EVE is supposedly home to the largest concentration of sociopaths in the gaming work. Lets test this hypothesis. Twisted

I'm clearly terrible at identifying the forced false emotions of people who look constipated. Sad

Indeed. After over-analyzing a couple of pictures I got fed up and hit Ctrl+F4, would probably have got at most 10 if I had completed the test. For instance, saw a guy trying (emphasis on trying) to look happy, which definitely ruled out happiness as the emotion they were looking for...

Yeah... Apparently not.

Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.

Your Score: 14/20

Not bad. Your score means you're slightly better than the average at reading expressions.

16/20. If everyone was so transparent with their emotions I'd be alot farther in life than I am. As it stands I'm actually very bad at reading real world emotions as they are often veiled.

The expressions were really horrible though, they should just grab pictures off of the net that would have people posing in better context rather than 7 forms of constipation.

15/20.

I mistook related emotions for each other, like fear and embarassment or shame and sadness. Seriously the "fear" face looked more embarassed than the embarassment face. As these are actors not doing the greatest job, I'm quite satisfied with my results.

Creepy. Creepy is a displayable emotion, right?

Some of them looked like they were faking it and I'm sure number 19 expressed flatulence, but I couldn't find it among the options.

13/20.

Was a bit odd trying to deduce the facial expressions of people who were coached into doing it as opposed to a spontaneous reaction.

Note to self, get a photographer, some laxatives and update their image of shame... Oops

yeah, I was wondering "who in their right minds makes faces like this?".
I stopped after about 10, I got maybe 2 of those. I do much better reading vocal cues, I can almost always tell when someone is lying to me. as well at being able to pick up on the hidden emotions better than the expressed emotions.
