Yes, I knew this poll would help foster even more discussion about genres! ;-) I figured that several of us wouldn't be happy with any of the categories, and want to see an addition. Indeed, I though the "other" might be a good way to learn about some new genres I hadn't heard of, yet. Still, my guess is that most people will consider one of those genres their favorites (esp. now that I've added in sports/racing.) :-)
BTW, here's a link to Bill's article about game genres. It's much more nuanced than this poll!
