Based on your answers, you are ESKA.
Breakdown: Achiever 26.67%, Explorer 93.33%, Killer 33.33%, Socializer 46.67%
ESKA players often see the game world as a great stage, full of things to see and people to meet. They love teaming up with people to get to the hard-to-see places, and they relish unique experiences.
The Bartle Test was originally designed for players of MUDs (multi-user dungeons) but continues to have applicability to virtual worlds of all kinds--especially MMORPGs. The test attempts to measure a player based on what they enjoy most about a game, based on four axes: The Four Bartle Catagories
People with high Achiever scores tend to prefer collecting points, levels, treasure and accomplishments that set them apart from other players--or simply present challenges.
People with high Explorer scores tend to enjoy finding all of the unique areas of the world, often enjoying the immersion of the experience. Finding a place with unique monsters and seeing what those monsters do is usually more fun for an Explorer than defeating the monsters themselves.
People with high Killer scores prefer the player-versus-player aspect of any game more than anything offered by the environment. They often relish the adrenaline and challenge of pitting themselves against real players.
People with high Socializer scores enjoy interacting with other people, forming organizations, and finding cooperative solutions to the challenges within the virtual world.
Acknowledgements: Thank you to Dr. Richard Bartle for the original design of this test, as well as Erwin Andreasen for maintaining the original test-taking database for many years.

Breakdown: Achiever 73.33%, Explorer 20.00%, Killer 86.67%, Socializer 20.00%
KASE players tends to enjoy the PVP aspect most of all, but also likes to pit themself against all the challenges of the PVE environment as well--although the latter is often a means to an end. This type of player will often enjoy PVP that focuses on their skill as an individual contributor (duels, and so forth) more than team-based PVP.
Hmm very interesting, the above was my score from where I took the test years ago, I just kept it and always copy pasted it...on a whim I took the test again, it appears my personality has changed a bit.
Based on your answers, you are AKES.
Breakdown: Achiever 80.00%, Explorer 46.67%, Killer 73.33%, Socializer 0.00%
AKES players like to be the best-of-the-best at everything the game has to offer. They like to be high on the ladders of whatever metrics the game uses, including PVP. They like the best gear, the most power, and they love being the 'first' at something. Their prowess in PVP is generally supported by a large degree of understanding and posession of the best equipment and skills.

WOW! That's 200%!!
ASEK players like to pit themselves against the grand-challenges of a virtual world. They see grouping and guilds/clans not only as an enjoyable aspect of the social environment, but also as a way to achieve goals that cannot be achieved as an individual.

I'm always surprised at how high I score on the social aspect of the Bartle. I'm not all that chatty, but I love cooperative team play. FFXI back in the renkei days was awesome. Still fun, but with most everyone tossing reneki out the window, there's less teamwork in a fight and that's not as fun for me as it was.

Breakdown: Achiever 66.67%, Explorer 66.67%, Killer 33.33%, Socializer 80.00%
SAEK players enjoy socializing more than anything else, but they also like to achieve the goals within the game. Often, the increase in social status that comes with defeating a powerful foe or finding a unique treasure is more important than the achievement itself. They also enjoy being part of a team that tries to accomplish great deeds, often finding as much satisfaction in the success of the group as with oneself.

Some of those questions....
When playing a video game, is it more fun to:
Have the highest score on the list?
Beat your best friend one-on-one?
Remind me of the aptitude test question:
Would you rather;
Visit a friend sick with a highly cominicable desease
Clean a uranial with a Q-tip
Well in any event....

It's not measuring the relative proportions, but rather how well you fit each single type. So, if you score 80% Exlporer, your an 80% fit there, not 80E and only 20 left for the rest.

Yeah thought that was the case but questions are kinda laid out poorly for that
