From
pozorvlak, I was pointed in the direction of the Lipson-Shui corporate type test.
I scored as ICUE, Mad Scientist / Hacker, but with just a very short distance from ILUE, Gremlin.

There are a number of well-known systems for classifying people's personalities according to various measures such as introversion-extroversion, and organisations often use these schemes to categorize their
staff. Unfortunately, such methods do not capture a number of the most important aspects of an individual within an organisation; any corporate employee knows that whether someone is (for example)
extroverted or introverted is much less critical than (say) how important they are. The Lipson-Shiu test attempts to remedy this and other oversights by classifying along four alternative axes:
- Intelligent-Stupid
- Lawful-Chaotic
- Important-Unimportant
- Good-Evil
I scored as ICUE, Mad Scientist / Hacker, but with just a very short distance from ILUE, Gremlin.
- ILUE (Gremlin)
- Keep a close eye on these guys. They will follow instructions to the letter and use all their power and ingenuity to go against the spirit of what was intended. When you feel the sharp pain in your back, that is almost certainly the ILUE (example: Draco Malfoy)
- ICUE (Mad Scientist / Hacker)
- Displaying many of the same traits as the ICUG (Inventor), the ICUE combines these with a dangerously antisocial streak. May employ someone called Igor and mutter things like "Small minded fools! I'll show them all!" (example: Victor Frankenstein)
