Mission Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 I need your help! I'm taking a Statistics Class and we have to do a project that involves collecting statistical data. I need to get 30 unique responses and I thought this would be an interesting place to do it. Because a lot of the members here tend to stick to certain forums, I'm posting this in several of them (Beyond Pyracy, Captain Twill, Pirate Crews - Pyrates of Europe and Pirate Popto get the needed number of responses. Please only respond once and please answer them all if you decide to respond. (I'll post the results on my website with a link to them here.) Thanks for your help! ~Mission Pyracy Pub Poll Questions a. How re-enactment opportunities did you have in 2006 (pirate and non-pirate)? b. How many different pirate or pirate-related characters do you portray? c. Were your pirate or pirate-related characters based more on historic or movie/fantasy figures? d. Do you sail or work in a sea-related field or do you re-enact purely for escapism? My answers would be: a. 0 b. 1 c. historic d. escapism Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."
