What kind of subsim skipper are you?

[TheBlobThing]

Casual for me too! And that conclusion was spot-on!

NUKE SUBSIM SKIPPER
Periscopes are for wimps. Let's face it, any snapperhead can bring a WWII subsim to periscope depth, lock onto the red triangle and plug away. Real men never get closer than 8000 yards to their target. Your subsim of choice is made by a company in Waterford, Conn. You thrive on complex Target-Motion Analysis equations, deciphering broadband contacts, and gauging ESM signal strength. You are paler than Siberian stripper and proud of it. You long for the day you can take your Seawolf class nuke into an online game against a whole fleet of Type VIICs. One ADCAP equals "make my day".

Sometimes when an old thread gets dredged up we wonder why, and make rude comments.

I'm glad to see that new members have found this one again. It deserves to be noticed.

and I've actually been around for awhile. I was searching for something and happened upon it. I don't think I had ever done it for whatever reason and couldn't resist. Like you I thought this was a great thread and am not suprised that other who missed it jumped right in with taking the quiz. My result kind of make me want to start playing Dangerous Waters some again. Breaks my heart to think it could be the last of that breed, I so love commanding the nuke boats.

You cut your teeth plotting attacks in Gato, sank 28,000 tons in your first Aces of the Deep patrol, and played Dangerous Waters at 100% realism. You scoff at wannabes who whine about some niggling detail in a subsim but use the red triangle-infested auto TDC and auto-map updates. You never, ever, use anything but full realism.
You are the "sim" in Subsim.

CASUAL SUBSIM SKIPPERYou fell in love with Aces of the Deep. Your playing style is relaxed, more for fun than historical accuracy. You always play Sub Command or Dangerous Waters from the NavMap (rightclick is your friend), if you ever ventured to play them at all. Probably you prefer WWII subsims like Silent Hunter 3, SH4 and Aces. You may try the manual TDC, but you prefer to leave the auto map contacts on, (blank maps scare you). Even though you know submarine skippers missed targets occasionally in real life, you cannot resist reloading a mission to take another shot at a 10,000-tonne troopship that got away. One ship, one torpedo, finished off with the deck gun--that's the creed you live by.
