Why don't you use google docs to make a spread sheet? The poll is easy to fill out and that way everyone can see the results in an easy pie chart. If anyone bothers to answer this one, you won't have any idea what the results are after the first page or two.

Alright! I posted the poll a few times in Aeolus over the course of a day, and got 42 responses. I'm going to call it here, because the longer it runs the higher chance of people submitting twice.

Results here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rWypmn ... rm_confirm
The results! :
  • People think Cybran are cool. Makes sense to me, they're robo-russians with nanotech, and heaps of cool tricks.
  • Respondents are best at Cybran and Seraphim. This surprises me, as I expected UEF to be the clear winner.
  • The general opinion is that Aeon are OP, with UEF as the runner up. Looking at you, auroras, harbs, percies.
  • Most people think that the Seraphim are the most powerful in the lore. Again, this is sensible, since all the other factions had to forge an alliance to fight them back. Curiously, however, a large number of people think the Cybran are the most powerful.

Some other comments:
  • Aeon actually had the most 'fanboys' (ie: people who voted Aeon in all categories) with three. UEF was second with two, and the Cybran only had one fanatic. The seraphim apparently need to work on their indoctrination, as they had nobody who was sworn to their service.
  • The google automatic colours almost lined up perfectly with the SupCom faction colours, except that while supcom goes blue-red-green-yellow, google goes blue-red-yellow-green. So Aeon and Seraphim are the other colour in the analytics page. This isn't important, but I thought it was cool.
  • There seems to be little correlation between what people think are cool, what people think they are best at, and what people think are OP. I'd need to do some proper analytics on this to say for sure, but I don't know the technique with this sort of data. Nevertheless, it's interesting to me that people don't necessarily play what they think is OP, or rely on the OP things for their success.
