Average age of a Glitcher?

With so much discussion going on about the "right" age a player/tester needs to be, it has me feeling very curious as to what the average age of a glitch tester/gamer is? soooo I thought hay I'm gona be rude and ask.
I don't want to be to impolite so am adding age brackets for those who do not really want to give to much away. It's just for fun ;)
A 13-17
B 18-25
C 26-35
D 36-45
E 46-55
F 56+
I am D  ;)   edit to add under 13-A*

edit results are now in http://beta.glitch.com/forum/general/5415/

  • Meh, I'll just post in here, I don't need to post anonymously. I don't care who knows that I'm 62 :D 
    I for one, am not embarrassed of my age.

  • I dont see the point in posting anonymously anyway, I like PittyPat have nothing to hide, and I would not have bothered reading and replying here if I was that worried about it.

  • According to stoot there are "tens of thousands of people in the queue" for beta testing.  Any poll done before then will be pretty meaningless.

  • This is supposed to be a little bit of fun info. Im not planning on selling cat food with the statistics lol :)
    Posted 20 months ago by Misha Subscriber! | Permalink
  • That is so right WindBorn. And like Misha says, this thread is just for fun. I've been happy to see people who are close to my age and to hear a bit about people who like sharing a bit of themselves in here. 
    Off to play Glitch! I think it's opened in the nick of time!

  • Misha, I'd consider making an entirely new thread for the poll you just created. This is quite the hot topic, really, and the link you posted will quickly be lost in the sea of replies unless you frequently re-post it. I don't think anyone would mind a fresh thread.

  • @Vexia I have not posted a link to anything. I have a open spread sheet and am making up the numbers as their postsing, along with a pie chart etc :) There is nothing of mine to get lost :)

  • Vexia am I not right in thinking this was Misha's  thread to start with titled "average age of Glitcher"? so why the need to start a new thread? or am I just being blonde :)

  • This thread is extremely useful, cause it captures the demographic (willing to participate) as we transition into beta. Another as we head into live would show how the rough demographic has changed. The whole point of alpha and beta testing is seeing this stuff develop.

  • Wow, one thing to hijack a thread like BobApple, jk, but to go start a new one albeit anon is just plain rude in my book! Ever heard of communication/ co-operation Hburger, maybe you never watched Sesame Street!
    Posted 20 months ago by Teena Subscriber! | Permalink
  • @Travinara, thanks. It started of just me being a nosy parkier, but then the info is really interesting. It is never going to be really note worthy [although a chart is being made] but it is a little snap shot of who is testing and using the forums right now :)

  • Porn name (using first pet/street formula) is Hunny Dexter!

  • Yes PA, you certainly do, LOL

  • I'm an A in here, but have lots of FSR friends that my guess, are roughly D or E. I think I also had a friend that belonged to category E at some point. 
    PS: it's like talking bra cup sizes in here..........

  • My porn name would have to be Misty Katlian, meh, not so great.
    Posted 20 months ago by PittyPat is sad Subscriber! | Permalink
  • @PittyPat.... your game name might just rank right up there! :)

    ps:  the devs can't change out user names, can they? 

    (Preparing to earn the Hunny Dexter moniker if necessary)

  • I don't know what you mean by devs changing out usernames, PA, but if desired you can change your username. Just go to your Account page and click the Name Change Petition.
    Posted 20 months ago by Cupcake Subscriber! | Permalink
  • LOL, no cupcake.  But thanks very much for the heads up.

    I was just a tad concerned that a dev might take this discussion (porn names) to heart and insert a name change as a joke.

    (And let me add that you do your Dad proud.  Glad to have you as a fellow Glitcher)
    Posted 20 months ago by Pirate Apples Subscriber! | Permalink
  • LOL! I don't think you need to worry. And thanks very much :)

  • My game name, really?! :-o Yeah, you could be right <blush> Maybe I had better start thinking of a new name... 
    :D

  • Ya'll are hilarious.
    For the record, I'm a married female geek artist Pagan in her mid 20's who keeps cats and exotic pets.
    That should put me in at least a handful of distinct demographics....

    I'm not really scared of much when it comes to online info.
    If someone can hack my bank account, I'm with Bob - Go ahead.
    And leave me $100 to let me know you were there.
    As an artist, I have to have my info out there as I sell my stuff online, so the really determined can find it if they look hard enough. I only use an alias in games to foil the not very determined loonies. And my alias is shorter to type and harder to misspell than my birth name. More fun too.
    If anyone wants to buy me bras though, since someone brought it up, I'm a D there.

    My pornstar name would be Jasmine Glenwood.

  • D heading for E. I am so psyched to see my people here. I assumed everyone was in the Bieber generation. Though I still find it hard to parse the tech speak, no matter how decrepit you all are.

    (My porn star name is Jimmy Rude, which is cool if a tad masculine.)

  • Good bless you Murri - or should I say Miss Jasmine........Bras and an Artist.....who could ask for more!!   ;-)

  • Bang slap in the middle of E  and my name? Shandy Mactaggart! Now is that a porn star or the janitor in the Simpsons? Maybe Shandy Melrose would get me more work ;)

  • E ~ for me... And loving it.  I get more comfortable with who I am with each passing year.  Who am I .. you might ask.  Why, I'm a glitchaholic, whos bent over at the glitch door, peeping in the keyhole to try and see what is going on in there right now.

  • Very interesting indeed. At this present moment in time and if I have these figures right..Pat is keeping a close eye on me [ thanks PittyPat] then the F and the B group are neck and neck at 16.5% :)  More data to come in a few day's so  keep them coming and again thank you :)
    Posted 20 months ago by Misha Subscriber! | Permalink
  • If that's the case, @Misha, I can see that there might be some bias in these numbers, as those two age groups are likely to be the most proud (or the least embarrassed) to admit their age...
    Posted 20 months ago by Shepherdmoon Subscriber! | Permalink
  • The bias is that over 99% of the players have not answered the poll.  You can't make generalizations about the alpha players from the responses of a couple hundred who were all friends on another site.

    99% of Glitchers are indifferent to posting their age.
