Oh look, a quiz! Everyone try it and take the results seriously.

"Your Aspie score: 121 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 79 of 200
You are very likely an Aspie"

Test is here: http://www.rdos.net/eng/Aspie-quiz.php

Incidentally, the term 'aspie' provokes in me hostility. It sounds to me like a word for a pet and I expect people can see why such an association from the mouths of strangers would repulse me. I try not to bristle when people use this term to describe themselves

I also happen to think this quiz was composed by a neurotypical person. Many of the questions were worded in such a way as to be unclear in ways I think a person who had that experience would not, In other cases, even though I thought I understood the intent of the question, it was worded such that I found it difficult to answer.

Oh, and they misspelled 'sex' repeatedly in the preliminary questions.

I have no intention of participating in the study this is related to.

And I just realised it is probably relevant that I am disinterestedly ignoring the social gathering visible three metres in front of me through a glass door.

    Apart from that it was kind of fun.

Another day

    Yesterday I transcribed another 250 words of Krakkaire. My fingers are getting very twitchy copying it over as is. Small changes are being made.
    'Finished' the initial scene setter for FotHE's Flight plotline, added some background information for Raven Zemaire but mostly discovered I already had a few documents lying around for that material. Did not do anything for RXS. Did have a very productive conversation with soltice about Raven Zemaire which helped with various details, themes and plot directions.
    That is all on that front, time to 'write' some more. Fortunately I have not yet worked out how to play that 3D Chess game I installed, although I did give in to temptation and log in to my account at Brainking for the first time in half a year... since I started tracking my writing, in fact.
    If anyone cares to have a go at something, well, I am not that hot but this is how people learn, right? Or maybe I will see if n-dimensional tetris breaks my brain or not.

Edit:

1. Blame gentle_gamer for my suddenly renewed interest in board games
2. I think I have a partial solution for the daily quota problem I have created for myself. Instead of trying to meet a word quota each day, I will try basing a monthly total based on what would be the daily quota and keep track of the average I need to maintain to meet it. This way it will not matter so much if I miss a day (or spend it editing), so long as overall I keep on track.
3. I do not want to see the word quota for the next week.
