I'm only 51.8% Amiga pure :( I guess I've lost some of it over the years...

Is there a misunderstanding? From what I read from that page, I understand that the corruptness increases and purity score decreases as you tick more boxes.

I answered 5 out of 78 questions and got 84.1 Amiga pure

Each tick decreases your amiga purity by a few points making you closer to amiga corrupted status :) We all think it the other way around. :cheese

Seeing as there are no question's relating to emulation, I'm 100% pure. Nobody will ever beat that;)

55.3 here....pretty bad, when you consider all that really means is how many tickboxes you checked.
Akira
25 February 2002, 00:18
81.2%

It matters more than how many Twistin. Look at CPC64s number of ticks and my number of ticks. If your theory goes that the more you ticked the lower you have, then by all accounts CPC64 should have a higher one than me

Yo, Akira! 81.2% pure too!
It was the LIBS: question that did it, I bet.
Paul

I'm 84.7% Amiga pure. :D
And I thought I would get a low score:eek
Hmmm Just out of curiousity and because I got a highish score, I did the test again and got 100.0% Amiga pure (0.0% Amiga corrupt). The only thing is I DIDN'T answer a single question! Could it be that a high score is actually a low score?

I'm also 84.7% Amiga pure ... probably the highest purity score I'm likely to ever earn in any area of my life. ;)

hah, perhaps :) One thing impressed me though: teh Amplificator question... How did they know I connected my Amiga to an OLD amp? Is everybody using an old amp?
They sound so much better than today's garbage :D

Pretty much, I originally had an old Tube amp, I think it was a Harmon-Kardon or maybe a Marantz, it's been so long. It had some tubes going out and then the power supply took a dump. It would have cost more to repair it then to get another :(
I even went so far as to connect up an old Reverb unit from Pioneer, you know the kind with the spring in it ;)

Here's how it stands.
Severin 50.6%
jmmijo 51.8%
Twistin'Ghost 55.3%

jmmijo
10 September 2003, 16:15
or simply fudged on the test :cheese
I have a feeling that us bottom four are a more accurate representation of a true Amigan ;)

Somehow I agree with you. You are true Amigans.
I'd say the rest of us where just games players who loved the machine (or it's emu's Ian ;) )

Simply that despite my average score (and possibly some of the others, as well), I couldn't possibly have been more true to the machine. Not just a gamer, but used and loved the machine as much as any human could. That's all.

Cool.
I just had no idea what you meant. Didn't know if you was gonna hit me with a stick or attack me with some poodles.
