Well, yes, but too much. There are universal qualities tied to animals, professions, classes and the mythological factions of HOMM, but if I say "you're like Russia" that has entirely different quality to it than if elodin said that or an actual Russian person.
Countries are too much open to interpretation and nationalism and jingoism etc etc etc.

Alright, classes or professions are going to get my support then. (Thanks for pointing that out Dag, didn't think of it)

I guess factions are my choice then. I feel like there's almost too many professions, and some that are too similar to others.

Not that big of a list, unfortunately. I was hoping we could get more of the OSM crowd involved.

I didn't. I assumed that if I put a link to it in my sig, everyone who would be interested would participate. But now that you've mentioned it: JJ, Salamandre, artu, Elodin, Corribus, and Hobbit! If you're reading this, you should participate in the Sociogram. It's fun.

Yep, I shed some cybernetic tears to that fact.
edit:
I dont think somebody should feel bad for not visiting OSM. You might get in happy and leave the computer raging because the other guy behind the monitor has some issues.

Albeit true, I wouldn't call it a damned thread, I really like it. Lots of good memories and quite an interesting read, especially retroactively. I'm biased though due to the work I've put into this stuff. Thank you for the compliment :3, I'll try to be around more.
Anyway back on topic here. It seems interest isn't as hot as it used to be. Completely understandable since I haven't done a good job advertising it or being around on HC the past week (or year for that matter lol) and a big portion of people have done this before and the other portion is just too indiffirent i suppose, don't really know I don't know the new generation that well.
Here's the thing though as cute as mvass sig is I don't really think it's gonna bring all the boys to the yard.
This isn't for any group of HCers inparticular, its for people who are curious and would like to see how others see them. No real downsides to it really.
I'll try to keep the visibility on this thread up over the next 3 days if by the end of those 3 days we don't have 10-12 participants (I don't know is that a lot by todays standards?) I don't think we should do it. Also I'll give the whole spirit animal thing some thought haven't had a lot of satisfying options so far in my opinion.

So far we have:
fred
Vindicator
master_learn
mvassilev
gnomes2169
NoobX
Tsar-Ivor
DagothGares
Adrius
Xerox
carcity
With DD just doing a lot of talking so far but not wanting to take part if I understood him correctly,
some Makkur person from the OSM who wanted to check it out but only arrived here to tell me the link that sent him here didn't work
and Joonas the legend that'll only participate if both Dagoth and me go for it. Dagoth is already in, as for myself I have no intention of joining. Not cause I don't like doing this stuff but because I have been a non-factor in this place for a long long time and thusly haven't had any interaction with people on here. I would simply have nothing productive (and more importantly I wouldn't have the ability to make any accurate statements with any certainty lol) to say. And while a good few of the people on this list know me and have a pretty good grasp of who I am, due to my absence they would have nothing new to say about me. With the exception of maybe Dagoth who has to hear me snow and moan when we DnD and my Fighter doesn't hit squat.
So as much as I'd like for you to be a part of this Joonas I'm not gonna join for the reasons stated above, my bad.
ANYWAYS this makes it 11 people. Previously I said I'd start it off with this many but please lets still try to get a few more in. The list is kinda tiny and the more the better the results in the end so come on now don't be shy people.
