In my scoring mechanism, I was trying to predict what the most likely deviation from the mean would be, but I didn't have any data at the time. Under the covers, the way it scores you (...)

| (...) yea, I understand that, but I cannot be a pure non-purist which is what a 0.00 score would indicate if I thought 3 were blasphemous. I mean, by picking three as blasphemous, I have contaiminated the purity of my "non-purity" and therefore I (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| I'm shocked I scored as high as a 5.5! An overall 58% for fan-created customs. Pretty cool! Although I think I recognize several names in this thread having ordered from BrickForge - maybe I better start disclosing! :) Kyle Peterson BrickForge (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) Heh, yep, that's precisely how it's supposed to work :) If you're ok with things like gluing, using stickers, etc, then you're not as big of a purist! If you count everything as blasphemous, though, then you're a pretty definite purist! DaveE (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) Congrats Dave, it's really an interesting idea. I didn't consider myself as pure and rated myself at 3/10. After answering I get : "According to our data, on a purity scale from 0-10, you rate 0.17/10" I don't mind if it's a good result or (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| Hello! OK... I considered myself quite pure in respect of Lego. My first try yielded a poor impure 5.something, though. So I thought it over, adjusted some answers from "of course!" to "I don’t mind", and suddenly I’m 7.98/10 pure. What keeps me (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general)
