our annual medium survey

[weeabhoo]

I made a chart.



Observations:

-From our second to least populous category, several new apps, including the rapid growth of our Dragon Age cast has propelled Video Games to the most populous category

-We have about the same number of total characters as this time last year but our activity itself is much higher

-We still have a higher proportion of book characters than 99% of all RPs.

-There was some overlap. Characters who fit in more than one category were counted for both.

I also calculated our number of obscure vs non-obscure characters. Admittedly this is an extremely arbitrary calculation, based on whether I see these characters being RPed.

This was inevitable. All the Sean Bean voices shall be yours.

That video game number is about to go up; we might have yet another DA character apping. I almost feel guilty about the degree to which they/we are swarming in. Except not, because damn, so many awesome players. Trying to lure in another Skyrim character I've found as well. Bwaha.

I love how many obscure and OCs we have, especially considering how well-designed the OCs are. Brilliant.

A friend is applying Delphine from Skyrim and we have a Lucien Lachance on reserve, so yeah, video games are going up.

Sweet! I'm trying to lure us an Aela from dear_mun. =)

I'd curious as to what series you considered to be obscure~

[weeabhoo]

I remember all of yours but Saber's went into the obscure column

Seems legit. Note that Anna Lin counts as both Tabletop and OC for our purposes, possibly also Video Game.
