Poll results

From 2 July 2016 to 10 June 2017, the following eleven polls ran on the Gaia website. It’s time to present the results. Most of the polls also ran on Sandra and Woo. So also check out the results @ Sandra and Woo since I’ll usually just point out the differences to those results here.

Poll from 2 July 2016:

Poll Nr. 30

The correct answer Greendew only received 4%. As a reader, I probably would have guessed the tower in the sky as well.

Poll from 2 July 2016:

Poll Nr. 31

72% of our readers read at most seven other fantasy comics. That’s not a big surprise given the rather low number of straight fantasy webcomics. Gaia is one of just a handful of webcomics that tell a serious adventure story in a classical fantasy setting. That’s a bit surprising given the popularity of the genre.

Poll from 2 July 2016:

Poll Nr. 32

The number of Gaia readers who also read Sandra and Woo is very high and almost identical to the 82% when this question was asked in a poll from 1 October 2013.

Poll from 2 July 2016:

Poll Nr. 33

This result is almost identical to the one of the same poll that ran on Sandra and Woo.

Poll from 24 December 2016:

Poll Nr. 34

This result is almost identical to the one of the same poll that ran on Sandra and Woo.

Poll from 24 December 2016:

The vistors of the Sandra and Woo website show more interest in visual novels if the poll results are representative for the whole readership.

Poll from 24 December 2016:

Poll Nr. 36

This result is almost identical to the one of the same poll that ran on Sandra and Woo.

Poll from 24 December 2016:

The average age of the computer of Gaia readers is a little bit older than that of Sandra and Woo readers.

Poll from 24 December 2016:

Poll Nr. 38

This result is almost identical to the one of the same poll that ran on Sandra and Woo.

Poll from 20 February 2017:

Poll Nr. 39

“Breaking All Barriers #139” and “Breaking All Barriers Cover” are also my favorites from the 15 pages placed between 11 and 25 from the last two chapters “Breaking all Barriers” and “Monster”.

Poll from 27 February 2017:

Poll Nr. 40

I’m not at all surprised that “Breaking All Barriers #125” won the reader’s choice for the best page from my selection of the 10 best pages the last two chapters. I added “Breaking All Barriers #139”, the winner of the poll above, as an additional choice. I suspected that it would not come last, but that it managed to make it all the way up to place #2 is a bit of a surprise to me. The three pages from “Monster” all got a solid 11% of all votes. My personal favorite “Breaking All Barriers #106” only got 8% of all votes. The pages “Breaking All Barriers #36” and “Monster #79” may be examples for pages that you just appreciate more as an author than as a reader. However, I wouldn’t have voted for them as my absolute favorite as well, so the low amount of votes they got isn’t shocking.

There are four new polls that appear randomly in the voting widget in the right sidebar:

  • Who is your favorite main character?
  • Who is your favorite secondary character?
  • Which is your favorite chapter?
  • What’s your favorite hair color on Viviana?
