Update: I've now ascertained a consensus of my local players. The outcome was interesting.

There's a clear favorite: Mage: The Ascension. No one ranked it below 3, and it was two people's first choice. There's a clear unfavorite: GURPS Space, with the realistic future Mars. No one ranked it above 3, and it was two people's last choice. GURPS Supers, Sorcerer, and (a continuation of) GURPS Mars were all grouped in the middle, with a wider range of rankings, and each was one person's first choice. The sum of rankings was respectively 10, 20, 15, 16, and 14, with no one giving an X to any campaign.

So it's going to be Mage. Set in London, in 1905, and the players get to decide if they'd rather play Traditions or Technocracy.

That's very different from the ratings here, where GURPS Mars was the top choice, followed by GURPS Space, and where we had a couple of people giving GURPS Supers an outright pass. Of course, those differences are precisely why I hand out prospectuses!
