I need to do a poll of my community for a class project, that's literally the only requirement so this was the easiest to do... Also, why isn't there a thread like this already? I'm really surprised that no one's thought of this... If you've got a birthday within a week or two, list your new and improved age.

normal distribution centered at 17 with a standard deviation of 2.6
interesting study in a year would be if this shifts up, or stays relatively the same

As for the rest of you, thanks for contributing to this! From what I can tell (it's an online class that I'm doing) I've got the most voters in my poll out of the rest of the people who posted... Apparently they all just did a inner-family poll or went to a few houses in their neighborhood, winning this project.

thx.

Possibly, but there wasn't a draft or anything, so I don't think it would affect it that much.

e: I kind of spaced it on my naming. $year refers to the age of the person, not the year they were born. Otherwise I would be better off tracking the $minYear as well, so I don't print a bunch of zeroes from the year 0 through the mid nineteen hundreds. :P

I like how the majority of 17 18 and/or quite possibly 19 and 20 year olds may have purchased halo b/w 2004 and 2005 when we still haven't reached that age of "maturity".

Wait. The Gulf War doesn't explain why there's a dip at 16 and a spike at 18. The older you are, the further back in time we go, remember? So the spike was BEFORE the Gulf War. Meaning that argument makes no sense, because there is only a little spike after the Gulf War ends.
Also, my girlfriend is 16. I'm 15, going to be 16 pretty much once ODST comes out.

Defining maturity by an arbitrary age is one of the most incredibly retarded things going, I pay no heed whatsoever to ratings and nor did my parents. I don't plan to when I have kids, either. I think I'll be the judge of what they can or can't handle, not some out-of-touch idiot sitting behind a desk in the OFLC.
