Well, here you have another one... A personality quiz.
It's funny, I got Sherlock, probably the character I relate to the less, but I think it must be because of the first thing I would save from a fire...
Enjoy, and please share your results, it can be interesting

I got Sherlock as well.
Yes, the fire thing is interesting! As I dont have pets, my photo albums are far too heavy to run down the many stairs of mine with them, I'd go for my laptop. Or is it because of my choice for a certain place as a dream vacation?
I wonder what to answer if I wanted to be Anderson...

Well, I answered the fire question with "my musical instrument" (I love my cello too much, much more than any other material thing in my house) so it must be another thing, then... I don't remember much of my other answers, but I think it's pretty obvious which ones to choose if you want to be a Moriarty

Mycroft! MYCROFT!!

Made me laugh... but in a bemused kind of way.

HAHA I got Molly

Milkomeda · May 5, 2012 4:48 am

I got Sherlock too, but it doesn't surprise me at all !

JaneCo · May 5, 2012 9:29 am

My daughter says it was because I answered the cake question with honesty.

Sherlock Holmes · May 5, 2012 10:05 am

I got Sherlock too, yay!

Actually I honestly wasn't expecting it because I put down that I'd save my computer and imagined that a Sherlock answer would be the musical instrument one...so other questions must have an impact on it. I said Harry Potter was for children but I thought that looked a bit like a Moriarty answer.

Oh Lordy! I got Molly! I loved some of the options!

JaneCo · May 5, 2012 10:45 am

Just had a thought... maybe I have a 'power complex' .

I may have to change my forum name!

I got Mycroft! I like that I am now intelligent and basically the government... it's just weird that my mom is now my brother ?!!

Oh and does anyone have an idea why Mycroft's dream vacation would be to Disneyworld??

tobeornot221b · May 7, 2012 8:18 pm

I couldn't bear to be upset Mummy Holmes - imagine the Christmas dinners...!

I can't imagine Mycroft in Disneyworld xD.

JaneCo · May 7, 2012 8:45 pm

I got Mycroft too, and I entered London in answer to the dream holiday question.

Milkomeda · May 7, 2012 8:48 pm

Well, same answers give different results, but some are more recurrent. So I'm a lot like Sherlock, with bits of Mycroft and a touch of Molly.

To be fair, I just wanted to go to Alcatraz because it's in San Francisco and there's lots of tech companies there. The lifestyle of a traveller means I don't have much by way of physical possession with me at any point so I'd probably start the fire (aka as moving on) and who doesn't want to get away with everything in a relationship?

With the exception of the favourite film one I didn't really get the obvious references they were alluding to.

Fun enough though - not done these since the popular late 90's ones, think I'll last another 14 years before the next

I got John. :D Haha, interesting quiz! Seems like alot of you guys got Sherlock. :O I wonder what's up with that?

Oh lord, Mycroft in Disney World? That is a hilarious mental image right there. XD

Wholocked · May 8, 2012 5:03 am

Well I got Molly the first time but there were a couple of questions where two options were just as appealing, so when I chose the other options I ended up with Sherlock.

Sherlock Holmes · May 8, 2012 6:55 am

For the relationship one I put that my ideal mate would do everything I said...I imagined that would probably be a Moriarty answer, but I still go Sherlock so certain answers must give different weight to certain characters.

Anthea_MI6 · May 8, 2012 12:18 pm

I am Mycroft
Does not surprise me to be honest.
