I think that the other 2 races have a lot more extroverted personalities behind them, it's just that they don't like posting on TL. If you look at the statistics at sc2ranks, zerg is the least played race, so this data isn't necessarily the most accurate. It's maybe a good representation of TL, but not all sc2 gamers. Agreed. The data is definitely only a representation of forum users (We have Battle.net [NA] forum data as well in the collection). I agree with your assessment that the high "I" turnout is likely due to more interest from an introverted personality in this type of study,... along with the strong likelihood that a forum user is more often an introvert. Vaux is doing an excellent job weighting the race statistics by comparing to actual population from sc2ranks data, however. He has even found a means to establish more accurate representation of the Terran data, despite low turnout (because it seems a LOT of people who play just 20 games and quit tend to play as Terran [presumably from the campaign experience]) and when accounting for that, the resultant analysis is much more plausible. I'm very excited to see his next report. I'll get the TL spreadsheet updated shortly. Battle.net interest dropped - I'll likely try to re-spark the contributions there once a little time has passed and there is a fresh set of posters/readers. Many Thanks again for all of the contributions. I'll update the thread again once Vaux has his full analysis complete. :-D | ||

Maybe it could be that a certain personality does significantly worse with a specific race, and should consider swapping to their personality-optimal race :D It would be very interesting indeed if someone were to find they are more proficient in another race after reviewing our data. I only really expect to review what race certain personalities gravitate toward, though. My expectation is that it's more of a "preference" thing than it is "proficiency",... Of course, that's simply my assumption and by no means does that make it accurate. :D If you have any suggestions for increasing the sample size, please let me know! I'd like to get some interest beyond forum contributors too, so we can see if different sources result in different distribution. Briz will have a submission form for the site sometime in the near future - so the contributions wont necessarily have to come through a forum post or E-Mail (though it certainly still can!) Edit: I've updated the OP with some new info. | ||
