Sorry for stepping on Oneiromancer's toes, but I was curious to see the "How old are you?" poll at a finer granularity. Also, I've never done a poll before and wanted to see what it was like.

So, let's see that bell curve on the "How old are you?" question.

I think you just obsoleted this poll as well.

No, we'll have none of that wishy-washy, new-age non-commital "I change my age every year" nonesense here. Just suck it in and make a commitment - choose an age, and stick with it.

"London society is full of women of the very highest birth who have, of their own free choice, remained thirty-five for years. Lady Dumbleton is an instance in point. To my own knowledge she has been thirty-five ever since she arrived at the age of forty, which was many years ago."

Twelve, but soon to be thirteen.

The above statement was made on Tuesday, March 14th, 2006, so it is subject to change in a few years or so. Now finish your pie.

EDIT: Meant to say 18, of course

You know, this has come up often enough that I think Schik should just make a page that charts out a graph of the distributions of ages for everybody that has entered their birthday into their profile information... That'd stay current as people aged, also... Optionally, it could also only graph data for people who had been active on the forum in the last X number of days or something...

That's the worst bell curve ever.

...Actually, it's pretty decent. It's just fun to say that things are the worst ever.

(I'm 17.)

Hey, it was 3 years old and there are a lot more people now. And back then you couldn't have that many options, so this is actually pretty cool. My toes are safe!

Game on,
