What kind of sock puppet are you?

Honourable pacifist with a dash of erratic (to counterbalance the pacifist), all combined with a healthy mix of technologist/ecologist and a "this is all situational" attitude.

In other words, totally clueless as to what the heck I am doing.

The last sentence is of course my erratic side getting the best of me. You know, keep any potential enemies guessing...

Hmm, this was fun

I think I would describe myself as erratic, aggressive and diplomatic in that order, and with erratic not being an active strategy as much as a RPG-whim way of erratic.

I'm also a bad winner, that is, I don't like winning much. I like the war/contest aspect of the game, but I tend to feel sorry for my enemies if I go to well. I have to actively tell myself that it is a game to the other player as well, when I aggressively attack them. To lessen my feelings of compassion I tend to RPG as much as I can. This might lead to erratic behaviour.

You feel sorry for your enemies?? How strange!

You need to watch Conan the Barbarian again:

"Conan, what is best in life?"

"To crush enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women."

I would say I'm a pacifistic expansionist/ecologist.

Almost certainly an Honorable Ecologist; this is highly theoretical, but primarily because I've played exactly one MP game, and that wasn't even fully done. I tend to think of gem income as primary income, but I've played a lot of different races (and I think Urdheim is a really interesting mod, btw).

Diplomatic Aggressive Ecologist. Always gotta be at war with somebody (to increase my gem flow), but to the best of my ability make that just one person who's also fighting on another front.

I'm definitely an honorable diplomat. There is nothing I like more than seeing a strong alliance through till the end of the game.

I prefer to be a dirty, low down, defensive-specialist. I dislike attacking, but I love seeing the enemy fall into traps. I like to expand quickly for a short period of time, and then hold on to what I've got.

I also go for quality over quantity for troops, which fits into my guerilla-tactics mentality.

My friends would decscribe me rather as "You can be sure than one day Chacal will backstab you" so i have a bad reputation. And I love to play the bad guys anyway.

In Dom 3 I consider myself as pacifist, until i have a big advatage on somebody. Anyway I consider myself as a poor player and I loose a lot. But the most important is to take fun, not win, at least for me.
