MODERATORS
Unlike some of the other commenters, I had no problem answering the questions, even though I do not always play the same way.
Folks, it's asking what you prefer, not what you always do. If you have no personal preference and just go with the flow, pick the middle option. If you have a preference, pick that even if you sometimes do it your less preferred way for some reason, such as the way the game is designed or how the group interacts.
Most of these questions are not about preferred ways to play but about approval. I'm not sure if the preference is even mentioned anywhere.
I don't remember it using the word "prefer" or the word "approve." My point is that you don't have to always play the same way to give an opinion on which way is better, especially when the questions allow you to pick a middle answer.
