We had 2650-2900 responses, depending on whether they finished the survey or not.

Graphs:

Well, yeah.

[image loading]


I think the spike at age 25 is an error. It's possible that people over the age of 25 chose to answer that they were 25 because they did not know there was a 2nd age poll. If you compare the number of responses to the gender poll to the number of responses to the age polls, this theory becomes more likely.

I wonder what the "other" respondents identify as.

[image loading]


It's unreal to me that most people on TL aren't from the USA.

[image loading]


60%! But far less than 60% of respondents indicated that they'd never spent money on eSports stuff. Money doesn't equal contribution?

[image loading]


A little over a third of respondents adblock TL's ads.

Woohoo! Any chance that the OP could link the previous years' polls to compare? I know we've talked about ages and ethnicities at the very least!

Regarding the final esports question. Technically buying the game or going to blizzard or gaming events are esports related so pretty much everyone who has gone to blizzcon, or bought the game would answer yes. Also, I have gone to MLGs and stuff where I didn't pay so what does that count as?
