gaters.net polls summary
Polls. We either love em or hate em, but they're here in abundance. I just did a quick review of all the ones available and summarised them below. Hopefully it'll create a few laughs, and perhaps give you an understanding of how most of us think around here.
The percentages are rounded up, and I haven't always included every answer, I just tried to show the majority, and any other interesting/relevant bits.
I have put several results in spoiler spaces, so it's safe for everyone to read these regardless of where you're up to in the series.
