Gender : Female
USA
Best understanding / Prime Language : "English" (I know a few things here and there in some other languages but I'm not fluent in anything, alas)
Also, yes...there's a difference between American / American "English" and "the other English" there's even a difference between flags!
Just saying.

There's no such thing as "American" by itself that constitutes a language by that designation. It's only American English and the other countries that have other dialects/variations such as England/UK and Australia.

I don't even call it American English, but Global English lol

I get the feeling that I wouldn't want to play the VN's you play in front of other people.

Don't want to blame the fact that japanese people have their own world and has this "bad engrish" syndrome

Lol, maybe in the rpgmaker's site you can find more boys than girls though )

^You'd be surprised how many girls there are on rpgmaker sites. Most of the artists are girls ... it's like universal or something.

If I'm still kinda new here, I would probably think... "Why should I give out my information >:o"
but after being used to lemmasoft and figured out that the people here are nice, I suddenly thought... "Ooh, this looks fun! I'll be part of it too "

[redeyesblackpanda]

Updated! I feel like such a minority here, lol.

Just so this thread doesn't go on forever - let's run it for another week, and then limit it to analysis of the results.

In the meantime, here's some fun demographics. I queried the accounts of the 908 users active for the last 21 days, and then took a look at their birthday year. The result is this graph, which skews older than I thought it would.

What's the chance that so many supercentenarians would congregate on our little forum? Also, take these numbers with a grain of salt - one of the major reasons for giving a birthday is to gain access to the adult forums - and I suspect that some people might have - exaggerate - their age for that purpose.

Why, back in my day, we only had one type of tsundere! And we didn't have no route choices, neither! You took the route your parents planned for you, and dagnabbit, that's they way we liked it!

There's a game mechanic in there, I tell you. (Play Act 1 as the parent, and the rest of the game from the child's perspective.)
