Those are some fairly interesting results you have there.
One thing that made me curious was the 'preferred game' pie graph, how do you have a pie graph with results that add up to 230 odd percent?

According to your pie chart, pc fan-ism is slightly larger than console fan-ism, if you observe the middle of the line you will see a slight bend in Pc's favor. In a bloody war, they would win with enough remains to start a small settlement.
And then argue about which OS to use. ;)

Thank you for that, I was wondering when the results would be posted, though I did kind of expect the 'frequency of visits' thing. I hope your real one goes well (unless I remembered incorrectly)

Huh.
So the majority of the Escapists are middle aged British people?
Interesting.
Actually their 17-21's and UK XD

I do find it exceptionally interesting that as many people own a SNES as do an original XBOX, and that Playstation has the highest tend for people to still own their prior systems when the new one comes out.
Thats to do with a cock up on my part, i didn't enter those choices originally on my results so it not really reliable.

Really interesting post, it must have taken you ages.
I'm surprised there's more of us brits than americans to be honest.
Not surprised that most people came here because of Yahtzee.
It did take me quite a while yeah, the high Brit count is probably due to the fact that i posted up the survey early morning England time so...

You know I didn't even realise that, thanks for pointing it out. I have absolutely NO IDEA. I'll have to watch for that when I do this for real!

Oh right that'd have made sense, I wish I'd have seen the original thread so I could have taken part cause I'm a little weird like that.

You would of hated my survey masses of spelling and grammar mistakes. Missing out obvious countries and consoles ETC! It was a real fiasco! *Shamefaced*

You know, it's exactly what I expected.
Actually, wait a minute.
More PC gamers than console gamers
What you never noticed? PC gamers rised up. Then again, 2008 had more console wars. Today, it's consoles vs PC wars.

Nicely done and good luck with your other survey (if I remember correctly, you're doing another).

I had no clue that there were more English people than American. I always figured that they were almost he same amount of people.

I think the reason that you have more British than American's is due to the fact that you probably made the initial thread at a time at such there were alot more British users online (time zones). It's a good chart, but it could've been better if it had been at the top of the 'hot threads' for a number of days so you could have gathered more unbiased data. I realise this is hard, and by no means are you're efforts lost. It's good to see New Zealand is represented here!

Good luck

But I'm pretty sure the majority of the users are American.
You have to keep in mind that I am British myself so the time zone in which I posted up the survey would be easier for Brits to reply to.
Plus it's only 99 users of all the Escapist.

Also At the time I could only have a maximum of 100 participants and I had 99 so....
But you are right it would be interesting to do this survey properly

Yeah *Shrugs* ah well if I do this properly some time in the future I'll put decent effort into the survey building itself XD
