Not sure how representative that GamePressure article is (it's a Polish owned site with a rather Yennefer biased editor, and majority of the voters claims to have read the books), but if I read the numbers right, it's interesting that slightly more people choose Triss out of those who read the books after the games compared to those who didn't read the books at all. That's unexpected.

Either something's wrong with the chart (e.g. the red/green games only group should be swapped, then it'd be more consistent with what I've seen on other sites, and also the choice of colours would make more sense with the warmer/reddish one always representing Triss), or it actually shows the damage done by all the hate spreading and denigration of "Triss fans" by the likes of "TomasDastan". It's obvious that the books first group would prefer Yennefer (even then it's actually one of the less unbalanced choices in the game), but why would reading the books after the games vs. never reading them push the percentage towards Triss? Either the reader then realises that the characters aren't exactly like they were told on the internet, or non-book reading Triss fans participated less because they're usually the target of ridicule on forums and often end up avoiding online activity.

Or maybe it's the "games first, then books" group that was swapped with "games only", in that case the overwhelming majority on the poll would be book readers. Perhaps odd, but it's a Polish site after all. Or something else was mixed up, who knows, the numbers just look fishy because they show a trend I haven't seen yet elsewhere.
