I am A, but I don't know if I'm A+ or A-.

EDIT: My Captcha phraze was "onamu Caröe:". Seems kind of unfair to those who don't have the letter ö on their keyboards...

Sadly, i would not be a good donor unless the person i'm donating to is also a gamer. Because my blood is liquid caffeine. Mainly comprised of mountain dew, Bawls and coffee...

Hello Escapers, I was mostly curious what everyone's blood-type is.

A
Why do you want to know? It's my blood not yours. You can't have any of it. Cause it's mine. My blood! Keep your needles and transfusions and blood vans away from me! MY blood! MINE MINE MINE!!!!!!!

And now that I've calmed down...I think I'm AB something or rather. Not sure to be honest and I'm not caring...CAUSE IT'S MY BLOOD AND IT'S STAYING IN MY BODY!!!!!!

Not a clue and...

"Also, I'm really curious about whatever system is used to determine personality based around blood type."

What the fuck? Mind you, I suppose that really isn't anymore stupid than astrology, like you said.

Also: Isn't O the rarest type? And yet there seems to be an awful lot of you already.

Nope I believe you are thinking of AB.

Which I am. I would think A and B are the most common (too lazy to research) since they have 2 possible genotypes, and i believe the negatives are more rare than the positives.

Ya know what awesome? My mum's a B, my dad's an A, my bro's an O, and I'm an AB.

I feel like there should be an option for those that don't know, like myself. Cause I really don't know.

I'm not sure. I think both my parents are O, meaning I certainly am, too, but I don't know positive or negative.

I'm O Negative. Makes me a universal donor, but it's a pain in the ass if I ever need blood myself.

I'm AB- as far as I can remember... I'm not supposed to donate so I'm not hugely certain, but I think that's what my mum told me. Could be AB+ too.

I expected far fewer AB's. But hey, whatever.

Also, that's seems like a pretty good number of O+'s. And A+'s.

OT: Yeah, that seems like a bit of a superstitious reason to hire somebody. Blood type does not determine your personality. It determines what antigens and antibodies you produce, as well as your Rh factor.

B- here. I can give blood to every other B type, but can only recieve B- in return, which is probably why I make it a point to donate blood.

Not really surprissed by how the poll is shaping up, it seems to follow to pattern of blood types by how common they are. But its good to see the diversity here in Escapist.

Just gotta say, your family covers the entire spectrum, which is awesome.

Also yeah, you would think that AB would be more likely, but because of the huge number of people with O in the first place, most people are going to either be homozygous recessive or heterozygous with O.

O+ if I remember correctly.
Noone in the West cares about blood type except for a few esoteric idiots, but it's pretty big in Asia,
where it's seen as an indicator for personality, how well a couple matches, how well someone is suited for a specific job and so on.

By the way, be careful around type As, Hitler was A so you can never know what they're up to.
