Hilarious! So which are you??? I'd say right brain with a mix of left, from your posts in the RPG.

Wow, almost as screwy as my brain.  From what it seems I qualify as left yet test right.  I'd say he is right brain with left too Jen.

Wow, thats freaky.  Seems to be going counter clock-wise.  What are the descriptions for ppl who are left-brained?

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception
knows object name
reality based
forms strategies
practical
safe

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling
"big picture" oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking

My "default setting" seems to be Clockwise, or Right-Brain oriented.  This doesn't surprise me; I have a pretty active imagination and consider myself to be creative- I like making things, be it writing a story, drawing a picture, or building a model.

If I close my eyes for a few seconds and imagine the dancer spinning counter-clockwise, when I open my eyes, that is what I see.  I have to work at seeing it this way, though; if I look a way for a moment and look back, she's spinning clockwise again.

***EDIT***

I have a feeling that most people on the forum are going to be at least 50% right-brained (if something like this can be quantified).  It seems to me that folks who enjoy sci-fi are going to have fairly active imaginations, which is supposed to be a right-brained trait.

I'm more 50/50 I think from all this talk.  And I found the part that talked about that wraith before you posted, but thanks anyway.  I'm sure the other members don't mind.

Just X, I took the same test and I also scored left brain dominant but I continue to see the dancer turning clockwise no matter how hard I try to see her turn counter-clockwise.  I'm confused  :confused

Ripley: Ash. Any suggestions from you or Mother?
Ash: No, we're still collating.
Ripley: [Laughing in disbelief] You're what? You're still collating? I find that hard to believe.

Right brain all the way baby!  With a small hint of left brain.




I have been and always will be, your friend.

Jens test said slightly left dominate 60 / 40 and the above test says right brained. Confused? guess that make me a hybrid.
