Alternative interpretation of results
Thanks ironration, pretty interesting results. Still, i briefly calculated some other figures from the poll, which i feel are just as interesting.
I looked at the total failure rate of each of the products ( % of people opting for 5.No hits, would not recommend this product) Then subtracted that from 100. The table i have made therefore reflects the percentage of people who have had any kind of positive reaction from the product.
For the sake of consitency i\'ve used ironrations 10 people or more criteria for any product included.
1. SOE : 89%
2. AE : 80%
3. NPA : 78%
4. PI/m : 75%
5. PF : 70%
6. RM : 67%
= JB#1 : 67%
8. APC : 66%
9. TE : 62%
10. PI/w : 55%
11. SPMO : 54%
This table suggests how reliable a certain product is at producing a reaction. JVK seems to know what he is doing (not that we doubted that anyway). Maybe those not getting results should try SOE first as from these results it looks as if its going to get some reaction. However, the results from SOE/APC/SPMO may be slightly skewed by its nice fragrance which can be used as a base, thus allowing it to avoid many total failure ratings. If all the results in the 4. category (Occasional hits, would recommend only for the nice fragrance or to be used in a mix) were assumed to be just from the fragrance, were classed also to be failures, then categories 4/5 could be combined to produce a new total failure rate.
Including that assumption the table now reads as follows.
1. AE : 75%
= NPA : 75%
3. SOE : 64%
4. PI/m : 63%
5. TE : 57%
6. PI/w : 55%
7. JB#1 : 53%
8. RM : 51%
9. PF : 47%
10. APC : 32%
11. SPMO : 08%
This table also gives the percentage of people who always get some consistent kind of reaction from their product. AE, NPA and SOE appear to be kings, they have all secured a top 3 place in all 3 tables produced so far!
