Adding gender graphs?

Seryphim · Posted: Thu Mar 22, 2007 2:11 pm Post subject: Adding gender graphs?

Is it possible to be able to split the races in to genders?

This would be good to see what classes seem to appeal to what genders.

I assume you mean actual person gender or do you mean in game gender? I'll have to see what kind of sample size I have for user gender, but I could come up with some reliable character gender information for sure.

In game gender seems possible. The latter does not, statistically, seem so. Large std. dev. bla bla bla, blah blah blah.

I'll try to remember to run some reports this weekend to get a snapshot view. I'll add it to my list of things to add to the site for ongoing informational purposes.

I predict Priests to be the most popular class amongst the females.

And I'll say Warriors as the least most popular female class.

And for the Males... hmm.... thats a hard one =X

I daresay warlocks or mages will be the least popular females.

Think night elf.

Rollie, why don't you use the armory for the gender information? Basicly you only need to grab it once per char Smile

. So if someone adds a new one, grab data from the armory and add it to a char Smile

.

Was about to give you some char info but it seems all chars are awaiting updating at the armory Sad

I think Rollie is using the Armory for the gender information, because if you look at some of the female chars they have the default female picture for their race showing up.

I dont get how a druid could be the top hordes in your first list.....

5489 Tauren Druid 1 2.4966

But still its only 200 thousand out of 4 million active characters.

btw very nice stats Rollie!
