  Blog readers opt for Psiijic Order for new DLC Faction

  Just over 1000 people voted in our poll about adding a brand new faction to Skyrim via a DLC. Here is a chart of the final result

  

  It was a close run thing most of the way, but the Psiijic Order pulled clear of the Thalmor over the last couple of days of polling. The only other faction to get more than 10% of the poll was the Morag Tong, with the remaining options getting various amounts as shown by the graph.

  I confess that I'm a little surprised by this result, as I confidently expected the Thalmor to storm to victory - not from a personal standpoint (I voted for the Morag Tong) but because they were so prevalent in Skyrim that I assumed most people would want to their story fleshed out more. Did anything about this poll surprise you? Let us know in the comments.

  New Quiz : Can you find the 'Odd One Out'?

  This week's Quiz has now gone live, and tests your powers of observation and memory from locations around Skyrim. 

  All you need to do to take the Quiz to click on 'Quiz' on the top menu bar! There are 10 multiple choice questions, and the thread to share your triumphs or epic failures - can be found here

  Outcast of Stendarr is an outcast no longer...

  As you'll see from the Result Box in the right sidebar, the Outcast of Stendarr Build edged out The Witcher in this weeks Character Build Deathmatch. Both of these builds comfortably crossed over the 10 'like' barrier to move up the ranks - whilst the remaining two builds will now be deleted.

  Thanks to Ponty and Mason for these Deathmatch events each Thursday - I think they've been a good addition to the site, and bring attention to the good builds that sometimes can get lost in the sheer deluge of new builds that get added.

  Chat is coming tomorrow....

  Yes, you did read that correctly! Chat is happening tomorrow evening (Saturday November 3rd). After last month's Chat we had a few people comment that Sundays didn't work for people who had to be up early for work or school the next day - not to mention those Antipodean friends who were already on their Monday morning coffee...

  So, as an experiment, this month's Chat will be on Saturday (we can try another day next month if it totally bombs...). Join me in the Skyrim Blog Chat - right here on site - from 8.00-10.00 pm (UK Time) tomorrow evening for fun Elder Scrolls Chat.
