Hello everybody!

I was struck with curiosity the other day about what kind of people this little fandom entails, particularly how old people are on average. So I thought that I'll make a little poll here.

Here's how it works: I'll make comments to this discussion with age brackets. Upvote the comment your age corresponds to, if you'd indulge my curiosity, that is :)

If lots of people wish to partake in the poll but not reveal any personal data that can be traced to them, I can see if I can mange to make an completely anonymous poll. But for now an up vote-based system seems easiest.

Thanks! :)

EDIT: I forgot to mention, but PLEASE NOTE: this is a poll about your ages as real life persons, not the ages of your role playing personas. If revealing your rough actual age online makes you uncomfortable, please do not partake in the poll. And please don't vote several options or the ages of your RP personas, as it makes the data messy. Thanks :)

8,750, to be exact. Thought I'd clear some things up.

Oh, I meant you as a person, not as a roleplaying character. I'm mostly curious about what kind of people find and are drawn into TGS.

Huh, that's a cool idea, so nobody has to tell their age directly.

Hmm, I'm not sure if you're aware of this Anchestor, but on the computer you can check to see all of the people who upvoted a comment.

I am aware. That's why the ages are in braces and I asked if a completely anonymous poll via some online would be desired. I didn't just do an anonymous poll to begin with is because I don't know how to do such a poll, but if several people want one I guess I can figure it out. And of course nobody has to partake in any poll just because some random person on the internet is curious.

(Maybe you should do a pole for character ages too? That might help.)

Hey Vintages here!

I was just thinking- with these polls, you might get a more accurate reading on the comic itself. That way, you won't have the Lodgers messing up your data!

Hi Vintages,

There are several reasons why I have put these here. First of all, they don't have to do with any specific pages of the comic. It would feel inappropriate in a way to put these directly under certain storypoints. To me it would be more like clutter if these were directly linked to the comic, it would clog up the comment section.

I've been doing polls because I'm curious about the fellow people of the fandom, and I have come to view this channel as sort of a space for the more invested fans to rave and hang out. And as this is analysis of the fandom it makes sense to me to put these in the fandomspace.

The channel also feels more secluded. Like someone who reads the comic on occasion but doesn't care about the community wouldn't come here. To me, this channel feels like the space for "hard-core" fans, not just passers by. And as I'm asking about personal information, even if it's vague, I'd think that seclusion would be appropriate. Even it it's actually a fairly thin veil.

And about messy data? On this poll, for example, there have been two points out of 19 that don't align nicely. So I'm not too concerned. It's not like this is scientific study for a paper or anything anyway. Just someone behind a screen who likes a webcomic and would like to get a sense of others who like the webcomic on a vague, personal level :)
