And where do you take the 66.000? So in your opinion the RM3 group consists of nobody but the people on Facebook and Twitter? Is the Bioware fan community now only consisting of third-party members and not even members of their own board?
Your calculations are weird.
Well I can't possibly go find everyone, but as a metric of "measuring support" of the retake movement I figured the official Facebook group that everyone links too and twitter account were about as good as I could do. I don't think they are weird I am not hiding any numbers.
If you know of a secret underground where 100,000 more supporters are hiding then you know something I dont.
You just assume that everyone on Facebook and Twitter who joined one specific group on each is the entire RM3 group. Then explain that to the people in the world that don't join english-speaking groups on the internet because they don't speak english. I, as a German, know lots of them.
In order for you to make an actual guess of the majority/minority when it comes to ME3 ending haters/lovers, you'd have to get the numbers of hundreds of thousands of widely different internet forums. You'd have to check chinese, german, french, italian, spanish and whatnot forums just to get a slight guess at the actual numbers.
What you're doing is taking a few thousand people who simply joined a facebook and twitter group under the name "RetakeME3" and call these a vocal minority and make them the entire group of people who disliked the endings. Not everyone voiced their opinions. Not everyone joined for language barriers. RetakeME3 is not all the anti-enders.
You can't get an accurate guess and therefore all discussions about such a topic are doomed to fail. You won't find out about the majority and minority in this matter.
