Whoa! Two CRAP polls in a single month? I know, we're blessed! But
it's not like I have anything better to write about (unless you want
me to go on about NFTs again. No? Then do the poll!)


=====

This one is simple: do you ever watch a game's end credits to the end?

     1) Always! I need to know everyone involved with creating 
        the game I just played, including the caterer! 

     2) Yes, but I fast-forward through them, or only watch 
	until I see the info I'm interested in (like the name 
	of the caterer)

     3) Sometimes... only if I really like the game.

     4) Sometimes... but only if there's some 'bonus' to it, like 
	a secret scene, amusing animations, really good music or 
	an achievement for doing so.

     5) Only if I forget to ESC out of it 'cause I'm asleep or 
	am AFK

     6) Never! Get these words away from me! I care not for 
	the developers (much less their favorite caterer)!

     7) The games I play don't end, so I never reach the credits.

     8) I only play games that don't let me skip the credits 
	(Hello Ubisoft!)


=====

I'm definitely in Camp #4, and it's almost always because they've got
some cool tune rockin' in the background. Sorry devs, I know you put a
lot of effort into the game but honestly, I couldn't care less about
seeing your names. But let me head-bop one last time to the soundtrack
and I'm staring at that scroll till it ends. Or the music ends,
whichever comes first.

But if I don't like the music in the game? I'm slamming ESC to get out
of it so fast it's a wonder my keyboard doesn't break.



But that's just me. Where do you fall on the Spectrum of End Credit
Watchiness (SECW)?
