Shouldn't you be all for counting attempts? After all, how do you define "intact"? :trollface:
Wait, does a FH count for 3? I voted 6, but a fully reuse able FH I think it's 8-9.
It is ridiculous that we'd count a Falcon Heavy launch with a mass simulator, but at least it'd be an orbital flight.
I agree with @kaputnik's definition of "intact". Basically, if it stays standing on four feet long enough to hook the crane up, it's intact.
I voted 4, but only voted for 10 launches this year, so I'm probably on the optimistic side in this poll. I think they'll continue having some issues with ASDS landings, but wouldn't be surprised (and would be very happy) if they got at least one successful ASDS landing before the end of the year.

SpaceX has shown that they hit very close to center of the LZ if everything works well.
