Most Played FRPG of 2010

[engrishonly]

I'm especially interested in the bottom half of this list. With the exception of Mouseguard (which I love,) I haven't played any of these games.

I'm getting a bit bored with Castles & Crusades, and it's hard to get a group excited about roleplaying a mouse (even a heroic mouse.)

You could run the Realm Guard hack for Mouse Guard. Instead of heroic mice, play Dunedain Rangers in the Fourth Age of Middle Earth.

Realm Guard: Rangers of the North (v1.6)

Alright. Looks like the soup has been spoiled by too many chefs, or something. Apparently, one cannot mention 4th Edition and Pathfinder in the same sentence on the Internet, without kicking off a popularity contest.

EDIT: You know what, never mind what would be the point in even questioning this...

Holy anonymous votes, Batman! The number of voters has more than doubled since this time yesterday, and at least two-thirds of them are all from anonymous voters. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, Over? Where are all of these guests coming from?


GLOSSARY
----------------------------
Quality: Since anonymous votes are unreliable (some users like to skew poll results by voting more than once), all anonymous votes are thrown out. The "quality" score is the percentage of votes that could be counted.

Adjusted Rank: The percentage of votes that the game received after all anonymous votes have been discarded.

Paizo posted this poll over at their Facebook page. Even if you are registered, coming over from there, it looked like it posted as anonymous. I didn't realize that until after I posted on the poll. When I logged in, the poll software seemed to be smart enough to know that a vote came from my IP and showed that I'd already voted.

That's because your browser saved your vote in a cookie. If you delete the cookie you can refresh the page over and over again and get a new vote every time.

Paizo linking the poll from Facebook is an equally plausible explanation for the skewed results though. The D&D page has just under 50x as many fans as Paizo's, so imagine if it were posted there.

Exactly. That's why polls set as anonymous are worthless, and polls set open need to discard the anonymous to get any useful information out of them.

Not that I'm saying that polls on the Internet ever mean anything.

4e mostly, pathfinder once or twice, and ars magica too briefly. And i forgot to check "other" for gamma world.

I thought I was logged in when I voted, but apparantly not. It still stated I voted on the poll after logging in, but when I double checked it didn't show that I had...any way to change that up?

I put one under C&C, 3.5, 4e, Dragon Age, 1e and other, WFRP, and I'm not certain but I think I also put a vote under PF though that wasn't in a full blown campaign.

If there's any one thing I learn from threads with polls, it's that a lot of people have a lot of opinion about types of polls. ;p
