A very simple question, but I just wanted to get an idea of how many people have payed for a Gold subscription, and who has rejected Microsoft's attempts to make you play Halo. No, Bill, I don't want to.
I am silver, but am hoping to change within the next month since a whole load of people I know have gotten an Xbox recently.

Why bring Halo into this? There are plenty of great games, better than Halo, that are played on XBL, such as PGR4, COD, and L4D. Yes, I am overusing acronyms there, and yes I am a huge Halo fan. But still, Halo isn't the only XBL game out there thats any good.
Anyway, back on topic. I want to get XBL Gold, but to do that I need to be connected, and to do that I need to buy the wireless adapter since I can't otherwise connect it to my wireless router. Hence I'm stuck on Silver by default, but will get Gold as soon as I can. Therefore I voted Silver in the poll. Anyway, Microsoft gave me three months free Gold subscription anyway when I had the RRoD, plus I've still got loads of free vouchers and cards saved from purchased games, so I'll have almost a year free anyway when I do finally get the adapter...
EDIT: I notice a fair few people have posted about Pokemon Gold and Silver. Unless they're being sarcastic, which I doubt, then they obviously didn't read the OP. People, read the OP before you post. That's good forum etiquette. Don't be the fool who has to edit because he got the wrong topic.
