how competitive are you?

[Sheep]

how competitive are you? will you do your best to do better than your friends or others in a video game, sport, project, etc? how bothered are you by losing or not coming out on top?

 

[gimmepie]

Out of everyone here I bet I'm the most competitive.

 

[Sorviknight]

I used to be very competitive, especially when it comes to grades, but not very much now. There are still some remains of it here and there though.

 

[Alex]

I'm very competitive. I like to win.

 

[AlolanRattata]

Ultra competitive. To the point where I do not understand people who do not get extremely frustrated at losing. Especially if it happens constantly.

 

[Her]

chill when winning, not pleased when losing

i will tend to throw logic and reason out the window as an explanation for why i'm not doing as well as i should be lmao

 

[Homeskulled Kid]

Very, but I suck at everything. That's not a good combination. And I am a notorious bad sport when I'm psyched up, though there has been some desensitisation going on over the past millennium. After losing every competition from day one... you can't always have the energy to hurl the remote at the screen and storm out the room, or choke to death on the froth in your mouth.

When other people are about, I curb the mindless violence and settle for indistinct chuckling of suppressed rage.

 

[gimmepie]

I'm still more competitive than you uninspired plebs.

 

[mariopepper]

I am very competitive, in the studying, in relationship, and wherever i am

 

[LuckyStar]

I am competitive only in my studying and work, in all other cases I am a rather calm person.

 

[Starlight]

These days, hardly at all.

 

[mishy.]

not really. sometimes i'll get competitive but if i know that my skills aren't up to par with the person i'm competing with i'll try but it's like... ''eh whatever" if that makes sense

I wish to take everything in a positive way, whether I lose or win. I compete to do better amongst the contenders. Definitely, it helps me to develop every time.

I am quite competitive when it comes to school as rankings in subjects are important but I'm not that competitive about anything else. Whilst losing doesn't necessarily feel great, I feel like it's nicer to be chill about it or see it as an opportunity for improvement. :)

 

[Palamon]

I'm not competitive. I honestly just put in the best effort I can, and call it a day. I don't want to be first at anything, and I don't really care if I lose.

 

[Megan]

In some areas more than in others. Seeing others surpass me in areas I'm interested in sure enough makes me want to improve my skill, as well.

I recommend being competitive. I needn't be someone else. It's good enough to compete with the you of yesterday. :)

 

[moon]

Nah, I hate losing and don't know how to handle winning so I dislike competing in general haha.

 

[Fleurdelis]

in terms of video games, VERY. I strife to improve every time I play and defeats haven't stopped me yet so..

 

[hotsushi-kun]

I am trying to be competitive, but i am easliy scared for violent things!

 

[baire]

not competitive at all! I used to be very competitive when I was younger but nowadays in university I'm fairly average compared to peers/friends so it mostly seems futile. I still put lots of effort in stuff I'm passionate about for the sake of enjoying myself

especially thanks to my horrid performance on math contest questions?? for one of my classes we're looking at high school contest problems so I got the question
"The points of a plane are colored red or blue. Then one of the two colors contains points with any distance." and kids I knew in high school would breeze right through it. meanwhile I'm in third year uni and probably wouldn't have ever solved it
solution in the textbook:

Spoiler:

Suppose the theorem is not true. Then the red points miss a distance a and the blue points miss a distance b. We may assume a ≤ b. Consider a blue point C. Construct an isosceles triangle ABC with legs AC = BC = b and AB = a. Since C is blue, A cannot be blue. Thus, it must be red. The point B cannot be red since its distance to the red
point A is a. But it cannot be blue either, since its distance to the blue point C is b. Contradiction!

dunno if they're geniuses or if I'm just an idiot but it's w/e, as long as I get paid enough to eat and afford a roof over my head I should be fine
