It seems now that the Bruxelles Artifact is really taken from a hidden power, if this is "assigned" to Thumos.

If they want teams based on characteristics, we need a better way to find each other. The Facebook thingie doesn't collect info like that since you have to use real names.

Is there a way to create a poll here that is not anonymous - i.e. clicking your strength gets you added to a list? Otherwise I foresee long threads of "I'm Sophia!" "woo! me too!" "Why am I Diakiosune?" etc etc while we try to find each other. A tool that administered the test and kept a list (by nick) of who is what would be very useful.

Do you need to be a member of facebook to take the test there? And for those who are not members, will there be a way to take it?

Totally agree. But since Kai's actually going to be producing the test, would it make sense to wait till he comes up with the code and work from there to put something together, rather than starting from scratch? Or could we ask him to make the test such that it requires users to enter their names, and then compiles results that we could post centrally?

okay, i can help with whatever chinese help you guys need. i haven't done any emailing to the in-game characters, so if you guys need me to contact mei hui, someone will need to give me some pointers. i'm kind of lost as to how this personality test works as well. are we all to take the personality test when they're done?

Looks like I found the answer to my own question about taking the personality test. It appears that Kai has added it to Ariadne page on findthelostring.

All seven characters have taken the test and have put their results up on their sites:

Ariadne: Thumos
Markus: Thumos
Diego: Mythopoeia
Lucie: Chariton
Noriko: Sophrosune
Mei Hui: Sofia
Larissa: Chariton

So we have two Thumoses, two charitons and no dikaiosune. Oh no! No leader! Anyone fancy asking Eli Hunt to take the quiz? :p

Form where did she (they) have the key? I thought we have to come up with the key. Are we too slow for the PMs?

If yes, why has Markus not answered to the test?

Quizes and missions are in other languages too, for example:

AUZ we gave them the key we developed (royal we, it wasn't me personally of course).

And once you take the quiz, click on the icons to the right - ariadne is doling out the open puzzles and other issues based on strengths. (Although I think you should keep working on the puzzles that you are interested in.)

Did anyone give them a key saying that it was the final key? It seems a little odd that a couple of the agons don't match up with what we'd assume would be their main traits. (Not saying they'd necessarily have to match, but the way things lined up does seem strange to me, especially since 4 did turn out the way we'd guessed.) Are we sure the key they're working with is correct?

I'm only asking this because in Ariadne's e-mail, she said she'd be waiting to get the final key from us before giving the results to Kai:

Quote:
a few people have sent me versions of the key but i haven't peeked yet so i can still take the test... but i will forward the one you tell me is best to kai as soon as you give it to me.

kai has built the test but just needs the key to finish it!!


Of course it may not matter at all, really, but I'm envisioning a possible scenario where the agons are going to try to provide some sort of help in the areas they believe align with their strengths.

Same opinion as Elisabeth. Has someone mailed Ariadne saying this would be the final key? Has someone already contacted Ariadne asking, where she has the key from? I will write an email.

Perhaps the actual Thumos on Ariadnes site is a glitch (even with our prefinal key she would end up as Dikaiosune).

[UPDATE]
They even did not take "our" translations Mad

I wonder who did all this fantastic translation work Wink
