the listmaker archetypes · 12 on the chart · 0 currently true of you

What kind of listmaker are you?

Every one of these is read off the ledger — what you actually did, when you did it, and how often you changed your mind. None of them is awarded, none costs chips, and there is no better one to be. You either are one or you aren't. Your verdict lives on your stats page →

the bar: 12 moves on your ledger before anything is diagnosed at all · you have 0

• THE WAFFLER

  the patch →

  Moves the same thing over and over and lands roughly where it began.

• THE MIDNIGHT RANKER

  the patch →

  Does the work between 1am and 5am, when taste is least defensible.

• THE MONOGAMIST

  the patch →

  Has many lists. Works on one.

• THE COLLECTOR

  the patch →

  Parks more than they rank. The deck is the real list.

• THE ESSAYIST

  the patch →

  Will not rank a thing without saying why.

• THE SETTLER

  the patch →

  Places a thing once and never touches it again.

• THE PRESSMAN

  the patch →

  Treats every version as worth keeping. Presses more than most people edit.

• THE CONTRARIAN

  the patch →

  Ranks the same things as everyone else, in nobody else's order.

• THE LURKER-TURNED-BELIEVER

  the patch →

  Nothing for weeks, then everything in one sitting.

• THE ARCHITECT

  the patch →

  Would rather build a new list than argue about an existing one.

• THE HIGH ROLLER

  the patch →

  Converts opinions into chips, and chips into cardboard, immediately.

• THE TYPO ARTIST

  the patch →

  Adds things the database has never heard of, spelling optional.

the taxonomy grows as the ledger does · nothing here is stored, all of it is recomputed from your own moves every time you look
