Wondering how many Linux users are on here

[Cheshire_Theyain]

This seems like a good idea to start

[akazi]

hey good idea man.

[Rhaedas]

In retrospect, a three vote OS choice would have been better. Non-Linux users might not even care to read the topic, so the results might be a bit skewed.

Dam "must have two options". A "+1" would have been a better option.

This. According to the poll's results so far, there are 47% of Linux users, and we all know that this is actually completely false.

[Cheshire_Theyain]

You're statement isn't 100% accurate Karel. You are comparing the percentages against all the people who own/download OG. That's not what that number means. It's showing that 47% of the people who voted are linux users, not 47% of the user base. And there is no point in having Win and Mac options as that is not the idea behind this poll. The idea was to just see how many people on here are linux users. That's it.

[Zelron]

That was exactly my point in saying the poll would be better if it allowed a single option. As most non-Linux users will never even bother opening the thread the percentage is meaningless. What is important is the numerical value of "yes" votes.
And having a poll just to count is better than 15 "I am" "I do" and "me too" posts.

[Cheshire_Theyain]

While I do understand and concede to your point Zelron, I had to use two options because that's what is required when creating a poll.

[Windlord]

39 seems like a healthy number.

If my assumption that inside all Linux geeks lies a hardcore modder is true, Overgrowth is up for quite an exciting future!

[Cheshire_Theyain]

I would mod but there isn't anything I could add that would be of use to others or fun.


If this thread gets at least 50 linux votes I'll probably make a "What's your distro" poll so that the team has a way of knowing what are the more common distros used by their users.

+1

But 52 of us (and counting?) ain't half bad, aye
