Well eight out of ten at least.
I don't think to much before I speak, and I don't succeed on stage because I avoid it at any cost.

10 out of 10 for me I think.
I love showing off, giving a performance as long as I know what I am doing, everything carefully rehearsed though, I'd hate to just go and wing it.
I rehearse most things that I say out loud, which means I struggle in groups because I'm always waiting for my turn to speak or still thinking about something that has gone.
I cannot cope with small talk, can't see the point, I'd rather sit in silence, I'm comfortable with silence.
The thought of having to make a phone call makes me feel sick, and I have to build myself up to making one each time. The only exceptions to that are calling my wife, or my parents.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

But you can't be rehearsed enough can you?

And meanwhile I'm missing out on what's being said at the moment.

When I was 19 I had a job doing direct sales in people's houses. I think that has helped me a lot, it was helish at first but I got over it, and used to get an incredible buzz doing it, it was the performance that got me and I didn't really care if I sold or not. Afterwards though I was glad to be out and on my own. That is why I didn't sell anything, finish the performance and get out before the unpleasantness of trying to trick someone into buying.

Since when is it linked to focus?
Doesn't read like a list of symptoms, but guesses.

Test yourself whether you're passive aggressive. Then try it out in an email to the website.

Elephant the 'passive' bit - I'll settle for outright aggressive  (just kidding, that's the 'inner me' that wants to get out speaking)

10 out of 10, sort of...
There are a couple that don't apply in practice, but only because I make a conscious effort to counteract them...
Like you, I avoid the literal stage (Well, I was a band geek when I was young), but I think that one is more trying to make the point that introverts find it easy to "perform" when there's a specific topic that they can prepare for ahead of time, or are already very familiar with...
Like if I'm trying to teach some colleagues about an algorithm or framework that I know well, I find that easy... If the questions go too far afield, though, it gets more difficult and stressful.
As for thinking before speaking... I would, but as people expect quick responses, I've had to train myself to do so... The downside is that sometimes I'm saying something quickly while my brain is still working out the perfect way to word it... Thoughts collide, and I might end up jumping from one to the other mid-sentence, confusing everyone.
Blah, what a depressing subject...

I'm way to familiar with that one. I'm even doing it when I'm writing.

I thought that was Myer-Briggs. 
Anyway, I'm definitely an INT but possibly more P than J

's funny, I used to be INTJ, but now I'm ISTP. But it's only the I and T that's strong.

This is just cold reading. Everything on that list applies to everyone to some degree, clickbait sh*t!

I like more the explanations linked from:

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Me too! We should all get together and do something. Like a flash mob maybe.

This is a product that does not exists...
If I have to report all the bugs and errors to Microsoft I got while trying to run a test I would spend the rest of the day - over 8 hours - with it!
Anybody had a better experience with it?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

You mean Apache Cordova ?
I don't have any experiences with it, but others seem to experience something similar. Seems to still have some edges.
With Xamarin everything seems to be going in the right direction as far as I can tell.

The product I mentioned (and not found) is a merge between Visual Studio and Xamarin, and Microsoft advertised it as the tool will let you threw Eclipse away.
So I went to test it...Installed VS 2015, installed Xamarin, created a simple (from template) project, run it...
From the beginning to the very end it is not full of bugs (that you should expect from a beta tool) it DOES NOT EXISTS...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Oh come on! It's a Microsoft Beta.
That's the "back of a fag packet" for a normal company! 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
|
|
|
|

It's a low level even for Microsoft - I can't remember any beta from Microsoft where one of the hottest features fails with such a disgrace...

I'm a VERY happy Xamarin developer - and thinking hard about updating it to be able to use it with Visual Studio. Anyone have any experience with it and is willing to share it?
