t's time for the survey results! I closed it after two weeks of no responses, and have finally delivered the goods after looking over everything.
The link to the summary of the survey results, in handy dandy graph form for most things.
Beyond that, here, have a few interesting tidbits of facts that cannot be easily determined.
Our average age this year is 20.984, almost but not quite old enough to drink; this is, perhaps surprisingly enough, a slight drop from last year at 21.4. That said, it's still reflecting a slow upward aging of the PPC. At this rate, we're going to need to start a PPC Parents Support Group. Remember, folks, spiking the formula with Bleeprin is just not on.
Rather importantly, this is also the first year in the PPC's history that we've had gender parity according to the survey; 49% is male, 49% female. This is a huge spike from 2009 when 76.32% of us were female.
25 out of the 63 -39.68%- respondents this year originated from TvTropes.
39% of respondents had a lapse of sanity and momentarily thought that non-fiction was a genre of original fiction.
Special mentions goes out to the following:
Huinesoron, who was the very first respondent this year,
Akikolo, who can find the original series and pretty much everything about the PPC in an easy to read and understandable manner through our handy dandy wiki,
And finally AnnaBee, who listed a record amount of Lust Objects despite the question being "Lust Object?", with a total of 48 named characters, anyone played by Robert Downey Junior, and the cast of Hetalia, and others she mentioned she forgot which suggests the number is actually higher than 100, and thus proving that quantity does matter.
Please do not break my spreadsheet next year.
