What's Going on, Then?

The deal is, my brother is conducting a psychology experiment, and needs to build up some 'mock' profiles of people he's never met. Obviously, this is a little tricky, but I reckoned h2g2 would be the ideal place to get some questions answered. Ideally, I'd like at least 30-40 responses, but that might be a bit optimistic, I don't know.

The cool bit is, if you do reply, I can give you some feedback on your profile.

Go on, then. What do I Have to do?

Simply answer the 50 questions below (they're all one-word answers or on a scale of 1-20¹), and post your replies in a thread below. Please take note of the following, though.

• If you're uncomfortable posting them in a thread, then email me with your responses (preferably with your h2g2 nickname so I don't harrass you to fill this in again). My email address is 'ousgg' at yahoo dot com.
• I will not pass anyone's h2g2 nickname, or anything else I know about you, on to my brother. I promise - this is very important.
• For any multiple choice/one word answers, feel free to elaborate or make up your own (appropriate) answers. The words in brackets are just suggested choices.
• The questions are deliberately mixed up. Please don't try and read any logic into them². There are a few red herrings thrown in as well.
• Some of the questions are of quite a personal nature. If you don't want to answer any of them, that's fine. Just leave your answer blank in the appropriate place.
• If some of the questions seem illogical or partly worded, just bear with it - it's all part of the game.
• Be honest! The odds are that you'll come out as a raving lunatic if you're not.
• If you do want feedback on your profile, subscribe to the Feedback thread, below, and I'll get some information from my brother.

¹Don't ask me 'why 20, and not 10?' - I don't know.²If you think you have seen a survey like this before, please don't post anything here. Come and have a quiet chat with me somewhere else, and I'll tell you whether you're right or just imagining things.³No funny answers, please. This is a serious survey.
