Well, i signed up to take the ACT (standardized test for university entrances) and had to fill out a bunch of junk about who i am. Which got me to thinking, who all is playing spring? I dont think anyone at my school filled out the "Pacific Islander" bubble.....

Anyway, im pretty sure we are all guys here, except for Rayden. Though perhaps Rayden just has a misleading avatar.

Vote!

And i didnt include a "Yes Please" option for a reason

:lol:

There is one known female to my knowledge and she doesn't frequent the Off Topic forums so I think unless we get people lieying this pole will just server to prove how lame we are...

I'm married, so I go out with a girl on a regular basis... the point is that we are lame because we are frightening to any females on the internet who happen to play RTSs (my sister played StarCraft for a while but she ended up giving up on it)...

More specifically there is a problem in the female phyche when comfronted with a game that is designed to define the winner as the one who loses less... FPS and RTS both involve dieing/losing hundreds of lives/men and basically not careing, as long as you kill the other guy's last guy or getting the most kills or whatever... I think that's why there are fewer females who play games like this... added to that that especially with internet RTS and FPS you end up loseing completely a hundred times before you start winning even the occational map... most female don't want a game to be "work"... this is a generalization that can probably be made about a lot of the non-gaming population but seems more common in women...

I think it means the closest you get, so when you were alive you were male (I assume)

Male count is up to 42, I'm laughing, now pausing, now I'm sad.

Well actualy 43 percent of the gameing community are girls. But they are most casual gamers, and not hardcore TA fans, like us nerds.

Yay for the Sims!

What Zoombie said is probably true. Most young people play games, atleast internet games. Even my Mum playes games! (scary though, I know) Ah well, all is good as long as you actually get out of the house once and a while. Meeting people isnt as scary as you think.
