I specifically decided to collect information on what people were actually *using*, rather than on opinions, in order to reduce the subjectivity slightly.I was very pleased to have had so many respondants (about 100 board members provided information about the parties that the ran/played in).I ought to clarify that the popularity isn't "number of characters with this class", it is "number of class levels taken". This was done to simplify my gathering of information.I did consider doing another survey (perhaps I should?) which showed a grid of how many characters of each level there are. I did collect some information that way, and I can tell you that looking at Rangers there was 8x1st, 4x2nd, 2x3rd, 3x4th, 1x5th, 4x6th, 2x7th, 1x9th. On the other hand, Barbarians had 7x1st, 2x2nd, 2x3rd, 1x4th, 1x5th, 2x6th and 1x11th. It seems like there were not too many people who were taking 1 level of Ranger for the TWF amongst those who responded!In the original survey I collected information about prestige classes too. Most popular was Shadowdancer (with 23 levels reported), then homebrews with 16, Arcane Archer with 15, Order of the Bow with 13, Templar with 11 and so forth.Do you think it would be interesting to run this survey again, and create a class/level grid?Cheers</blockquote>
