It just needs twenty tethered hummingbirds to bear some of the weight, with two hanging baskets full of flowers above to keep them amused and fed (because I am not a monster).

YOU'RE A BAD PERSON

I can save your time; eventually he ends up arguing for NSA-style powers to suck the data out of people's machines because polling is so last century. I'm done.

Good policy, but it still helps if there's some consensus beyond that. Sometimes people throw in a different new game's spoiler because of its relevance to the game under discussion in the article!

It's possible the whole row of seats was moving due to people down the line. I've been in that situation trying to reverse muscle movement against what's happening, like a less hairy Grumpy Cat, and it can't be done.

I'm 90% sure Miley has never been high on anything, except maybe booze. She strikes me as the kind of person whose friends give him/her a paracetamol so they can laugh 20 minutes later, when the victim claims to be rushing so hard and goes around hugging everyone.

There are browser plugins that circumvent those problems. Wait until next week to install them.

Exactly this. It's not sad because it's "trashy", it's sad because it's so unconvincing. Also because it confirms the tongue is an attempt at a trademark and we're stuck with it for at least 12 more months of Miley.

I INSIST THAT YOU BRING IT

I was just going through my notifications and answered your other question first with the info that's in the post you've just found, in case you hadn't seen it. If it was a survey of 300 people I would understand your beef about variables, but that's why they've done 3000. A sample of 3000 does not preserve or amplify…

Yes, yes I do.

The differential imbalance between males using their mom's/gf's/wife's device and females using their dad's/bf's/husband's device would have to be gigantic to account for what we're seeing here. I think you might just have to accept the results. The bucking of beliefs about gender is interesting, but the main story is…

Yeah, I'm with you on this.

Exactly. Taking silent usage data direct from the devices could only have meaning if people used a common account like Ubisoft's Uplay across all of their devices, and of course there's nothing like that which could possibly encompass all gaming, on all platforms, in all company's games.

Oh sure, be utterly vague with a phrase like "this data" and then get annoyed when someone interprets it to mean "the data everyone else is talking about in this article and this comment thread".

I don't think that's true. I didn't watch it, but BBC recently wrapped up a series it imported from New Zealand starring Elizabeth Moss ("Top of the Lake"). I don't think there were any other Scientologists in the cast, and if that rumour was true then I'm sure she'd have no shortage of projects she could do in the…

Ah, so you just don't believe any surveys at all.

They're terrified of the future, and want to deny anything that will support change. For them, it's bad enough that "Gone Home" exists, but to them it's a game from a "radical feminist agenda" only of interest to fringe "social justice warriors". That one game is more than they're comfortable with, and, uh, I'm sure…

Indeed, but what about the outlier respondents who were women who don't play themselves but made purchases to allow male family/friends to play on their phone? I expect these anomalous people on both side of the gender divide, who I suspect are a negligible number anyway, would balance each other out.

They're not tracking the device, they're asking the owner if they buy mobile games, and if they buy console games too, and so on. The number who would say "yes" because they once or twice bought games so their girlfriend/wife could play on their phone, but do no partake themselves, is going to be pretty small - not…
