COME ON. THAT MANY??

Actually, you contradict your own theory. The ratio of females should be higher - it's just that the hardcore male fans tend to be the ones that fill out these surveys.

I don't get it. You have it set as though everyone who filled out the survey only has one of those consoles. What if I had a Wii, DS, and an Xbox?

I wonder what the conclusions are according to this poll.

That's why it doesn't add up to 100%, because you can check off more than one.

Wow, if my virginity depends on ng, i'd be better off as priest. From the 8500 who took the survey, like almost 400 said to be WOMEN. We mus consider some pervs must have chosen "female" just for the kicks.

Oh, forgot to add, is this kind of pencil drawing OK for submission?

http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/kan zer/spanish-fire

Because most of the art I'm gonna submit are drawings of the kind... just want to know if I should keep them to my userpage.

Wait a minute, I can answer the question using my knowledge of statistics. Jim, you're right, only HARDCORE NG'ers so to speak would be interested in doing a survey. Because of this, you get skewed results due what statisticians call a "Voluntary Response Sample". So the results, of course, can't be believed completely.

Ok, mumbo jumbo.

But a lot of the pencil art we've seen, even some decent stuff, still feels more suitable for the user pages and not the main listing.

Damn!
Looks like I gotta buckle the fuck down and make some masterpieces.


what happened to this place?

24 males to every female? wow, that's a bit of a sausage-fest, no wonder NG society is so immature ^^;

now, 50% of us have wiis, even more than own 360s, so that tells me you should release your next game for wiiware, I'd buy it!

Boston meetup eh? sounds intriguing, I live only a few dozen miles north of there!

I am shocked that there are so many in the 18+ category. I don't feel so lonely in this age bracket anymore.

I've noticed many artists whom have less than 4 submissions. I've also seen pencil sketches. What up with that? Are they prematurely scouted and soon to be unscouted? Or is an exceptional artist allowed to slide past these portal qualifications? All questions no one will answer, so why am I asking? Oops.. another question...


I voice act, therefore.....

Yeah, with Project Natal coming soon, I'd think that the 360 would be higher then the Wii.

I think this destroyed any hope I have of that being any good.

That is just so damn funny. I guess Newgrounds just isn't a girls thing. Although there are quite a few lesbians.....

Age

Under 16: 28.8%
16-17: 26.8%
18-24: 38.7%

:Pretty balanced if you ask me.

Game Consoles

Xbox 360: 45.6%
PS3: 21.1%
Wii: 50.5%
DS: 60.5%
PSP: 32.2%

PS3 doesn't seem to be very popular here I see.

In other news, ThoseSneakyFrench has been putting together quite the NG computer case!

Same here. Though I don't watch as many Flashes as I once used to; Youtube and other sites have been eating into my time. Though there's the art portal now... which is very addictive...

I do find the overall immature level here annoying, but there are pluses too: a huge audience for animation that is much bigger than on ANY other website, the occasional mature film, the convenience of being able to showcase my animation, music AND art under one roof...

Also

Tom

Whenever you, bob, psychogoldfish, jeff, plato, max, dennis or any of the other admin people i've forgotten have the chance

you guys could make an option to display art thumbnails on ones userpage that link to the particular piece in the art portal.

i'd rather have those under my journal entries than "favorite audio submissions" and "trophies"

just an idea
