everybody wanna tell you the meaning of music
Since people seem to be wondering this, the percentages measure how much you are introverted or sensing or whatever. If you get 1% introverted, that means you are basically in the middle between introverted and extraverted. If you get 20%, you would be decently introverted, and if you are 100%, extremely introverted.

Go here to determine your MBTI type if you don't know already. This may seem like a lot of those stupid "what ___ are you?" quizzes online, but it's not. Although MBTI is used in business and is generally well regarded, don't put too much into it, especially when it rigidly defines you. Jung and a lot of those old guys were a little loony, and self-testing is kinda hit or miss anyway.
I made this thread to see if runners would gravitate towards a certain type. I'm thinking more INTJ's, the J being important to be pedantic enough to have good runs, and the I to fit the gamer stereotype I guess. T/F, I'm guessing there's more T's, but might have some F's based on what type of game you like. N/S I really don't know which would be more common for speedrunning.
Edit: Since I made this thread, I've come to think that the INTJ on tasvideos would be very strong, but the people I've met here at SDA seem to be more diverse (every gaming site is mostly introverts though).
Another Edit! Cromarty has volunteered to track the types of the people who have responded so far in this thread, for the good of Science.

As for me, I get a very strong INFP, the "healer idealist." I have to admit, the INFP description matches me way too perfectly (including the negatives), it's almost creepy. A lot of people say this when they read their type description, btw. And it's not just you can read the ambiguous things how you like. I don't agree when I read any of the others.
Explanation: This is all off the top of my head, so somebody correct me if they know better.
There are 4 axes that are each on a continuum: Introverted/Extroverted, iNtuitive/Sensing, Thinking/Feeling, and Perceiving/Judging. Each set is independent, but within each set it's a sliding scale between two opposites, like a confidence interval. 78% strength introverted for you means that you are very introverted and very NOT extroverted. The 1% sensing means that you fall about halfway in between intuitive and sensing, just on the sensing side.
I guess I can overly generalize what each factor means:
Introverted: like to keep to yourself
Extroverted: like the company of others
Intuitive: feel out the situation using your intuition
Sensing: use what your 5 senses tell you, this can also be thought of as concrete vs abstract
Thinking: rely more on rational thought, act more calculating
Feeling: rely more on emotions, act more empathic
Perceiving: go with the flow, not too uptight
Judging: control freak, want organization
