OKCupid.com - WTF - Find Your Ideal Match, With A Twist

The witty online dating website OKCupid.com has launched a new feature called, WTF, that lets you see how incompatible you are with another user.

Sound weird? Here's how it works. First, you'll need to create a personal profile on OKCupid in order to use WTF. As OKCupid is a matchmaking service, you'll want to fill out your profile in a way that expresses who you really are. Here's where WTF comes in: Once you've finished you're personal profile, you can begin answering a literally endless series of questions (both user-submitted and site-generated) that allow you to express a strong opinion about something. After you respond, you also indicated the response that you would like for your potential match to have answered. Last, indicate how important their response is to you. A sample question is, "Would you date an atheist?" So, for example, you could put "Yes", indicated that you want your match to put "Probably", and say that the answer to this question is "Somewhat important". When you tire of answering questions, you can see how well you and another user matched up on questions to which both of you have submitted responses by requesting a WTF report. Essentially, a WTF report tells you "how well (or poorly) [you] matched, and a damage score that tells you mathematically just how much messing up that question hurt the match between you two". WTF will display the user's answers to each question and contrast them with yours so you can see where specific discrepancies lie. In order to do this, however, you'll need to submit a request that needs to be approved by the person whose WTF report you want to see. This process continues until ideally, you hunt down that elusive ideal match.
