Intelligence and modesty. 
And anyone that can sit and listen to me prattle on about whatever for more than five minutes.

It's not an option, but I actually tend to gravitate towards quiet people. I don't know why- I'm shy (though it usually doesn't show, as I can fake not being shy), and I guess I like other shy people. Maybe it's because they tend to not be utterly obnoxious.
I don't care if someone is confident, unless it gets in the way of something, but I do care if they're stupid, so I far prefer intelligent people. Or at least people who can understand when I'm talking about when I start rambling on about obscure sciencey/historical things and won't look at me like I've suddenly turned into a forty-foot tall purple frog with tentacles and eighteen eyes.

Sweet wins hands down. ... Okay. Wins by barely edging out funny, intelligent and confident. Hmm... Sounds like the person I'm in love with now.

Funny, and loud-social people. I love it!
I don't get along with intelligent people, they think I'm stupid.

With the exception of jerks I've probably gravitated towards at least one person from each category. I tend to gravitate towards eccentric people with some attribute of their personality that is quite extreme (whether it be introversion, religion, confidence, etc).

confident, funny, and intelligent do it for me.

Awww... I'm the only person who voted attractive.

I like the funny people. Ones that can sit around and be amused by the most stupid things. My brothers are a bit like that, and we have the lamest inside jokes you could imagine. I tend to befriend people younger than me too. Im 10 days from 20, and two of my best friends are 3 and 4 years younger.

I don't know, to be honest. Im so unfocused when it comes to people, that sounds weird--what I mean is I just tend to talk to everyone and anything that will talk back.

I just saw the poll resluts and literally started gasping for breath. I think I'm going to have a panic attack if I find one more thing different about PPT. 
On-topic now. Is the question asking what kind of people I find myself fancying? I think the most accurate option is "funny". Which really makes sense. I love funny stuff.
If the question is asking what kind of people I like in general (including platonically, not just crushily), then I'll say the same. I like it when I can laugh with someone. Randomness + inside jokes = fun times. I could never really be close friends with someone who doesn't appreciate randomness.

No geek?
Well, funny, usually. But a lot of jerks too. Maybe a mix on intelligence in there too.
Though my best friend is a jerk... and a lot of my friends in high school were jerks too. They're the tolerable kind of jerk, though, and I don't really have a problem with that, but they were so absolutely hilarious that I was often laughing myself to tears around them. Not that I talk that much anyway. I only talk when I have that's not pointless to say. At least people listen when they aren't used to you going on and on about nothing on a daily basis.
Geek includes every single one of them, though, definitely geeks.

A mix of personalities, really. I'd say I have three 'groups' of friends, one are pretty intelligent and geeky, and that's who I talk to in lessons, alongside another who are... I don't know really. A couple are quite shy, however, have the potential to be hilarious. I also talk to them (one of them chose exactly the same options as me, by coincidence, hehe, so in everything but Maths and English, we're in the same set) in lessons, and walk to and from school (if I'm ever on time, that is) with them. I kind of fell out of contact with them after moving to senior school, but somehow, I rejoined them.
The final group of friends are really funny, but not as intelligent (I have no lessons with any of them), and I'm more likely to do things outside of school with them. They are also who I talk to at break and lunch. Of course, the people inside these groups all possess a variety of different qualities, and I can enjoy each of them, well, minus a few, but hehe, you have to put up with some people I guess. So uh, I don't think I could classify my friends under one heading, and therefore chose other.

Geek.
But form this list, it'd be funny.
Oh, and the poll results are different, and IT ANNOYS ME.

Other. It's usually a combination of things. Although an intelligent, funny, attractive, rich man would just be heaven!

My friends are generally funny and smart, if a bit shy at first. I have a knack for finding the most interesting person in the room sitting off to the side, alone--even if they're normally the life of the party. Most of them have an obsessive interest in something; lately it's mostly cartoons, college basketball, or horses.
Yeah, we're geeks. That's why I love us.
