The FanFiction Meme

... because it looked like fun! Not very surprising results, especially this bit: You are probably a walking dictionary of your favourite fandom. *snickers*

Your result for The Fan Fiction Personality Test...

The True Fan

OOC is blasphemy, canon is everything.

Once you fall in love with a movie, book or TV series, you are loyal like an old dog. You take fanfiction quite serious and use it as a substitute after the canon ran out.

You are probably a walking dictionary of your favourite fandom and you are picky about what you write and read. The closer to the "real thing" fanfiction is, the more you like it.

You rather explore a character in all depth, see new sides and learn more about them than creating new characters or mix up the situations they are in.

I come out as "the free mind," with above average scores on Mindgamer and Barely FF. Of course, that was based on the two fanfic pieces I've written; if I based it on the games I've run it might be different. Still, that doesn't sound too implausible.

Sounds about right to me! :-)

I answered largely based on Tin Man; some of the answers might've been different if I'd answered based on my participation in another fandom. Maybe not.

I didn't know you had written any fanfic! What fandoms?

For me, it depends on the fandom... I know facts and figures for Stargate, but I tend to avoid the fandom, side... go figure %]

That's how I was about Highlander. And I watched BSG religiously regularly, but I just never felt like writing or reading fic based on it. (I did read some that a friend of mine wrote, because she's a friend of mine, and it was actually quite, quite good, but I still didn't catch the fever or however you'd put it.)

And, ya know, I thoroughly enjoyed Alice, but ... I just don't feel fannish about it.

'bobs and I were discussing this very thing, just the other night...

It's weird!

So, what is your Old Dog name? You should choose one to go with these results :)

I was thinking about "Nutrix," but I don't think I'd ever be able to learn it. :-D

[bulleteyes.livejournal.com]

Sure you could. Something that goes with a fandom though, hmmm . . Ozzie?

[amedia.livejournal.com]

Well, I'd always heard that you can't teach an Old Dog "Nutrix" (try it aloud)...

"Ozzie" is great! Presumably as in Wizard of Oz and not as in the former lead singer of Black Sabbath?

[bulleteyes.livejournal.com]

I did try Nutrix aloud. It actually sounds like a splendid name for a highly priced dog food. I did not want you to waste it on an LJ prank when you can sell that sucker to some company and make boucoup bucks.

If you don't care for your bats raw, then it would pertain to WoZ.

I wonder if it already is ... it popped into my head with suspicious ease. Or am I thinking of "Nutrax for Nerves" from Murder Must Advertise?

Oh, well said, well said!
