Divergent Factions and Myers Briggs

I realize I haven't done this before, so I decided to try it now. I'll try a few different methods of connecting the factions and MBTI and see which one works best.


METHOD #1 A: Which Factions are best suited for each of the four temperaments?

NF: Most likely Amity or Abnegation.
NT: Almost certainly Erudite.
SP: Dauntless is most likely. Amity is quite likely too.
SJ: Candor, Erudite and Abnegation are all good possibilities. But Dauntless and Amity are possible too.


METHOD #2: Which temperaments are most likely to be in each faction?

Abnegation: NF and SJ.
Amity: NF.
Erudite: NT
Dauntless: SP
Candor: SJ


METHOD #3: Which functions fit each faction best?

Abnegation: Extroverted Feeling
Amity: Extroverted Feeling, Introverted Feeling, Extroverted Intuition.
Erudite: Introverted Intuition, Introverted Thinking, Extroverted Thinking.
Dauntless: Introverted Sensing, Extroverted Sensing, Introverted Thinking, Extroverted Thinking
Candor: Introverted Feeling, Extroverted Thinking


METHOD #4: Which factions best fit each individual Myers Briggs type?

ENFP: Amity, Abnegation, Candor
INFP: Amity, Abnegation, Candor
ENFJ: Amity, Abnegation, Candor
INFJ: Amity, Abnegation, Candor
ENTP: Erudite
INTP: Erudite
ENTJ: Erudite
INTJ: Erudite
ESFP: Amity
ISFP: Amity
ESTP: Dauntless
ISTP: Erudite, Dauntless
ESFJ: Abnegation, Candor
ISFJ: Abnegation, Candor
ESTJ: Candor
ISTJ: Candor, Erudite

Sherlock

The reason I have not been posting for a few days is because of the title of this post. I began watching the TV show Sherlock a few days ago and it ruined my life. Yay! I haven't had much time to think about books and my other normal interests because I am so obsessed with Sherlock. I never thought it was possible to be this obsessed with a TV show. I mean, I've been this obsessed with books, but TV shows are different. 

Book Shimmy Results Show

The Book Shimmy Awards results have been announced!. Here is the link.

And HERE are my opinions:

Well, I wanted Clockwork Princess to win best of shelf, but I love Allegiant too. I also wanted Cassandra to win best author but of course it was Veronica. No one competes with Veronica. Allegiant won for most badass hero too. I was rooting for Champion. As for best friendship, I really wanted Ronan and Gansey to win. Of course it had to be America and Marlee. Will and Tessa won for couple of the year. I knew they would. I'm glad Scarlet won for best fantasy (though I would have been happy if The Dream Thieves had won). Divergent won world series champion which is awesome. I don't think anyone is surprised that Allegiant won most crippling ending. I'm very glad the Potterheads won best fandom. Other than Lord of the Rings, it's my favourite. And, finally, I was not surprised to see Catching Fire win best adaption. I agree. It was the second best movie I saw this year (after the Hobbit).

Which Fandom Should you be In? Myers Briggs Chart

Which fandom should you join? Here is a chart I made so that those of you who know your Myers Briggs types can choose what to read/watch next. Actually, I mostly did this just for fun.
(NOTE: Some parts of this chart might be slightly inaccurate because I'm not actually in all of these fandoms. Please forgive me if some of this doesn't make sense.)

ENFP: The Infernal Devices (Shadowhunters)
INFP: Harry Potter (Potterheads)
ENFJ: The Mortal Instruments (Shadowhunters)
INFJ: The Lord of the Rings (Ringers)
ENTP: Star Trek (Trekies)
INTP: Star Wars (Jedi)
ENTJ: Doctor Who (Whovians)
INTJ: Sherlock (Sherlockians)
ESFP: Twilight (Twihards)
ISFP: The Kane Chrnoicles (Magicians)
ESTP: Divergent (Initiates)
ISTP: Percy Jackson (Demigods)
ESFJ: The Chronicles of Narnia (Narnians)
ISFJ: John Green (Nerdfighters)
ESTJ: The Maze Runner (Runners)
ISTJ: The Hunger Games (Tributes)

My Opinion: The Top 25 Awesomest Book Characters #3

NOTE: This list will change often as I read more books and also as I change my opinions on certain characters kind of randomly. Chances are, this list would look completely different tomorrow. Every few weeks I'll probably have an updated version of this list in a new blog post.

The Inheritance Cycle

I just finished Eragon, the first book in the Inheritance Cycle. I am very impressed. This is fantasy at it's best, and I believe I have joined a new fandom! Eragon and Saphira are awesome. Eragon is really stupid, but so are all main characters. Anyway, this is a new book to add to my favourites list.

Rick Riordan's Tweets

Okay, I'm not on Twiitter, but I love looking at Rick Riordan's tweets. He says the funniest things. Here's a list of some of my favourites:


"Thinking the next trend should be Utopian fiction. 'Everything was perfect. And then, suddenly, everything was still perfect.'"

"I like to sprinkle a few typos in the first edition because it makes them more valuable to collectors. It's all part of the service."

"Rowling is better than you./LOL. Rowling is better than everyone. What's your point?"

"Do you do any script-writing?/I do not. At one point I offered to try rewriting the first script. They were not interested."

"You're the only author who doesn't like his book's movie adaptation./You think so? You should talk to more authors."

"Your irony sometimes sounds like arrogance./Only sometimes??? Must. Try. Harder."

"Hey Rick, is it true that you tweeted that Nico's gonna die in the BoO?/You really think I'd tweet a spoiler that huge?"

"Screen shots of fake tweets are easy to make. When in doubt, check my actual twitter feed. It's the internet. Be skeptical. Always. :D"

"Meet the world's smallest cat ever! His name is Tinker Toy and he's 2 inches tall./Small Bob is small.










"How's BoO going?/Everything is proceeding according to plan. "diabolical laughter*"

"What's the engine's name? I ship the engine and Buford so hard, I have to know the ship's engine's name./Honestly no idea. But that's the sign of a super-fan, when you spend your time shipping a three-legged table and the Argo II's engine."

"Blood of Olympus-Heroes of Olympus = Boo-Hoo. RR may be trolling this fandom again./Nah, you guys troll yourselves just fine."

"Octavian and Nico, is that a good ship?/ Only if you REALLY hate Nico, I guess."

"Could you make a chapter featuring Asian countries like China?/ Like 'on our way to Greece and whoops! Beijing!'Random much?"

"Can't wait 2 read Percy Jackson 2 my son. But he's only 21 months old. Might have 2 wait a few yrs./Good call."

"SPQR on numeric keypad is 7777. 7 is an unlucky number for demigods. What do u have to say for that?/Really bored, eh?"

"r u not even curious bout d movies?/ Like I'm curious about terminal diseases. Doesn't mean I want to experience one."

"NO! NO! NICO! NO! Uncle Rick?/ It means you guys have WAY too much time on your hands."


"Has a fan ever recognized you when your not on a book tour?/ I once signed an autograph in the frozen foods aisle at Costco."

"Dear 2014, I need a camp half-bloof t-shirt!/ Half-bloofs unite! Coming Oct. 2014: The Bloof of Olympus! Well, I suppose being a half-bloof is better than being a full bloof. Okay, I'll stop now, before someone gives me a bloofy nose."

"If Leo went to Hogwarts do you think he would accidentally burn the place down?/ Before you could say expelliarmus."

"If I say that I love u so much will you reply to my tweet?/ No. Wait..."

"My trainer tells how he once trained a woman who was 80. He told her to program her age into the treadmill. She set the speed to 80. Ouch."

"Don't kill nobory!/ I would never kill Nobory. I love Nobory!"

"because of you my life makes sense thank you so much for that./That's frightening on many levels but you're welcome."

"Brushing your hair in the morning w/a paint brush doesn't work, in case you were wondering. And now i shall drink coffee."

"It would be epic if Sadie and Annabeth met like Percy and Carter :D/ Stay tuned."

"do the gods know about your books?/ SHHH! You trying to get me in trouble?"

"Does 'an oath to keep with a final breath' mean 'till death do us part'?/ A lovely thought. No. But a lovely thought."

"People on the internet are saying that two of the Seven will die. Is that true?/ OMG! People on the internet? They're ALWAYS right!"

"What's your advice for people who want to be a successful author?/ Forget about the 'successful' part. Just write. A lot."

"Can you tell us something we can expect for Blood of Olympus?/ Nouns. Also a fair number of verbs."

"I NEED BLOOD OF OLYMPUS RIGHT NOW!/ 'Need is an overused word' - Gaea"

"What is it with you and the name Bob?/  It is the pinnacle of all names, the meta-name, the name optimus maximus. It is BOB."

"I just saw a boy reading HoH. Should I ask him to marry me?/ Nothing could possibly go wrong with this plan."

"I heard a rumor that Annabeth is going to turn into a T-Rex. Thoughts?/I hate it when vital information leaks."
