My lady works for MT and will be working for Origins shortly.  She is learning how to Fred, and is coming along.

The FS community has a particularily bad ratio :p

As perfect as my memory may be, the listing of people who are of little consequence, infrequent appearance and shallowness of mentality is of infinitecimal importance to me and, as such, their names are kept on a tiny piece of paper, locked in a tiny little box, surrounded by larger, more important boxes in the vast library that is my recollective faculty.

Put simply: I remember everything and everyone, but I am far too lazy to list them all.

Lo. There're a couple of girls at SG, but I think they're descenters rather thanFreespacers.

Well, my girlfriend's a Freespacer, since I introduced it to her some time last year.

 
DW-Suzanna indeed springs to mind.

Once the iso version of FSO is done, I'll convert some people over to the faith.

My sister plays the game, but doesn't come here. Some of her friends might as well, I'm not sure.

My friend Corey's three sisters all play. After playing Terminal Velocity forever, FS2_Open kinda blew them away...but so far as I know, they only play LAN games.

I voted to the 100 / 1 option, however, the number of males to one female is far higher, it is around 400-500.

Better than my estimate I chose 1000/1

   Incidently I would never again get my significant other involved in my hobbies if she didn't ALREADY share them. Cause when it ends you loose divided friends, then whole gaming groups... :(

You can't have a ratio that's irrational.  It's a mathematical law! :D
