Magnificent Bastard Scale

  • -3: I shot at a few cops.
  • -2: You'll never find the TV remote.note 
  • -1: This one time, I tricked someone into giving me their wallet. Their wallet. With their credit card inside.
  • 0: I framed someone for fraud and identity theft.
  • 1: Yeah, I'm pretty clever. Try me.
  • 2: (I hid the TV remote so that we wouldn't have to watch your show.)
  • 3: (I hid the TV remote so that we would go to buy a new one at the electronics store. At the store, I'll memorize your credit card number when I see it.)
  • 4: (I hid the TV remote so that we would go to buy a new one at the electronics store. At the store, I've bribed a cashier to set up a card reader which will send the information to my cell phone in the car. I'll plant the cellphone on them and frame them for identity theft. Then I'll change my name to get away with it.)
  • X: (I hid the TV remote so that we would go to buy a new one at the electronics store. At the store, I've bribed a cashier to set up a card reader which will send the information to my cell phone in the car. I'll plant the cellphone on them and frame them for identity theft. Then I'll change my name to get away with it, and when the cops are in the store to arrest the cashier for theft and fraud, I'll take them all out from behind. Having gained the cashier's trust and severely weakened the city's defense force, I can take over Troperia, arrange an army of my own, and start my quest for world conquest.) AAAHAHAHAHAHAHA- OW! My sides. (Never mind that, though. My plan is now ready to go. But what kinds of people will I hire? Hmm... Oh, yeah, I'm practically Erwin Rommel.)
