Huh...
This is interesting. Not only are they using the little pictures of the characters from the movie, they are also using the character profiles from the movie to determine how to score the test.

Example: I got Arwen when I say that I am eager for battle and like to use a sword. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have gotten that if they were using the book rather than the movie. Oh well, it's just a silly test.

I got Legolas. Wait a second: our bow-plucking elf-prince is male, right? Dunno how that works, what with me being female and all. Maybe he has a sister or two of similar temperament.

I would just like to submit the opinion that the survey leaves a bit to be desired. More questions are needed. I mean, "do you have a beard"? I bet if you say yes to that one you automatically end up as either Gimli or Gandalf <rolls eyes>.

Crow, you're right. There should be many more questions. And not about your external appearance, but about your interests, likes/dislikes, etc.

I was Merry the first time, and Legolas the second: some of those I wasn't sure what my answer would be! Yes, 7 questions is not nearly enough and the beard one is dumb.

Strider Aragorn

Not much of surprise either. I took one of these questionairre type things somewhere else and it was determined that I was a peredhel which means half-elven.

Elrond's children were these type folks. Maybe I should have turned out to be Arwen. Aragorn will do though.

I'm Merry!
I wanted to be Sam, but oh well.
Is anyone Sam?
(You can probably tell that I am obsessed with him by now )
I also got Elrond once.

Merry.

I wonder how it's done... If anyone here is good with computer code type things... I'm sure here at entmoot we could make a better one! I could help with the questions or something if someone does the "mind of metal and wheels" stuff!!

When I did it the first time, I was Elrond. I went back an changed my answer to the pointy ears from yes to no and still got Elrond. Peace.

I couldn't decide my answer on one of the questions so I did it twice and got Galadriel and Legolas.
