Adventures on Turtle Island

Adventures on Turtle Island

Edit:

Welcome to Turtle Island!

What began as a discussion about personality types based on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, quickly found a few of us marooned on an Island in the shape of a turtle (see below), in the South Pacific. We are currently having all kinds of adventures using our MBTI types to work out what might happen. If you're looking for some light-hearted fun, everyone is welcome to come along to stay or just visit. (You can get an idea of your MBTI here if you're interested.) Recently we found a (non-existent) suggestion box on the Island, we think it's come from an elusive island neighbour, so you're welcome to just fly (or swim) past and drop us some suggestions too.

Niqueeta wrote a fabulous prelude to Turtle Island here:

Turtle Island : The Night Before

Spookytookims has written some awesome episodes which can be found here:

The First Morning

Turtle Island episode 2

Turtle Island episode 3 (this one even has pictures!)

Turtle Island episode 4: Shipwreck Salvage

Turtle Island: The Lurgi Strikes (part 1)

Turtle Island: The Lurgi Strikes (part 2)

We now have a welcome sign which is also our Island flag:

And here we are in a message in a bottle on the sand as drawn by Lil-Caterpillar!

Here are some views of our Island - isn't it spectacular?!

Looking forward to bumping in to you!

This is how it all began....

****************

Personality and what makes us us is something I find really interesting and I think there would be a few of us out there who share that interest.

@Spookytookims and I were having a chat about MBTI and the differences in our 'types'. I've found myself pondering what factors in our personalities might influence our interactions and the way a deeper understanding of people may improve communication. I like thinking about what makes two or more people 'click' or not.

While it's difficult to imagine the world being split into a small number of personality 'types', I am interested in what different personality tests offer us in terms of gaining insight or understanding.

Maybe an interesting discussion if anyone wants to join 🙂

Re: Adventures on Turtle Island

@Former-Member how about drawing a shipwreck ... off the island and maybe a few of the main characters like cheerbear, phoenix, the vorticon hiding somewhere.. your cute caterpillar that's in the 3rd episode I think it is on.. climbing on the shipwreck? Can draw spooky in there too if you want (ep3 has that pic I think?) .. and remember there's now 3 permanent carebears... the brown and yellow ones as well as cheerbear grylls.... also lisajane... and then the newcomers bella the cat and sherry the dog. (not sure how they are getting there yet mind you working on that at the moment!).. so heaps to choose from in that to put on the wreck.

Anyhow that's an idea for you. I'll be back later but thought I'd throw that idea to you.

Re: Adventures on Turtle Island

Yay, @Appleblossom, you big softie! (that's what the INFP traits suggested to me).

My percentages: I = 47%, N = 12%, F = 34%, P = 31%

I like the sound of your treehouse. Do you mind if I build one in the tree next door?

Hi all other turtle islanders. It's becoming a tribe here!

In response to: Re: Adventures on Turtle Island
