Hey... I don't know what happened to the old thread. It's been deleted, but I don't think a mod did it, or it would've been locked and moved to the Recycling forum... It looks like Lithium just ate it, as it does from time to time.
Because of that, I'm just going to start it again and hope the same thing doesn't occur. I thank all of you who had responded, but I foolishly didn't record your responses, so as of now I have no data. If you could reply again, I'd appreciate it.
I need at least 30 responses from each group (student and non-student) for this to work, so the more I can get, the better.
Here's how it works:
For my Statistics final, I'm supposed to gather data and interpret it. I have the suspicion that students (those who consider themselves to be primarily in an educational institution) play more hours of MXO than non-students, at least among the part of the community that uses the forums. So, in order to test this, I need each person replying to this thread to list, roughly, how many hours per week they play, followed by whether or not they consider themselves a student or a non-student.
My entry looks like this:
Time spent playing MXO per week: 30 hours
I am a student.
Thanks again for your help. I think I'm going to copy entries to a text file as they're made, so that even if the boards eat the topic again, we should be okay.

PS. If for some reason this thread was deleted by a mod, I apologize for restarting it. That said, I'd be surprised if there was anything objectionable in it... Unless you happen to hate stats class as much as I do.
