Whoever you were (argammon maybe ?), I did 124. CTG and Mingva, it's your turn to make this test :arrow:

oui le guest ?tait une personne imbue d'elle m?me. il n'y en a pas beaucoup dans la communaut?. quoique... :)
It is reasonable to expect that genetic influences on traits like IQ should become less important as one gains experiences with age. Surprisingly, the opposite occurs.

CTG

As far as I remember, my result was 133 few years ago (or 131, I'll look for the result somewhere in my archives). I don't believe in this kind of test anyway - sense to 2D geometry can't be coupled with real skills, knowledge or logical thinking on more realistic fields. Even with this score, I'm too retarded for chess or any table games, while some people with ~90-100 are really talented in them.

A better question is: taking account of your mental skills, what are your main strengths and weaknesses?

135, picture attached.
Yes, it is me. No, I'm not back at racing (for now...)

126, i remember taking another one a while back where i got 133 or 135 but i never took it seriously, it seems most of these test are based on figuring out new rules based on limited information which may be indicative of how fast you can learn, but that doesn't take into account how do you apply what you already know to a new problem or the situation where you apply them , etc.
My only weakness it's that i am extremely lazy, in fact i figured out (or at least i think i did) most of the patterns, i had more than 15 min to spare for the couple ones i skipped and didn't even try.
By the way Chess is a game of memory more than a game of intelligence, professional  players have huge mental databases of positions and patterns and basic tactical/strategic concepts to use before they reach truly uncharted territory.

My wallet's weight is 126 kg, so I guess I won :D

5 centavo = 2 g ---> 63.000 coins,  3.150 argentin peso, ~600 USD... hmmm... you can make a nice trip from that.

Tell me more.. :) Because I am not prone to believe you.

126 as well; unlike adpunk, however, I used all of the available time. In any case, this test appears to require a very specific kind of reasoning. It would be interesting to read the actual evidence for the correlation of results such as these these and general intelligence, whatever that is.

I think all of us are Short Cutfinder's ghosts.
But we can't be quite sure.

In a hurry I scored 115. Seems I am the most stupid around here. :D (which is probably true)
