So I had a tie between Metal and Earth when I was aiming for straight metal and I'm not sure what to think of these results. Obviously there is more here than I know about. My calculations indicate it should have given me five points for metal, maybe even six, and two with a max of four points with earth.
 * Group - Lead. 100% sure this is Metal. Not sure what earth is in this question, but it doesn't seem like an earth thing. RESULT: Metal +1
 * Value Most - Knowledge. 90% sure this is Metal and Air. (100% on the Air). It doesn't seem like Earth which is most likely either Balance or Loyalty, but as it might not be Metal . . . RESULT: O
 * Potion - Mercurial. Sounds like Metal, but that's really the only thing that I have to go on. Earth could be anywhere in here, but it's currently not predicted for this. RESULT: Metal +1
 * Scares - Failure. 100% sure this is metal and 100% sure that it isn't earth, because Earth has to be Change. RESULT: Metal +1
 * Season - Autumn. Based off various things that connect the seasons to elements this should be Metal and Earth, with Earth maybe being in Summer instead. If it's not Metal, I'm not sure what metal would be, because no one seems to put Metal anywhere else. A theory that was proposed was that maybe Metal is winter because Metal and Water (which most likely is Winter) are both representative of coolness. If we moved that there . . . RESULT: Earth +1
 * Creature - Dragon. It seems accurate that Dragon is Metal and Earth, but not clear enough to say with 100% certainty, so for now let's say it's not metal and move that to Gryphon. RESULT: Earth +1

Even manipulating things a little it still only gives me 2 earth to 3 metal. There is one that definitely isn't earth and two that probably aren't earth, leaving the potion as maybe being earth.

I'll compare to some other results at another time, but I think this tells us a couple of definite things, especially since I was aiming for straight metal and got this.
