Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2005 I got the exact same position on both graphs; horizontally smack dab in the middle, but a third of the way to the bottom. That would be kinda cool if they followed the same criteria and the grids had the same axes, if they are not then we have firm proof that internet tests aren't credible. For the second one, I'm a social moderate who leans to the left economically, that's almost the opposite of a libertarian, which I think the first one exposed me to be. Bah.

Like Simon Belmont in Castlevania inching 99% of his body weight over empty space and hanging on by his toenails. That's WAY close to falling over the edge.

Like Simon Belmont in Castlevania inching 99% of his body weight over empty space and hanging on by his toenails. That's WAY close to falling over the edge. It rocks that you used Belmont in that metaphor. I found a secret in Castlevania II. Instead of going to the left (no pun intended), I went to the right until I came to that pit with the land on the other side. It's not a jump that can be made. I think they intended it as a tease. But I found out that if you stand Simon on the very edge and, using a NES Advantage, press both A and B on turbo and put the stick in the 2:00 position, he will make the "jump." It's more like he just appears up there. I sent it in to Nintendo Power magazine at the time (1988?) but I don't remember them printing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
