EPTI wonder how old TL users are. My guess is that early 20s would be the average, but reading the posts sometimes one would think many are 10 year olds :p
How old are you?
BTW, who among you here is old enough to know "1HL2L"? :D

Why is 16-18 and 19-20 in two groups? if u add them together, its the largest demographic

This poll doesn't make any sense. The way the ages are grouped together makes a bar chart completely useless.

Lets not sweat this fellas. I was less concerned with the instrumentation than with having a general sketch of how old TL users are. The bracketing is framed loosely on the following assumptions:
- <= 10 :
- These are the babies who weren't even around when BW was out. For sure they may be tech savvy already, but they are still in a safe age such that their parents have considerable control over their online activities
11-15 : - late grade school, middle school, and high school students - our budding gamers
16 - 18 - - late high school and early college for some, old enough to be really into BW/SC2/gaming
19-20 : college students
21 - 25 : - late college students or early professionals. they (I included) were old enough when BW was out, but majority of kids who played then was 1 age group older (in my experience at least)
26 - 30 : - professionals already, hopefully. and coincidentally, the real children of BW! those who old enough to remember what "1HL2L" means! xD
31 - 40 : - certified adults now, and one generation too old to claim the BW was theirs
> 41 : - I'd like to know who they are too
Like I said this is informal at best. No grand statistical insight is expected out of this. Just enjoy and chime in your experience is you have some. :D

15, BW first generation.
I've been playing off and on since I was 4.

Seriously now? You remind me of my cousin Bruce. I'm also indoctrinating him on the values of BW. (He'll figure SC2 on his own). xD
Might have not lost interest in BW!
