Which historical General are you?

http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?te...91814577368116

I scored:

Unorthodox 88%
Tactics 22%
Guts 90%
Ruthlessness 18%

...so the authors claim that my leadership style is most like the Terminator. Not sure I agree, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow to ask one of my interns.

I guess I'm a puss.

King Edward I
You scored 68 Wisdom, 65 Tactics, 57 Guts, and 50 Ruthlessness!
Or rather, King Edward the Longshanks if you've seen Braveheart. You, like Edward, are incredibly smart and shrewd, but you win at any costs.... William Wallace died at his hands after a fierce Scottish rebellion against his reign. Despite his reputation though, Longshanks had the best interests of his people at heart. But God help you if you got on his bad side.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 66% on Unorthodox

You scored higher than 34% on Tactics

You scored higher than 61% on Guts

You scored higher than 61% on Ruthlessness

Test might be a little off-

76% Unorthodox
71% Tactics
64% Guts
30% Ruthlessness

And I got ranked Edward I. The comment about winning at any cost doesn't really fit with the rather low ruthlessness... and Roguish Lawyer and I are inverse on Tactics and Ruthlessness, yet represent the same guy.

Oh well, entertainment value and all...

LOL, it seems that the biggest difference between the Terminator and George Washington is tactics!

LOL, yah, actually I did it twice and changed very few answers. The other result was Wallace. So combining the descriptions of these two, Wallace is suggested to be Washington without brain.

Not sure I completely agree with these measurements.
