Shouldn't the next step be actual validation (which looks nothing like asking people what they think about the reports)?

Without validation, it's just a nice-sounding horoscope.

You are right, Yodon. Validation needs a minimum of 500 or 1000 uses, no? And I don't have that yet. To get there I first need to get to a product that people find relevant, so any feedback is good feedback at this early stage. Based on what I got here, I am going to reduce the trait pairs from 12 to 8, and re-write the questions, and put less questions to make it quicker to complete, and tweak the report format. I'll publish a V2 in a few days. Thanks for the feedback.
