I don't know or care if mine has changed, but last I was tested (not sure how many years ago) it was 152. I'm a bit of a slacker though.

If all your IQs are right I feel stupid T^T... I got a score of 143.... And I know I'm not.... I'm taking 3 high school classes in 8th grade with an average of 93ish... Mainly cause I don't do hw... www.intelligencetest.com/images/charts/education.gif... If all of you score so high... Go beat the Ph.D ppl Whilst it's true that all the people here aren't being completely truthful about their current IQ levels, IQ is not necessarily a measurement of someone's knowledge. It's more of a measurement of your ability to think of certain values in certain ways. High-IQ people might be able to think better than lower-IQ people, but if they don't know anything, then it's nearly rendered moot. While people can be book-smart, they'll only be able to create formulaic responses or solutions to problems which may be the best viable option, but isn't the most realistic possibility. I'm taking most of this as a tested example as I took A-Level Maths (and got an A overall) and started off year 12 doing A-Level Physics, which is mostly maths, but with different formulae applied to real-life situations, and I flunked rather spectacularly (I passed by one mark), whereas one of my friends started Physics in year 12, and Maths near the end of year 12, and managed to get a B grade overall in both of them.

When I was 8 I had a professional IQ test for admission to the gifted program but apparently your IQ peaks when you're 8 .-. so I managed to reach an IQ high of 159 . . . but I think my actual score had something like a 174 in math and a 138 in reading or something . . .

The only time I had my IQ tested was in kindergarten (when I was about 5 years old) through my school's gifted program. At that point in time, my IQ was 137. That, however, was many years ago. I hope that my IQ has gone up since then...

It seems that you all had IQ tests as young 'uns, so I think they're just estimates of what you would be when your older just because you're able to do some basic tests....

Yeah, I took mine way back when. That would certainly explain why all these IQs are way too freaking high. 100 is average, remember?
Oh, and MF... I don't think ArchZero was trolling...

1. It's not flaming, genius.
2. I have an IQ of 3.

This is my question, is your intelligence quotient 3, or did you complete the test in such a way as to receive an intelligence quotient of 3? There is a difference, and I'm guessing the the last option is the correct one...
I have taken an intelligence quotient identifying test before, but it was long enough ago that I do not recall the result. I am unaware of how others would consider my intelligence quotient, but I am not interested enough to voluntarily take one from the Internet. [jk]If I ever do find out, I will be sure to brag about it...[/jk]

I haven't took a true iq test in a long time, but Im probaly a literal genius, considering Im advanced in every subject and am 4 years ahead in math. And trig is easy. Now. When I was doing the short trig section in geometry it was harder.
I think at least some of us are telling the truth. Think about the type of people who would actually be interested in powder.
And not be a n00b.

"And am 4 years ahead in math" does not seem like a quote from a genius, as most geniuses would care about grammar.
And I'm interested in powder, I'm not a n00b, and I ain't a genius. The world of PG players isn't divided into geniuses and n00bs.

And not be a n00b. If you are a genius, english isn't your strong point. I did trigonometry in year 8 (12-13 year olds) and in year 11 (15-16 year olds) I took part in a UK Maths Challenge and got a Gold Certificate for the Intermediate round (which the top 6-7% of all participants get). I was the only one in my school to get one. It's impossible to tell if someone is telling the truth or not. But to say that the only people who play PG (and I assume other games) are "geniuses" and "n00bs" is a stupid thing to say. A n00b is, by definition, someone who has been around a game, or games, for long enough to know better, and yet they act like a stubborn arse saying they know how to do stuff whilst they don't know how to do the simplest tasks. Anyone can be a n00b, even so-called "geniuses", and anyone can play PG. You seem to be another user who could be suffering from two-tone perception disease, whereby you can only see things in their extremes, black or white, no grey area. It's wholly possible that someone can have what's considered an "average" IQ of 100~ and still go to PG and create decent stuff in uploads. Your sort of posting will probably drive them away, though, cause you're saying "If your playing powder and you arent a genius, then youre a n00b"

I think what he meant by that is that only people of higher intelligence would be interested in playing powder and participating in all the complicated discussion that goes on here.

Ranting is what I do I'm calling shenanigans on the rest of the post though. He said that to enjoy Powder Game without being a n00b, you have to have a high IQ. Whether or not you like PG or any of the other Dan-Ball games is based on interests, not IQ. If I wasn't interested in video or computer games, I wouldn't be nearly as interested in this game as I am right now (and technically, I'm more into SR because that's more my style of game), and I would also have done much better in school as I wouldn't be distracted by the bleepy-bloopy vidgamagames every time homework was given out. I could think of a few "intelligent" people who wouldn't be interested in this game because their interests aren't the same as mine.

I'm not saying it is divided into n00bs and geniuses. I'm just saying generally more intelligent people are more interested in powder than less intelligent people. I'm also strong in English, just not on forums. Grammar isn't important on the forums. Lots of people here learned English as a second language, and what they write here has horrible grammar, but it is at least understandable.

I'm not saying it is divided into n00bs and geniuses. It did sound quite like it though. You said "I think at least some of us are telling the truth. Think about the type of people who would actually be interested in powder. And not be a n00b." That implies that to be interested in Powder Game, you have to either be a genius... or a n00b. I'm just saying generally more intelligent people are more interested in powder than less intelligent people. Did you take a census? Did you try and prove this through Q&A sessions or telling everyone you know to play PG? You can't assume that people who are intelligent are more likely to enjoy it than people who aren't as intelligent. I'm also strong in English, just not on forums. Grammar isn't important on the forums. Lots of people here learned English as a second language, and what they write here has horrible grammar, but it is at least understandable. If people learn English as a second language, then they have an excuse for their poor grammar and spelling. Your saying that you have strong English skills means that you have no excuse to type poorly. If you're not going to put any effort into your posts, why should anyone put any effort into reading them?
