D&D 5E Buying Adventures

[DM Howard]

Is a multichoice pole interesting where all the answers bunch up at one spot?

I guess I, and several other posters, are too mentally blocked to realize your very subtle and nuanced point.

What are you talking about? You answer the poll with the choice that best suits you. If you have bought 11+ adventures, you choose that option. The poll is going to be skewed towards that option because I had to cut it off at some point and the purpose of the poll is to see numbers for people that buy a small amount of adventures.

Nice. Do some more.

mental block - an inability to remember or think of something you normally can do; often caused by emotional tension.

I was in no way insulting anyone in this thread. Since we can't have a reasonable conversation, I'm done with you.

11+ definitely.

I rarely keep them though. I buy them, read them for inspiration and then resell them. But between PDF and hardcopies, I would guess the actual number is in the hundreds.

Voted 11+: I have @66 different RPG systems in my collection, and I have adventures for most of them. D&D leads the pack in sheer number, but some of my other systems are more complete overall. So while I may own @70% of the D&D modules, I have between 90-100% of those published for Champions/HERO, or the original Space:1889.

I think the point of questioning/criticizing the poll is that a spread of answers something like...

1-5
6-10
11-15
16-20
21+

...may have given you a more interesting and informative series of answers.

Not that I'm taking sides or anything, but I see [MENTION=22260]TerraDave[/MENTION] 's point; there is a lot of bunching around 11+.

Depends what you call "interesting" I suppose. But, since you cannot know the data before you actually take the poll, you shouldn't hold that against the poll. It *does* show that, of folks who buy adventures and chose to reply, they generally don't go for just one or two. That is interesting, I think.

Intended or not, this is coming across as extremely snarky.

I have done a very quick, and probably quite rough, count - and can confirm that across various RPG systems including D&D (several versions) and Pathfinder I own 11+ adventures.

I think the criticism of where you cut off the poll choices is fair. Given the sheer quantity of adventures, indeed just the sheer quantity of official TSR AD&D 1e adventures, cutting it off at 11+ seems short sighted. I think the range needed to go MUCH MUCH higher to get any real useful data from your poll.

To me, this looks like a poll asking "how many movies have you see in your life" with "11+" being the highest number.

I'd suggest a poll that focuses on adventure-buying preferences. Have options ranging from homebrewer only through to running nothing but published adventures.
