[QUOTE="Jack99, post: 4607557, member: 53135"] Yeah, that's gonna keep the E-wars out of this thread. Which one, out of curiosity? And you are surprised by this? Where did you get those numbers? Especially on what WotC thinks and expects. Could you link the article in question? Or a thousand other things... What is interesting is despite the fact that 26% say they never tried it, 4e still outsells the previous edition(s) if we go by any of the indicators we have available, instead of relying on random polls. So either polls like this one are not representative, or there is something else happening. Maybe it's the new blood or something. ---------- Anyway, just to finish off this whole poll debate. Back when I played WoW, some guys weren't happy about the boards provided by Blizzard, so they made their own board, for the server. It quickly became popular amongst the raidguilds and those who wanted to be in the raidguilds. Had Blizzard come to our boards and conducted any polls, they would have found out some interesting things about our server. People play on average 35+ hours per week. They raid 3+ days a week, and pvp around 10 hours a week. The average number of level 60 characters (back in the day) was 2.1. Now, do you really think we were a good representation of people who play WoW? Or even of our server? In case some of you know nothing of WoW, let me give you a hint. Those numbers are nowhere near average nor normal for the average WoW'er, as raiders and hardcore pvp'er represent less than 2-3% of the general WoW population. It's precisely the same with ENworld.
