[QUOTE="Korgoth, post: 4608029, member: 49613"] I'm not defending it vigorously. I'm just pointing out that you find the results of the poll upsetting and I think that is why you're saying it's invalid. It's a poll that suggests (not proves) that 4E is something less than the all-conquering god-king of gaming, and so the "4E Avengers" are here to beat up on it and start slapfights. And if anything, "grognards" are very under-represented at EN World. So the cross-section of D&D players it represents should, if anything, skew toward more recent designs. There have been a number of polls here that show that OD&D (my favorite system) is not anywhere near as popular as other versions of D&D. But you don't see me throwing a fit and claiming that polls are bunk. If you're enjoying 4E, by all means continue to play and enjoy it. A poll isn't going to take that away from you. *shrug* Maybe I just got used to not being with the majority (in any number of things) a long time ago. Once you get used to it it's not that big of a deal. Even if WOTC decided to scrap 4E tomorrow (not likely) you could still play it for the rest of your life and if you feel there are any gaps in the crunch you could just fill them in yourself. So it's really nothing to get worked up about. [/QUOTE]
