Which Touhou Girl Are You?
« on: May 19, 2017, 12:06:06 AM »
No, don't answer that question just yet. I made a web app just for that:
http://whichtouhou-147401.appspot.com/

A few things of note:
- I don't know if something like has ever been done before, but maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.
- I'm no pro at front end design / implementation.
- The personality profiles might not be accurate. For all I know, I might be a terrible judgement of character. But hey that's what forums are for, eh?
- Constructive criticism is always welcome.

Here's a design doc. Logistics, blah blah. (Sorry, I'm a CS major.)

Overview: Since League of Legends is allowed to have a personality quiz for the Star Guardians troupe, I figured Touhou deserves one as well. Quiz will generate a set of personality metric values corresponding to the taker and then compares them with each of the Touhou characters on record. After 13 questions, the quiz returns the two closest characters to the taker personality-wise.

Characters: There are way too many characters in the Touhouverse to make a serious character profile for each of them, so I had to whittle down the list. Decided on 2 rules:
1.   Character made the top 10 ten most popular characters in this 2017 poll: https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/THWiki_Popularity_Poll
2.   Character is either a playable (story mode only), stage 6 boss, or EX in at least 2 official games.
Final compiled list has 29 characters (listed below).

Metrics: In each character profile, there are numerical values for each of 5 personality metrics to compare against the taker?s, kind of like the metrics you see in Myers-Briggs or OCEAN tests. After the taker answers a question, one or more of their metric values are updated to a new average value.
Brief overview and questions that might explain each metric:
?   Specialized vs Open (SO)
Is the person open to new ideas? Are they curious about other people in general?
?   Headstrong vs Flexible (HF)
How confident is the person about their tastes and values? Are they affected by peer pressure? Is the person likely break down if someone gets verbal with them?
?   Innocent vs Knowledgeable (IK)
Self-explanatory, but can also indicate how quickly the person takes in new information, rather than just how much they already know.
?   ISolationist vs iNtervening (SN)
Is the person confrontational or nosy, or are they more on the passive side? Do they usually take matters into their own hands?
?   Harmonious vs Utilitarian (HU)
Is the person pleasant to have around as company? Do they respect other people?s autonomy in a social setting? Would others describe the person as uptight?

Each character is assigned a set of 5 values, each ranging from 1 to 4, in the above order. For example, a character with the values 1 4 2 1 3 is more Specialized than Open, more Flexible than Headstrong, and so on.

The distribution (for now):
SHISH
SHISU - Alice Mokou
SHINH
SHINU - Shinmyoumaru Nitori
SHKSH - Marisa Yukari
SHKSU - Patchouli Sakuya
SHKNH
SHKNU - Reimu
SFISH
SFISU - Youmu
SFINH - Kokoro
SFINU - Cirno
SFKSH - Satori
SFKSU
SFKNH
SFKNU
OHISH
OHISU - Reisen
OHINH - Ichirin Aya
OHINU - Meiling Futo
OHKSH - Mamizou
OHKSU - Byakuren
OHKNH - Suwako Miko
OHKNU - Remilia Suika
OFISH
OFISU
OFINH - Flandre Sanae Koishi
OFINU
OFKSH - Komachi
OFKSU
OFKNH - Yuyuko
OFKNU

In case you're wondering, my Touhou girl is Mamizou, then Marisa as runner-up!

So...
Which Touhou girl ARE you?

Futo, with Ichirin as a runner-up.

OK I can abide this. I can be pretty condescending.

Sanae, runner up Aya.

The former is a little funny since a friend just told me the other day that I have this "does not compute" face, and one of the things I really like about Sanae is her blank '... now loading ...' face she did back in TD and UFO. What a weird coincidence. Don't know how I got Aya.

Same here, which surprised me because Reisen wasn't one of my favorites. Are we related somehow? This is weird.

"Do you feel that there is often something to contribute to the people around you?" -- what does this question mean?

In any case, I seem to be Mamizou. That was a surprise at first, but the way you describe her sounds like a pretty good match :)

Sakuya, with runner-up being... Byakuren?
Though I doubt I'm as elegant and well-mannered as they are with how sloppy and crass I am IRL, I guess it kinda makes sense when I think about it. Nowadays I tend to be more cold and dismissive towards whatever annoys and/or frustrates me than outright angry, and while I can be open-minded, if someone tries to forcefully shove their ideas and opinions to me they'll just end up pushing me away even further.

Got Suwako, with Yuyuko as a runner-up.

It's kinda a half-half situation for each character here. I'm not as mischievous as Suwako is described to be, but do always accept defeat after fair confrontations even though it's not the most comfortable of situations, and I'm not as playful as Yuyuko is portrayed to be, but do have a decent sense for humor and generally don't easily get offended by jokes.
Normal 1cc: EoSD, PCB, IN, PoFV, MoF, UFO, TD, DDC, LoLK Legacy, HSiFS, WBaWC
Hard 1cc: IN, DDC, HSiFS
Extra clears: MoF, DDC, HSiFS, WBaWC

Goals: Going Extra Hard!

This is just me attempting to get a number in the Isolationist-Intervening scale, I admit I'm not too confident in the questions myself :/

Doesn't work for me.
There's a bit of a loading time when you click Get Started. Probably all the images. I wasn't aiming for efficiency when I coded this thing, lol.

Hmm, from reading the replies it looks like the results seem to be an OK fit for the majority. Heheh, fantastic. Everything is going as planned.

The following characters still haven't made an appearance!
Alice
Shinmyoumaru
Yukari
Patchouli
Youmu
Kokoro
Cirno
Remilia
Flandre
Koishi
Komachi

Which, from looking at all the children in the bunch, makes sense since I don't think any of you are under 12 :P
But still, I hope a Patchouli shows up sooner or later. She's one of my favs.

No, it just plain doesn't react to clicking the button. No errors or anything.

Kokoro and Reisen as my runner-up.

Based on those descriptions I guess both balance well together to describe me although I tend to be someone who embraces emotions. I like to smile, laugh and all that neat stuff.

Sorry to hear that :/ I might have to port this thing onto another hosting service. Give me a few days, I'll be on the road for a while.

Kokoro and Reisen as my runner-up.
Hrmm, the metrics I gave these two are completely different tho (save for the Innocent bit). You probably landed somewhere smack in between and there was no one closer besides these two. (Or I'm just a bad coder lmao)

Nevermind, it works at my home.

Anyway, mine are... Futo and Ichirin?! My first reaction is "meh", but on second thought they MIGHT be closer to how I am than I would like to admit...

Regardless, I'd give myself SHISU. Alice and Mokou do feel more up my valley.

Closest match Marisa, runner up Yukari.

I usually play around and take it easy until I can't afford to do so, so I guess these are results I can get behind of. I'm nowhere proactive nor outgoing as Marisa is though,  but apparently science seems to hold a different opinion so okay I guess.

Sorry for not being clearer. I meant that I couldn't parse the grammar of the question. As it stands, it sounds like you are asking "Do you feel there is often something you should be contributing, but are not?" whereas I think you meant to say "Do you feel that there is often something you contribute to the people around you?", giving a quite different sense.

Closest match: Byakuren Hijiri.

I'm good with this. I look up to Byakuren as a hero in a way. I have a lot of respect for her so it makes sense that I've become more like her as time passes.

Runner up: Sakuya Izayoi

Sakuya? Really? I took it as a bit of an insult but it makes sense. I often took these quizes when Reimu was my least favourite character and often got her. I often find with Touhou that I'm most like the things I dislike.
