There's no way I would describe you as introvert though, you were perfectly happy at the BBB chatting away to people you barely knew both years.

We may not have met everyone that attends the BBB's in person before hand, but we do all have common interests and thanks to the forums have had conversations with most of them.
So nun are compleat strangers, strange yes, but strangers no.

Also there is never a crowded feeling at the BBB, you can and do move from one gathering to another at your own will.

Ah, another 2%er.
I wouldn't mind betting that most on here would be xNTx. Its the sort of hobby that is going to attract those types, and needs that sort of make up.

[Head Womble]

What do you mean "another 2%er" I thought you got 22% in that part.

[greasemonkey]

Only around 2% of Men  test as INTJ. Less than 1% of Women, so they say.

Running through it again during my sleepless morning I score INTJ. I don't know what I answered differently so went through again and scored the same despite tweeks. Curious. The I is borderline but NTJ seems consistent.

Baring in mind, a professionally conducted MBTI assessment takes a day with trained examiner, and the report can run to over 50 pages, so a 60 question internet test is not going to be accurate to within 10%. It's very much a rough guide, particularly with small percentages in favour of certain traits.
Try the test again in six months time, and see what happens.
I've been interested in MBTI for about 5 years and have re run the test maybe ten times. It gave borderline INTP once, which is understandable, given my weak preference towards J. The stronger preferences never vary by much more than 5%.

...not that any of it really means anything to me!

But that is learned behaviour.
Even the biggest extrovert could be completely socially inept, and on the same token, an introvert can learn very sophisticated social skills, if they choose to do so.
Part of the reason I can and do engage complete strangers in conversation is confidence and curiosity, and a concious effort to overcome my natural inclinations, of remaining aloof and distant. Letting those inclinations manifest themselves would be detrimental to me.
It's about ones inclination, not what one does. An extrovert thrives on human contact, and the more they get, the better they feel. If they were to lock themselves away for days on end, they would experience an amount of discomfort in some way, where as to me, long periods of solitude are essential to my wellbeing. I thrive on it.
A small crowd, I can deal with, for a while, but the hightend state of awareness that I require to function in that environment leaves me exhausted.  I cannot understand how going into a crowded pub can relax people at the end of a week. That just makes me ill. I just withdraw.

interesting, i tend to sit in the corner in pubs with a wall behind me. this is learned behaveure from years of working and frequenting rough pubs in birmingham. dont like sitting with my back to the door as ypu never know who will come barging in. of course most of the time nothing is going to happen. but my drunken pillock detector is always on. i sometimes get called aloof and distant,usually by insecure people who have to need to be noticed by everyone. i am not i just tend to talk to the mote interesting people arouind me, rather than the passing the time of day type.

Did the test again now I'm fully awake.  INTJ again.

Looks like we are in similar company here.

My company's HR department do psychometric profiling of graduates before we get to see them for interview.  I have some reservations against formulaic assessment of people, but I'm increasingly surprised about how their summaries of the candidates consistently align with our own by the more traditional face to face methods.

The test was devised long before the internet. It's a small part of the full test. The full test has a lot more questions, relating to each of those questions.
It was fist devised at the end of the 1940s, but only became mainstream in the late '50s, when the US military started using it to determine the best positions and training methods for their recruits. Since then it has been used by business as well.
Now it's considered somewhat old fashioned and clunky, and expensive to carry out, and has been replaced by psychometric testing, although the US military still use it.
Least ways, that's what I understand of it.

The figures alone won't make any sense, with out some understanding of what they represent, some of which is here,

When you consider that less than 2% of Men test as INTJ, and a slightly larger number test as INTP, then to have five people in row test like that is a statistical improbability of quite some magnitude.
It doesn't entirely surprise me, but it does, sort of........

Well it's often said that it takes a curtain type of person to do what we do.

How often have other referred to you as a nutter or weird for running veg/bio.
with this in mind I'm not that surprised we have a high number of 2%ers.
