27% of you said 'six or more' – TMP link

24% said 'four of us'
23% said 'mostly me and one other'

Would be hard put to be able to gather 4 at the same time. Especially for anything more than an afternoon.
All seem lost into the occasional stuff, and a lot are into fantasy with fantasy figures or with historical figures, sometimes even acurately painted.
The 2 hours+ a day of thumb exercise on "social media" ends up to eat the 10 hours that could have been put into wargaming. After all other things just take the same time as they used to.

Dedicated, cultured historical wargamers are a dying specie. Of course 30-50% of the replacement have no connection at all with what made us vibrate when we where kids.
Maybe I will bury some painted figures to puzzle Chinese archeologues in a thousand year from now.

This is where we get the phrase "figures lie, and liars figure". It's not the polling that is wrong but the interpretation.

Statistics 101

So, in other words, 73% (the majority) said they game with fewer than six.
