CFAN: Interactive: The Comic Fanfic Purity Test

Comic Fanfic: How Pure Are You?

Please note that the following test is, indeed, skewed towards the "community" aspects of the comic fanfic genre. However, I'm figuring that the more "tainted" you are by interaction with other ficcers, the less "pure" you are. People who sit at home clutching notebooks full of stories they never show anyone don't count. ;)

It's easy: if you answer "yes" to a question, check the corresponding box.
