11.3 Probability in Society

I decided to study a survey/community vote conducted by The Valve corporation onĀ  to decide which games on their gaming platform/gaming application were the considered the best in certain categories. Steam users were able to cast their votes between December 22, 2016 and January 2, 2017. The population sampled were Steam users, and the type of sample was voluntary response. The influencing factors were that there were 5 choices for each category, and they were popular games, but there are some games that are less popular but would have fit better than some of the choices that were given. Most of the games that won were competitive, could be replayed multiple times, were difficult/challenging, and/or games that had you playing with others. In my opinion, most steam users enjoy playing online games with others, and/or enjoy playing games that can be replayed multiple times, or that never end.
