I chose Other because I don't believe in just baptizing infants or just baptizing believers.
I like Bill Shishko's term,
oikobaptism, that is, baptizing professing adults and their households. And although I'd prefer sprinkling or pouring, I think either of those is fine, and acknowledge the validity of immersions.
