I think at this point we can reasonably assume people are boxing forum accounts to vote more than once.

If you can figure out some way to get all the players to come to the forums and vote I'll be mighty impressed.

Until such a time, the current poll numbers reflect those that come to the forums (usually a small percentage of any game community) and took/take the time to vote.
I only see a few NO's. So I gotta say...

If you can figure out some way to get all thee supposed "NO's" to come to the forums and vote I'll be mighty impressed.

Server peaks around 1800. We got 614 votes. "Small percentage" you say? Ha.

The resistance from the handful of NO's is quite funny [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You can't ignore the silent majority just because they're silent. Take the 2016 US election as a good example of this. Or a bad example because of your personal beliefs about the electoral college. Whatever. Not everyone cares to show their face on the forum. Believe it or not, some people (I'm guessing a large majority) actually do just want to play the game as-is and be left alone. You keep repeating "WE HAVE 600 VOTES!" like you're taking a victory lap. You have 600 total votes, and 450 of them agree with you. You actually do NOT have 600 votes to support your position.

I guess we can't do science because testing a large sample of the population doesn't produce accurate results *rolls eyes*

Calculate it yourself https://www.surveymonkey.com/mp/sample-size-calculator/

Population of 1800. If you want a stringent 99% confidence interval with 5% margin of error, you only need 487 people. We got 614.

Peak population is not the same as total population.

So what? The numbers are overwhelming and the sample size is large. But hey....

If you can figure out some way to calculate the total number of players I'll be mighty impressed.

Let's double it. 3600. Needed sample size is then 562.

Same stringent requirements (99% confidence, 5% error)

Until you break 6,000 active players, you're going to get 99% confidence with 5% margin of error with 600 votes.

Considering the 40% spread, the conclusion is clear.

I'm sorry that 400 or so of you discovered that you don't actually like classic server population size. You should really request a refund.
