(Edit: Sorry, my score was 131, not 130. I missed one question)
-
i got 197. Is this a proper purity test (IE the higher the score, the less your life has been affected by Amiga)?
-
89.
Pretty feeble but I told no lies.

No, it's reversed... The higher score, the more Amiga-31337 you are :-)

Your score: 141
Max score: 436

@1500
Well, I don't think 89 is bad. For example, if you have 30 Amigas you get 30 points for that. Some answers gives more than one point. Check the HTML source to see how unfair I've been :-)
-
There's not a 1080 in the monitor section :-(
I had to click on other 15khz even though MY monitor says Amiga and has a checkmark on it.
-
@Wain
It would have given you the same points anyway, so don't feel bad about it. If I would list EVERY piece of hardware you would die of old age before reaching the end ;-)
-
@carls
Ah - I see where I've clocked the points now - lots of upgrades and my 15-year old nightmare of a startup-sequence! :-)

I got 126. I'm well chuffed.

I just made a test run with very scarce answers but still not what I would consider an Amiga illiterate. I ended up with 42 points.
Perhaps it's too hard to score high... Well, at least it's equally hard for all :-)

OK, Its not really an amiga "purity" test if the scores are backward, but at least that means i'm winning ;-)

Looks like I'm fairly Amiga corrupted. My score was boosted by my large hardware collection, and the fact I remembered acronyms and have used a lot of paint programs. ;-)

I got a 90. ahhh the trip down memory lane.

158 mostly because I have so much "Amiga crap", as my wife calls it.

I want to know why COBOL was there? I think there might of been 1 COBOL compiler for the Amiga, but was it ever used?
(I did check it anyway) :-)
-
I got 102 even after selling my Amiga 4000. I do run WinUAE but still... how long do you stay pure ? I'm sure I got most of my score purely on my knowledge of my past Amigas and their programs.
:-)
-
It didn't say you had to code it on an Amiga... It just asked if you could do it.

Hmm, no mention of Lisa in the custom chips section. For extra hardness, you could add the AAA chipset ladies (whose names I forget)

I'd get one extra point, if you added "CanDO" to the list of programming languages. :-)

exactly the same :-)
-edit- strange testing result.
I'm not a programmer, not interested in Demo Scene and i own only 2 Amiga . . .bhoo!!
-
I was thinking I'd get a humble score, looks like its pretty hard to get 200+ without lots of money/lies. ;-)
163 out of 436 = 63% pure.
If only I'd known two more people and umpteen programming languages, maybe a few more gfx proggies a little better, had more money...
...or maybe its better that I'm still marginally Amiga pure, since my normal purity score is abysmal ('Ever used a purity test as a checklist of things to do?'),

Ditto.
CarlS, I think you should rename the test though. As you said, this is more of a "31337 7357" ;) (how experienced/informed are you?") than a Purity test ("are you a fanatic nutcase?").

Feels good to see that so many of you like the test :-)
For correctness, it has been renamed to "Amiga Eleetness Test".
Would be fun to see if anyone can go beyond 270, you'd have to have a lot of hardware and be a very productive person to pull that through :-)
-
@iamaboringperson
I want to know why COBOL was there?
Some alternatives are just thrown in for fun. How about Snobol, Smalltalk and AZap? Or the last question... :)
-
Hi benJamin :-)
No need to lie or get full o'money to go over 200 points :-D
Loving, using, having amigas since the very first time will suffice :-)
Personnaly the only Amigas I bought new in the box was my first A500 and my first A1200.
All the other ones was bought used at bargain prices, I made numerous "give your old hardware and get a brand new one for less" offers when I was an Amiga retailer, and I found uses for almost all the Amigas I got back like this and never sold them back ;-)
As a Commodore official dealer and Amiga enthusiastic user, I know very well about all it can be about it, have met almost every key man (or woman) behind it's creation until the demise of Commodore (except for Jay Miner, too late, I regret it a lot :cry: ) and read all I can get my hands on about it, and I'm still learning eighteen years later ;-)
And now, it is easyier and cheapper than ever to have a big Amiga collection, as some of us are selling their machines to get the new AmigaOnes or peg.
I love my Amigas, and will never sell them :-D
(webmaster : what about a heart shouting smiley thingie to illustrate that sort of "cri du coeur"?

