This is very even! Almost 30% in each race.

None other RTS can achieve this kind of balance race distribution.

But I guess more people will use protoss in the release, they are more noob friendly. (Noob = who do not know how to wall off as human.)
Dont be too humble, you are not that great.

Started off with Toss for a week then switched to Terran full time (During Feb).

Wow, a poll where my vote actually made a difference O.o. I play toss. From BW, where I played toss exclusively. Now I dabble a bit in zerg, but can't stand terran. Oh my god, I hate terran. Hate playing it, hate playing against it.

Zerg. I originally went with them because people said they were underpowered. Guess I proved em all wrong.

Not sure why I stuck with zerg. I think I just liked the vibe.

But I started playing random later on -- occasionally picking terran or zerg.

Wow! equal at 172 votes! Great outcome! I'm surprised there are as many randoms as there are, because I rarely find them in the gold/platinum league.

I've been switching around every patch, but now I'm pretty settled on Zerg.

Terran, I dabbled a bit in zerg/toss (got into plat on each back when it was the highest division), but never near as much as terran.
I didn't really play sc1 in any kind of competitive fashion (I was like 12 or something when it came out). I did play warcraft 3 ladder quite extensively for the first year or so (i was like 16). Later I also went back to war3 for the expo for a good year. I kept giving up RTS in favor of MMORPG (EQ and WoW) but I grew increasingly more disgusted by the way time-investment/luck would factor over skill in the competitive scene. While I generally favor an "anti-cry" stance on balance changes ect. it was just stupid how many balance changes were going on all the time in WoW, basically the game was different every 2 months to keep up with the catass raid guilds.
I got into sc2 through a WoW contact, haven't looked back since. I had been looking for a reason to quit WoW anyway, but it there wasn't any RTS that seemed playable (BW battle.net seems dead).
When I was first thinking about what race to pick, I remembered some old boxer replays I saw back when I was playing WC3 (I was visting TillerMaN's guild site, which had a whole boxer replay section).
The way he microed drops just made Terran seem like such a cool race if mastered. I kind of thought Terran would be a harassment/micro oriented race. And if there's one thing I love its harassment.
That being said, T doesn't seem to actually have the monopoly on harassment, its more of the turtle race. But I've gotten rather accustomed to their "style" now, and I'm not regretting my decision.
That being said, I cant help but thing "god damn it" when my thors slowly move to the opposite side of my base to deal with mutas, or I have to constantly micro vs blink stalker/VR destroying my base. I guess its karma.

Terran for life. Not that I actually like humans, the game play experience is best.

I played mainly Protoss since I was maining Protoss in SC. Once the full game comes out, I will play the other 2 races more extensively.

Protoss. Been playing them since 1999, so I says why stop now.

Dabbled in the other races towards the end of the beta, but 90% of my games were with protoys.

Wow, seems like the race selection for TL is pretty even.

Pretty impressive that Blizz manages to create 3 equally attractive races, and even through that, they keep them all pretty balanced...

Yeah it seem very odd, I don't really like the fact you can see the results before voting but that might just be me.
In War: Resolution. In Defeat: Defiance. In Victory: Magnanimity. In Peace: Goodwill.

This is why I don't trust these poll because alot of people don't vote honestly but rather for some other reason since they can see the results so far.

I started off with zerg. Which I did quite well with actually (I used only z in bw). But I love the mechanics of the other two races, so I decided even though my play is poor with the other two races I will play as random!

Is there a way to not show results until I close the poll? If there isn't TL should consider adding this because it would make it very legitimate. Still pretty accurate,

I too am surprised how equal the distribution is, freaky. I play terran, have since I first started playing the beta. I played Zerg in BW, and i had always intended on switching to zerg eventually, but I ended up having so much fun with terran I felt little reason to switch. Especially considering all the crying over how boring zerg is.

When the game goes live I intend on playing with toss and zerg in 2v2's and 3v3's but will most probably stick with Terran for ladder.
