hmmm.... let's keep an eye on the topic here. If it deviates too much from a suitable tone for this section I will move it to 'This and that'...


as for an answer...even I am a bit stumped. I can see the pattern of numbers causing some sort of conditioned cultural effect to emerge. Thats only a guess though..

for the result I came up with a red spanner.

I'm wondering if this is actually a valid test. So far, about a couple of people have actually thought red hammer. The rest have thought of different things.

Tests are never really valid when they're that generic.. or rather, when they're meant to "prove" something circumstantial or subjective. Like this.

Everyone who says "red hammer" is a commie. But they also confirm the story in the first post, which is what the test is all about. Fact of the matter is that SGW is a pool of sociopaths and that the 'normal' results will be rare. If only because people already know what is being tested and will always attempt to be .. special.

So yeah.. fun, but not an actual test of anything but your gullibility. :)







@Semper: It's a bit on the spammy side, hm? But if you do move it, move it to ToS instead of T&T. ;)

I guess that 2% all play SGW, how statistically interesting, though so improbable it's painful.

I think its time for the OP to emplain what the calculations have to do with making you think of a red hammer?

Also how exactly was this created & tested?

And what it means when you dont think of a red hammer? Is it some kind of suggestion or lateral thinking thing for example?

I think that the point is that its a simple mind frack.

calculations prolly have nothing to do with it & the 2% 98% is allso likely simply made up. But as I`ve said, statistically a lot of people will go with hammer & red since they are one of the most representative things in their areas. And they`ll get a funny tingly feeling of amazement heh.

So don`t be overthinking this.





I`m actually relieved to be normal around all youz "special" folks. :lol:

Just the fact that insane ppl outnumber the sane ones in an asylum is no indication of the general sanity level of the human race in general! :P

i got bored with the maths so skipped the middle bit and came up with a red hammer/spanner (both at same time. didnt settle upon one.)

this is cool. while red is a fairly common colour and the hammer is a well known tool, i dont think its jus random choice that determines what people say to this. id guess theres some kind of association involved when the person reads it.

anyone else got more of these type things? they are clever :-D
