Just stopping by really late in the game. I see you as a gamma I feel like you are tricky because you have deep set eyes with a strong brow, so I think that scowling picture you posted which showed what looks like an Si-scowl, might not be Si after all. You could be an Se/Ni user with a Si looking scowl.
I think I see lots of drifts/zone-outs. It's possible they are Si, though I am entertaining the thought that they look more Ni because of the lack of scowling...(well, I am still new and need more experience to see how common it is to see if Si drifts can be without scowls, too). Also, your eyes look really steady for the most part to me...so I am having trouble with seeing you as NeFi (though, I have never typed an NeFi before personally...I just have trouble seeing you as the first NeFi I would ever personally type). I think you have the steadier gaze of Se/Ni with perhaps Ni>Se.
I also see Fi/Te...but I don't really say this because of your smile (though I think your smile does clash with your cheeks despite being wide), but your blunt "eye-brow raises". These look very Te. You do them quite a lot, too. If I don't get your P functions, all I can say is that your eye-brow raises seem so Te and that is why I say Fi/Te. I think I see that Fi tension lingering after some big smiles, too. But I'm really relying on your brow raises, so I apologize if that seems careless to base your J-functions largely on that.
So my vote is for gamma. My gut is saying you could be TeNi or NiTe based on how much I saw you zone out and all the Te eye-brow raises you did (but I'm not sure...it's just a gut feeling...I will need to look at more vids). Also, I think your smile really went into your eyes during your talk with jason13 (though I am still trying to figure out if this is a reliable J-lead signal...) But what I think I see as "Ni" in you (all the side drifts and zoning out) seems like a big part of your psyche by how often I saw it. That might even explain why you like "conceptual" things. But if not TeNi or NiTe...I think any other spot in gamma makes sense to me, the way I interpret your signals.
Your voice is softer than what is expected for Te-leads, but it could just be that you have developed Fi more over the years... or you are not Te-lead. haha. Anyways, I will get back to you once I get more experience and watch more vids. I didn't watch your first 2 vids all the way through yet, so there could be a lot of signals I am missing. I actually really want to know now if you are eye-centric or face-centric to help decide if you are P vs J-lead, but I will need more practice and time with that. You tend to rock back and forth as you speak which makes me wanna say P-lead, but I also find times where you do seem rigid...so it is really hard to say.
Anyways, I am planning to watch the entire interaction video, though! It's very cool to watch as you guys are discussing the theory and your experiences. I don't get to talk about CT with anyone face to face, so this is interesting for me to see others discuss it face-to-face. I like the points you both bring up.
Edit: I just heard you talk about wanting a "concise" summary of what you read in your philosophy class or else you get frustrated. You want to get to the point, to not get lost in all the words, but to really understand what the paper is trying to tell you, right? I might be totally wrong, don't quote me on this, but this could be explained by having Te...well, from my limited understanding of Te.
Also, I just read through your forum posts about wanting to understand why you don't Te avalanche talk or why you halt sometimes when you speak, like a Ti user. When joining this forum, I realized that the Ti halting signal is more confusing than I thought as I saw many Fi/Te users halt in speech. My theory is that you and others can tend to halt in order to gaze into your worldview (which at the moment, I think it is Ni) then when you find what you want to say, you start talking again. And the way you talk is very direct and flows continuously until you need to look into your worldview again. So that could be just one reason. I have also noticed other TeNi users who don't talk so rapidly. I think my father is a TeNi and he pauses all the time...but of course, since I am not posting a video of my dad on here, you can take that bit of personal info with a grain of salt.
I also am trying to hypothesize why you might believe you were a Ti lead...it could be that you are a Te-lead and you are running on your primary oscillation wheel, so then you would really feel the perfectionism of Fi and mistake it for Ti? That's just a theory. Or for that matter, if you have Fi anywhere in your function order you might feel its perfectionistic tendencies? I am thinking jason13 could be right about saying how Ti and Fi are very similar to each other (in ways that we still don't understand yet)...I still need time to figure that out. Or maybe the combination of Te and Ni somehow brings about perfectionistic tendencies...well, I dunno how, I'm just babbling now.
Sorry, for writing so much. Anyways, be sure to read my signature/disclaimer.
