Huh. There wasn't any question about whether you a) already belong to Rat Army, b) are a Rat, or c) think that Rat Army is the coolest. And yet, I got Rat Army anyway. I don't know about anyone else, but that test pegged me, at least in my preference for Rat Army.

Not that a mere pluralality means anything, but it seems pretty clear that Rat is the best army.

Dink Meeker's: RAT ARMY

Deep, thoughtful and rebellious. You don't like following orders mindlessly. You give good thought to things before doing them, and exclusively do things according to your own strong beliefs. You like having your own opinion about everything, even if it's not your superior's.

In which army should you be? Ender's game quiz brought to you by Quizilla

I enjoyed the quiz and my result, rniss, but when I read all the descriptions, I found the descriptions of Salamander and Badger army kind of harsh. Nobody would like to be told by a quiz that they are unintelligent jerks. (Assuming you care what I think) I would suggest thinking about how Madrid and Slatteri would perceive themselves. Surely they don't tell themselves they are bullies or less capable. Their descriptions should match how they would describe their virtues. That's my 2ยข.

I think there's room in this world for people to rejoice in their own evilness. But that's probably just me. I bet other people don't like to do that very much.

Dragon! Sweet.


Cold, calm, smart and powerful. You are used to success and to getting everything you want by your own means. You know when to trust others and many people is willing to follow you. You are an influent person in your friend's opinions and actions.

Ya i got Pheonix Although The description does sound like a fortune cookie

Rabbit Army
 
Posted by rniss (Member # 8704) on :
 
Hi there, sorry if for some people their result could sound like a fortune cookie. I'm perfectly aware of that, it's just that it's quite difficult to make it fit everybody. And there's always someone who won't fit at all.

About some descriptions being offensive... well... this quizz is meant just for fun, and few people (having read the book) are going to answer "Yes, I'm a bully" unless they WANT to get Bonzo Madrid. I really mean no harm.

About Slatteri... I've changed it. Mainly because very little information about him is given and I prefered someone utterly unknown. I know Spider army is not faithful to the book, but it's a way to express that there might be obscure yet brilliant armies. I think that a very positive thing, not offensive at all.

Above all, thanks for giving the quiz a chance and enjoying it. I'd love people to rate it, because I want an Ender's game quiz to stand out of all those "what kind of girlfriend are you?" quizzes and mindless shit like that.

I'm insulted by the stereotypical Salamander results. You do realize that there was a Salamandar Army before there was a Bonzo Madrid? It doesn't HAVE to be associated with a jerk like Bonzo. Via Virtual Battle School, I am the present commander of Salamander. And us Salamanders aren't jerks in any way.

Edit: I'm in Phoenix, by the way. I almost commanded Phoenix.
 
Posted by archon (Member # 8008) on :
 
I'd also like to point out that the only time Dragon Army was ever good in the history of the game was when Ender was at it's helm. ;')

It's notoriously the most losing team in the school.

Posted by ElaRibeira (Member # 8306) on :
 
Phoenix. Oh, we are so going to beat everyone else...
 
Posted by Orson Scott Card (Member # 209) on :
 
The quiz, I'm sure, is about these armies as they appeared in the events of Ender's Game. What they were before or after is irrelevant, don't you think?
 
Posted by Survivor (Member # 233) on :
 
Who's your strategist? At least we have a tactician or two.

I think he did that on purpose just now. Guess we've got to watch out for Rabbit.
 
Posted by rniss (Member # 8704) on :
 
Well, yeah, the quiz refers only to the commanders during Ender's game. I know. I could actually imagine a past or a future for them, but you'd probably try to hang me. XD And I swear I haven't got anything against the current Salamander army.

By the way, would't it be fun to know what OSC himself got as his result (obviously if he actually took the quiz)?

[that's a direct question, sir]

Thanks again for helping me

Woops, sorry, I overlooked it!
Err... I'm not really used to authors posting and interacting with readers. I think this is fantastic... well... hehe...
...YAHOOOO!!! Thanks thanks thanks!

(I tend to get a bit enthusiastic...)
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Fine. I suppose that I'll let my army be looked upon as violent and angry tyrants.

PHOENIX ARMY!

HELL YA!!!
 
Posted by Survivor (Member # 233) on :
 
That isn't really a bad characteristic, once you've decided that you're going to be an army rather than a book club.

I mean, even with all our brilliant tacticians, we're going to have a few problems in the discipline department, aren't we?

Posted by rniss (Member # 8704) on :
 
hehe... I made spider army up. I wanted to give the idea of an unknown army that could be brilliant given time. So I called it spider army.

Harsh, open minded and strong. You're a strong, resourceful person who likes challenge. You are used to winning, and don't accept a loss. You tend to be fierce and smart, and have a quick temper

Great. And here I had thought I had actually changed somewhere along the line. Seems Im predisposed towards being an asshole. And what's worse, I'm GOOD at it [Evil]
