Good man. For once, someone who actually heeds warnings and follows the rules. You deserve a gold star or something.

Still kinda hoping the "<10" votes are trolls.

I'm pretty sure they are trolls. I just can't imagine them on this forum for one thing, especially if they're under 10, i'm also pretty sure they'd have to be supervised when going on the internet so shouldn't be able to play Katawa Shoujo in the first place....hmmm

While I'm not condoning letting children play this game, it doesn't really bother me. I've seen 10 year old children and younger do worse things than playing a visual novel with nudity in it. Likewise, it doesn't bother me if an old-timer is playing as well.

You can't bother me, biatch.

Bein 25 myself I picked the 25+ option, on the logic that I already reached the age of a specified "up to" interval. And being born in may, 26 is closer than 25...

The borders only fail you for that infinitesimal moment in time where you are exactly the border age (e.g. 15 years 0 months 0 days 0 hours minutes 0 seconds 0 tenth-seconds 0 hundredth-seconds ...). If you take the poll before that moment, then you are below the indicated age (so to use the 15yo example, you'd be 14 years 11 months 29 or 30 days old, so you should vote "10-15"). If you take the poll after that moment, then you are above the indicated age. And if it really bothers you that the poll is going to be wrong for you in just a matter of a few days, then ffs don't vote until you're comfortable voting. But it really isn't rocket science, people. Either you're above a given border age (if even only by a few seconds) or you're below it.

31 here. I've been playing Dating Sims/VN's since I was 14. And this is definitely one of the better ones.

Kids under 10 surfing the net under supervision? It's 2012.

That's right, irresponsible parents will never go out of style.

I'll be honest, if I had kids I wouldn't supervise their internet usage. They'd figure out how to find porn regardless, like everyone else does. Hopefully they'll be smart enough to lie about their personal information so nobody gets in trouble.

Meanwhile, I'll be robbing banks.

Thank you.

Also, those that are voting <10 or 70+, even if they are trolls, they are considered "outliers". I know that outliers can in theory affect confidence intervals, but since this is a faux survey, then I'm saying they don't matter.
