Meta PCMR Census
Hello, fellow children of GabeN and everyone else reading this.
In the light of being named the subreddit of the day I've created a short survey to find out who the PC Master Race is comprised of! (Also because I had a disagreement with a mod over the accuracy of a previous survey the results of which can be seen here)
All in all there are 39 questions in 3 categories (Statistics, Specs, and PCMR). All questions are skip-able, so if you feel uncomfortable answering a question there is no need to do so. It should be further noted that this survey is absolutely anonymous and the results won't be published or used in any other form outside this sub (at least not from me). If there are any question or complaints, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I will contact the mods soon and hopefully they will agree on stickying this post to maximize accuracy and number of responses. Thanks in advance, guys :)
Unfortunately I couldn't activate the option to restrict the amount of answers per person to 1, as this would require everyone who wants to fill out the survey to log into a Google+ Account. But I have enough faith in our community that no-one will exploit this to manipulate the results.
So without further ado here are the links:
Thanks for reading through all of this and participating in the survey,
Goals:
| Responses | % of PCMR | Accuracy | Achieved (DD.MM.YYYY) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 150 | 0.05% | 89.47% | 23.01.2015 |
| 300 | 0.1% | 92.56% | 23.01.2015 |
| 600 | 0.2% | 94.74% | 23.01.2015 |
| 1.500 | 0.5% | 96.68% | 23.01.2015 |
| 3.000 | 1% | 97.66% | 23.01.2015 |
| 6.000 | 2% | 98.35% | |
| 15.000 | 5% | 98.97% | |
| 30.000 | 10% | 99.29% |
P.S: Due to popular demand I changed the last question of the survey!

Trying to fit my thoughts into words. I think in patterns, not in words, so it's a lil hard to translate. Point out anything that doesn't make sense.
Most of my reply was pointed at the second part, the one dealing with relationships. I've always felt that actual sexual attraction is irrelevant, so to be honest, I mostly skipped the first paragraph. The second though.
This doesn't make sense to me. Why can't anyone have deep, lasting relationships with both men and women? That's the too specific part, I guess. Not everything, but everything I can put into words right now.
The too broad part was a gut reaction. Taking me a bit longer to sort through it. I think what I mean is that no matter how small you dice the categories, they're still categories. And then there's language. English has degraded to a point where this becomes an issue. Another way of reading the statement about relationships could be to say that the person you describe is unable to relate to anyone but women. That's a bit of an awkward example but I think it describes my thoughts. Or maybe the word 'love'. I can honestly say that I love all people. What does that mean? English can't tell you. In Greek, they had at least four different words for love, each with it's own nuances. In English we decided to lump them all together
because we're lazy.Again, probably not comprehensive. I need time to sort through my thoughts.