@ voxel
You've five years on me, I've accidently got an email from Carl Sassenrath, happy day...
I think I'll go over 200 when I get an A1 and actually release some of my work (I didn't tick 'cause I'd feel guilty ;-) ).
In reference to collecting, yes, it is the best time since my first A500 and other zealous and jealous friends of the era.
Maybe I'll buy PageStream for the A1 I don't have, with my Tax return. I do have 68k, and PageStream is my favourite power-app. after Cinema 4D... ;-)
Maybe I'll climb to the giddy heights of 220 someday. ;-D
An A1 would look nice with an A1200 and CD32 next to it, wouldn't it?

Am I the lowest-scoring so far?!
I only own an A1200 and a CD32, and I don't venture beyond Workbench or 68k, so perhaps that explains my low score!

iamaboringperson,
I used to use NRCOBOL on the Amiga way back when. Mainly to keep my own COBOL skills sharpened from my old college days.

133 here, which, considering that I (a) haven't used AmigaOS as my primary OS for years and (b) have been completely overlooked by whatever deity handed out artistic talent - therefore finding myself unable to tick anything in the graphics/music creativity sections - is actually a respectable score.
Either that or I'm a really sad git. :-P
-

Not great but mostly down to the fact I only have one Amiga and don't use it a great deal.

Got interested by the Amiga during the "dark ages" of Gateway etc on my brothers little miggy. Never got round to bying one though (got lost to the dark side) byt maybe one day I'll get a miggy for myself ;-)
-
Only 137 for me.
I got tired of ticking things and just scrolled to the bottom. =shrug=

54 :(

Thinking about it, I really don't like this test. For a start, everyone knows money is a massive barrier buying Amiga hardware, even if you can find it. So richer folk automatically will have a higher score :-(

@that_punk_guy
Well, you can't please everyone now can you :-)
The test is for fun. It's not a competition.
I just figure that if you own for example a Video Toaster, a TBC, a framegrabber and a digitizer you have been/are working professionally with your Amiga, which in turn makes you more Amiga Eleet :-)

OTOH, it reflects well on the richer folk that they spend their money on Amiga stuff. :)
I now see that CarlS reminded us of that it's just a simple test for fun, not a competition. This made me come to think of an actual competition among Swedish "professional overclockers". The one with the most megahertz would win. I guess the hardware dealers were extra happy while that lasted... ;) Big surprise: the guy who bought the fastest system won! 8-O

What is a BlazeMonger, I knew all acronyms except that.
Why isn´t Modula-2 among the programming languages? And that Scala scripting language whatwasitsnameagain?
-
I scored a dismal 105....
It's a fix dammit!
:-D
-
@Bloodline
Yup, at least I think AROS is Amiga related. (It's also mentioned in the "OS Projects" question)
@Lecta
Sorry, I don't log anything like that. Perhaps I should, though... :-)
@Dan
Well, search Aminet for Blazemonger and you just might find out.
Also, you could pick Snobol instead of Modula-2. The bizarreness factor should even out :-)
Oh, by the way. Scala's scripting language is called "Lingua" and I already have a Scala option in the Graphics/Multimedia section of the test.

What's so bizarre about Modula-2? There were at least 2 flavors of it for the Amiga, maybe more. I used Benchmark M2. Also, there was at least one flavor of Oberon, maybe more, but I decided that was too much typing and switched to AmigaE.
Also, I didn't check Boxer although I feel I own one even if I don't possess it :-(
Oh, only 71.

Hi dan :-)
>And that Scala scripting language whatwasitsnameagain?
It's name was Lingua or Lingo, one of the two ;-)
Damn! I must fire my scala station soon to confirm that name ;-)

Bizarre as in non-mainstream. I bet there's a lot more people who know C, C++ or even Assembler than there is Modula-2 coders. :-)

I bet it was Lingua. Scala and lingua are both italian words, meaning respectively "ladder" and "language".

Lingo is the name of scripting language for Macromedia Director. Lingua then, should be for Scala MM, but not sure about that ;)

I'm sure that's true but it is not as bizarre as many in your list. In any case, the Modula-2's have not been supported (as far as I know) in many years. :-(
