It would be nice also if the newcomers voted for either/or both of the series that they read.


Every time I bring this thread forward, a couple of middies add their location and vote in the poll. Then a couple of the old salts actually admit that they aren't homeless and put down their home location. So far, about 6% of the total number of registered users have voted, but it is a very high percentage of the regular posters.

For those who are interested in where they are in the ranks:

User Control Panel > Usergroups (in the right-hand menu choices) > Registered Users > Rank

It is possible to rearrange the information on the page in several ways.

Ah ha! I have lowered the average age!

Also, not very many teenagers. I figure that this is a sign that all you adults are hogging all the good books. It's a conspiracy!

What Average? Without data on actual ages but just age ranges we have Median, the age range of the person in the middle of the responders, and Mode, the age range with the most responders. No worries, mate, Admiral Honor Harrington is not a math genius either. ;)

Hey, we may not actually know what the Mean age of poll responders was, but from the data on hand we can be sure it was high enough that any teenage vote would lower it. (Wouldn't likely lower it a whole age bracket, but would inevitably lower it)

Just because we don't know what the number was before, or after, doesn't mean we can't apply logic to it. ;)

Drats!!! You found us out. Actually, the conspiracy is to get more young ladies to read RFC's books. If more young ladies read them and talk about them, then more young men will read them too.

RFC said "refitting a Beowulfan SD to Manticoran standards would be just as difficult as refitting a standard SLN SD to those standards. In other words, it would be cheaper and faster to build new ships."

Are you trying to tell me women don't have that much influence over men? Especially young, single men? :lol: :lol:

Even I remember that much from high school.
