I was bored, so I pulled this topic from my old otaku-station forums (site will probably not return :()
Otaku Measurement Index (OMI - pronounced 'oh, my!').
This is how you calculate your offical nerdiness rating for our little community here:
You get one point for every legal Anime/anime-based movie DVD/VHS {Total as 'D'}.
You get 1 point per manga or anime magazine {Total as 'M'}.
Two points for every anime/manga t-shirt{Total as 'T'} you own.
Two points for every poster/Wallscroll {Total as 'W'} that is hanging on your bedroom wall.
One Point for every page of completed fanfic/doujin {Total as 'F'}.
Ten points for each anime convention {Total as 'C'} that you have attended.
Ten points for each set of cosplay {Total as 'P'} that you own.
One point for every legal anime/Seiyuu/anime-game CD {Total as 'S'}.
One additional point for each 'D'/'M'/'S' that is a Japanese Import {Total as 'I'}.
Adding this list of 'otaku traits' {D+M+T+W+F+C+P+S+I} together will give you your Basic Obsessiveness Value (BOV: thus BOV = D+M+T+W+F+C+P+S+I). Finally, divide your BOV by 100 to get your final OMI rating (OMI = BOV/100). Depending on if you are a 'closet otaku'(more single point traits = easy to hide from people) or 'public otaku' (more multiple point traits = outward expression of 'otaku-ness')will effect how you see your result as 'degrading' or something to be proud of.
Gerenal OMI progression chart:
Less than 0.25: you are still a nOOb, you are looked down on by other otaku.
Between 0.25 - 0.5: You are a true fan....beware the temptations to continue!
Between 0.5 - 0.75: Otaku-in-training! You are a hard-core fan with danger of overdose!
Between 0.75 - 1.0: Otaku!! All others shun you and avoid you at all cost, you are lost to the world of reality!
Between 1.0 - 1.5: Otaku Champion! Go forth and corrupt the 'innocent'!
Between 1.5 - 2.0: Otaku Lord! You are looked up to by all lesser Otaku!
Greater than 2.0: Primus Otaku: Maybe an Anime-God, maybe immortal, maybe just needs a new hobby...

So whats yours? :D
Update: Don't feel like manually doing this, then cheat OMI Calculation Script (http://www.capturedwings.net/extras/omi.php), this little script will do the dirty work for you, just fill in the details and hit 'Calculate'
-
what?! I'm gonna do Math? alright...
mine's 0.5, don't ask for the details.. :D
You are a true fan....beware the temptations to continue! hahah! it's so low...
a PHP script page that will calculate this would be cool..heheh!
-
nice idea, I'll give it a shot shortly (after I've had dinner), won't be that hard
- First post modified :D
-
ehhh....i got this
Primus Otaku: Maybe an Anime-God, maybe immortal, maybe just needs a new hobby...
:D :rotfl: I'll post my precise report later...coz i'm gonna do the official counting...the result above is just by estimation XD But i'm no anime-god....but somehow the result turned out...gah
-
use the script, it won't make a mistake
-
yep i did use the script but i just put in the numbers out of estimation XD
more precise figures would be posted l8ter :D
-
*waits for ashleygirl to give right results*
-
wha?
i took the test using the script and I get 0.5 but the rating it gives is:
Rating: you are still a nOOb, you are looked down on by other otaku.
why do I get the feeling I'm being cheated? :D
-
thats very very odd, I have another look at the script.
-- All is fine :D
-
my bad.. :tongue:
-
I'm glad, that script toke me, *ponders for a moment* about 30 minutes to create :D
-
ano...
D- 15 =15+1 =16
M- 2 =2+1=3
T- 3 =6
W- 3 =6
F- 4 =4
C- 1=10
P- 1 =10
S- 5 =5+1=6
I- 1 =1
BOV=62
OMI=0.62
hmm..otaku in training! ^^
you should include number of manga volumes, it might up some people's scores.^^
-
thats the second text box - manga and manga magazines
-
ooh...then maybe I should re-calculate...
-
Lesee...
d = 0
m = 5
t = 0
w = 0
f = 174
c = 0
p = 0
s = 0
i = 0
d + m + t + w + f + c + p + s + i
0 + 5 + 0 + 0 + 174 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0
(0 • 7) + (5 + 174) = 179
179 Ă· 100 = 1.79
1.79 - Otaku Lord!!
You are looked up to by all lesser Otaku!
Wow, and just for writing too. ^_^ Of course, you can't really call me an otaku, as I am Japanese and doing so would be an offensive term, therefore resulting in your future torture and/or death.
-
I want to ask does posting in a forum on discussing n anime count? lol
-
yes, I know the true meaning of the word, however most of us aren't japanese, but I'll make a point of it.
-
WHOO takeru.. ur score is so high.. *stares at the screen.. lolz haha i'm a 0.5!! haha.. most of the stuff on the thing is 0.. haha o well i'm gonna boost my score later on this year.. XD

You are a true fan....beware the temptations to continue!
LOLZ! I should try to get more merchandise!
-
i got about the same as that ^
but i'm a little ashamed cos a lot of my stuff isn't 100% legal...fansubs aren't illegal!!...are they?
-
if the anime is licensed they are illegal (as I understand it)
-
u mean...if we d/l anime that's licensed? yeah i know that but everything else is okay... the japanese industry are aware of it but they don't really care... and if they do they license it anyway
-
who knows :)

I got this:

Hmm, and that quiz didn't ask how much merchandise you've made yourself or if you pretend to actually BE a character from an anime and manga. :rotfl:
