Well, even better would be to let folks enter in their exact age.

Interesting how you’ve grouped ages in neat 5, 10 or 15 year ranges, then all of a sudden it’s effectively 40 to dead!

Hmm. I suddenly got curious about age. Maybe the next one can have choices for

A) <15
B) 15-19
C) 20-24
D) 25-29
E) 30-39
F) 40+

I’ll try. I do like colorful graphs.

Great stuff PoV. I second the notion that we do this kind of survey-thing regularly, or at least semi-regularly; it’d be great to see how these numbers evolve as the community grows.

That MrFun is quite a character.

So, I would say refine these questions and propose the survey again in the hours before the next LD48 in December. It should probably be a regular thing too, so we can track it as the years go on.

ditto to @fydo, great effort gathering / publishing these up! I’ve always been damn curious.

PS: Opening joke was thought of by mrfun. It’s so absurd, I just had to use it.

If you didn’t catch it, shame on you.
