Seamus notes:
I was surprised that not one person said they should be PK bashes because
every week when one of the wizzes ask, there are always cries of PK bashes.
A solid 39% of people declared their desire for non-pk bashes to be the norm. Non-pk bashes are usually the most profitable, so we may infer that these voters include the acheivers, the terminally anxious (I choose my words with care), and those people for whom the game is about fun, more than proving themselves. As Seamus may be better known amongst these people, it is no suprise that this preference is well supported.
No-one voted for the PK-only option. Pks are more interested in harming other players than in taking part in polls. Nothing worthwhile can be concluded from this no show, unless we wish to make snide remarks about PKs being unable to do anything constructive.
48% voted for the status quo. No shocker here. I can say with certainty that these people must have included Wizzes :) In addition, people who realise that a prolonged period of no-pk bashes would eventually prove tedious, and everyone else who likes a change from time to time as well as the chance to support the hierachy of the game.
12% voted for the *I don't care* options at the bottom of the poll. These people can be lumped in with the wizzes discretion party, or discounted entirely.
In conclusion if we assume that the poll was not marked by any vote rigging, of those players who expressed any preference - most will be satisfied with things as they are, but with a higher proportion of non-pk bashes. A point which wizzes may or may not take note of.
