. I now (...) (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) Wow, I'm even worse... I feel dirty! Anyway thanks, nice to see what is the general trend :) Would it be possible also to show the overall general score? Cheers, Matija (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | Re: Lego Purity
|
| (...) Yeah, I thought about that at first-- more of a standard "Purity Test" rather than a "Lego-Purism" test. A "have-you-ever" sort of deal, to tell how much of a Lego Saint you were or something. But then I started thinking about it, and, well, (...) (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Lego Purity
|
| (...) LOL it's a fun test, but different people may use different criteria for answering the questions. For example I used "Have you/would you use ... ?" to answer mine, and scored 0/10, but I haven't actually used many of the things I marked "ok" (...) (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) I thought I did - I rated myself an 8, and came in at 8.3 or thereabouts when I started... but I was the 2nd person to fiull it out. Over time, I've noticed my purity score is dropping (but only due to a few questions... odd, I wonder if I (...) (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general)

| On a scale of 0-10, you rated yourself 9/10 in terms of purity. According to our data, on a purity scale from 0-10, you rate 9.05/10. I guess I know myself pretty well. ; ) David (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| As a bit of a puritan (in Lego terms ; ) I was shocked to not even make 8... Great idea though! God Bless, Nathan (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Lego Purity
|
| (...) I'm kind of suprised as well, actually-- it seems that a fair number of people think that Galidor, Znap, Bionicle, Clikits, etc are more impure than I would've thought them to be. I would've figured more people would say that they were fine, (...) (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

So, I made a little test: (URL) Right now, it's only got my own information, (...) (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX) !!

Since the retail brand store is the point of sale, and if you merely ordered it months ago, but have not paid for it yet, then I would tend to believe that the stamping would apply. Just (...)
