Select FOUR

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

There are five categories.

  1. Book Smarts (25)
  2. Common Sense (25)
  3. Good Looks (25)
  4. Athleticism (25)
  5. Charisma (25)

You can choose Book Smarts X 4, but then you’d be out of choices (and Stephen Hawking). And there’s limited quantities of each, so if everyone scoops up the Charisma early, you can’t choose it. If I have time, I’ll periodically tally what’s left in stock, but it sure would be helpful if you all post what’s left after you choose.

Oh, and you’re starting with a clean slate, so to speak, so no saying “Well, my IQ is 1,000, so I’ll just take Athleticism X 4 and I’ll be a genius and a jock”. It just don’t work that way. If you pick Athleticism X 4, you’ll just be a dumb jock. Of course, you might just end up rich, too, with a fat NFL contract (in which case being big, dumb and ugly might not matter all that much).

And since I’m the OP, I’ll go first. I’ll take one each of Book Smarts, Common Sense, Good Looks and Charisma. Athleticism? Meh. I’ll stick with Golf. That leaves

  1. Book Smarts (24)
  2. Common Sense (24)
  3. Good Looks (24)
  4. Athleticism (25)
  5. Charisma (24)

And thanks, it’s sure to come in handy!

I’ve had book smarts my whole life. I’d like to see life from the other side. I pick the other four.

I’ll do the same as elbows and the OP, please. When does it start kicking in?

  1. Book Smarts (22)
  2. Common Sense (22)
  3. Good Looks (22)
  4. Athleticism (25)
  5. Charisma (22)

I’ll take the Lindsey Lohan.

That’s Good Looks x4

Factoring in Pygmy Rugger, that leaves us with:

  1. Book Smarts (22)
  2. Common Sense (21)
  3. Good Looks (17)
  4. Athleticism (24)
  5. Charisma (21)

I’ll take 2 of the Book Smarts, 1 ration of Common Sense, and 1 of Charisma. At my age, Good Looks are meaningless and Athleticism foolish.

We are now at:

  1. Book Smarts (20)
  2. Common Sense (20)
  3. Good Looks (17)
  4. Athleticism (24)
  5. Charisma (20)

Me four(?)

  1. Book Smarts (19)
  2. Common Sense (19)
  3. Good Looks (16)
  4. Athleticism (24)
  5. Charisma (19)

I’ll take two Charismas, a Good Looks and a Common Sense. If I don’t get to the top, I’m still gonna have an awful lot of fun tryin’.

  1. Book Smarts (19)
  2. Common Sense (18)
  3. Good Looks (15)
  4. Athleticism (24)
  5. Charisma (17)

Interesting. I’ll have to go with Book Smarts, Common Sense, Charisma and Good Looks.

Totals:

  1. Book Smarts (19)
  2. Common Sense (19)
  3. Good Looks (16)
  4. Athleticism (24)

I’ll be Patrick Ewing.

That leaves

  1. Book Smarts (15)
  2. Common Sense (19)
  3. Good Looks (16)
  4. Athleticism (20)
  5. Charisma (19)

I already got everything else :D, so let’s go with:

Good Looks x3
Athleticism x 1

  1. Book Smarks 15
  2. Common Sense 19
  3. Good Looks 13
  4. Athleticism 19
  5. Charisma 19

The way athleticism has been avoided so far it looks like the last few posters may be left to choose between a David Wells, a Bill Walton, and a Sam Cassell.

14

Let’s see, I think charisma can make up for good looks, so I’ll take book smarts, two common senses, and a charisma, leaving

  1. Book Smarks 14
  2. Common Sense 17
  3. Good Looks 13
  4. Athleticism 19
  5. Charisma 18

I’ll take two Book Smarts and two Common Senses – I’ve done pretty well with that combo so far.

  1. Book Smarts 12
  2. Common Sense 15
  3. Good Looks 13
  4. Athleticism 19
  5. Charisma 18
16

I’ll take a couple Athleticisms, since that’s definitely my weakest area. And maybe a little more Common Sense and Charisma. Don’t need any more Book Smarts, I don’t even need what I have already. Ditto Good Looks.

  1. Book Smarts 12
  2. Common Sense 14
  3. Good Looks 13
  4. Athleticism 17
  5. Charisma 17

I’ll take two charismæ*, a book smart, and a good look.

  1. Book Smarts 11
  2. Common Sense 14
  3. Good Looks 12
  4. Athleticism 17
  5. Charisma 15

*i know, i know

clears throat

Too bad for you, aerodave. Looks like you’ve got some decent athletic skills, but you’re also butt-ugly and dumb as a sack of doorknobs. Now outta my way. Just as soon as these characteristics kick in, I’m taking my four good looks’s and camera-whoring my way to fame.

19

I’ll have one each of book smarts, common sense, athleticism* and charisma.

*seems to be way under-rated. If you were trying as hard as I’ve been to be healthy and fit, you’d wish for a bit, too.

  1. Book Smarts 10
  2. Common Sense 13
  3. Good Looks 12
  4. Athleticism 16
  5. Charisma 14

Hrmm…I see. Guess I needed the common sense before I posted.

So I’m an ugly jock now. But at least I’m charming and I know my head from my ass. Book Smarts are overrated anyway.
