Sure, torture me with 4 choices I could pick (binary, octal, decimal, and hex)
I have to say hex, it makes for riddles:
How many people can read hex if you and dead people can?
The answer is 57006!

Senary (6 base) wasn't an option in the list but it's the base i use most next to decimal and i prefer it.
All primes except 2 and 3 end in 1 or 5 in a six base number. You can count to 35 on your hands if each hand represent a 6 base digit 0-5.

I use senary numbers to create a new kind of playing cards and new kind of calendar, each which aren't yet related to ti-calculators.

You can count to 1023 if each of your fingers represented a binary digit.

Fingers are jointed at least well enough to have 3 reasonably clearly identifiable positions, so you could count to 59049 if your fingers encoded trits. :)

Why's there no "All Your" option? :-D

What do mean by "All Your"?
At this time, an option that says that would to me make little or no sense.

As in, "All your base are belong to us"

That phrase also makes little sense in this poll.
