I have an idea of my Big 5 score. But just sometimes I get feedback which conflicts with my self-assessment. Therefore I'd like to hear about my outward (LW-wise) appearance on these.

The below lists the Big 5 traints and names standardized facets that you may consider in scoring.

I scored myself on these already and will post my self-assessment if at least 5 people score me. I'm a regular and you can find some of my posts linked on my User Page.

As promised my self-assessment (rot13, "not at all" is 1, "very much" is 5). I think it matches the perceived state quite well - except for neuroticism. I wonder why that is? Does it result from posting such a self-centered question? Superiority bias at work? Probably I should consider in which area(s) of neuroticism I should have to watch out for myself.
