Gamer Age - What year were you born?

[crazy_cat]

1385 DR - The Year of Blue Fire

1971 AD - The Year of the coming of the Whining Grognard Naysayers (Which is marked by some as the first beginning of the Greatest and most bitterly contested (to date) of the Edition Wars)

The other poll was skewed (e.g. 10 years for some answers, 5 for others, 4 for others, 3 for others), so I decided to put up a poll similar to the one that Umbram linked to.


Basically, this poll asks the question: Out of people interested to some degree in 4E, what year were you born?

Actually, it just asks "how old are you." I'd be better if you had much fewer options, divided into chunks, and tried to make some kind of correlation between age and 4e excitement.

For some reason, I voted for the year I started playing D&D, not the year I was born. Whoops.

Great. You just ruined science. Way to go.

Actually, it just asks "how old are you."

Yes. With the "you" being a group of people with some interest in 4E.

Not a group of people with some interest in basket weaving.

By definition, if a person comes to this web site and checks it out, they have some interest. They may not buy the product, or the interest may only be fleeting for a few seconds, but they have enough interest to come here in the first place.

I'd be better if you had much fewer options, divided into chunks, and tried to make some kind of correlation between age and 4e excitement.

No. You can combine the chunks however you want by yourself. You should wait a few days until a lot of people have gotten the chance to vote though.

But, having more options of specific data is better than fewer options of "chunked" general data because it shows the details. You can always combine the data into groups later on.

And then, you can make your own correlations.

What did you vote, and what should you have voted?

What did you vote, and what should you have voted?

I voted 1982 but I was born in 1971.

1974. Which, if I recall correctly, was the most common answer for a similar poll done on the General RPG Discussion board some time earlier.

Go 74ers!
