The Escapist 2011 Reader Survey

[SnowyGamester]

Not a bad survey, though it had a few issues - A few 'other' tick boxes missing, some repeated questions, etc. Also many times it sent me back to the start page and forgot the answers I added to the last page I was on, though I blame SurveyMonkey for that. Still it made it take probably twice as long to complete as it should have.

 

[Hungry Donner]

Just finished it. It was really buggy there for a bit but then it seemed to clear up. I suspect the survey provider wasn't up for the traffic.

Thank you all for the feedback! The lack of selection box for questions with "Other" as an option has been fixed.

Unfortunately, the random looping appears to be a bug and we have ticketed SurveyMonkey regarding this issue. We are looking to address this as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience

 

[Lorennar]

Needlessly corroborating the kept being sent back to beginning tale of woe. Finally finished though.

 

[putowtin]

done, but I thought I'd say, your give away is the one thing I recommended improving, contests and give aways that are no use to folks outside of the US (or can't be entered outside of the US)

 

[I Have No Idea]

Let's hope I win. I never win any of these types of contests, and I could really used that $100 bucks.

Love to take the survey, but the link to the survey 404's for me.

Happened to me too, just refresh the page once or a few dozen times.

OT: 404 on the first attempt to enter, then it "crashed" (looped back to the beginning, fortunately saving all but 1 page of my answers) about 5 times. Also seems to suspiciously be aimed at US/Canada without stating it as a requirement anywhere.

"If you can't count the amount of times you come here, we <3 you and just put something over 100"

Awsome

 

[Sonicron]

There you go.

Here's to another year of fun on the Escapist. Keep it up, and I'll remain a happy camper.

Christ, I stumbled at "How many hours do you play games a week?"
I mean, I don't record them or anything- I'm not going for a gorram license.

And games I've bought in the last however many months? With Steam as it is, that could be anywhere from 10 to 30.

Still, it's nice to get some outlet for suggestions other than regular forum posts.

 

[staika]

Finished! For the amount of times I come here I put 120 but on reflection I should have put 9001

 

[universaltraveller]

Why was there no tea option, or other in the drinks section!!! Am I just too British for it?

 

[kiwi_poo]

why do they want to know what we drink and what kind of fast food we eat?

this is really creeping me out...

 

[subtlefuge]

I enjoy that there was a somewhat reasonable selection of alcoholic beverages represented. It makes me feel a little less like an alcoholic.

 

[Formica Archonis]

Also seems to suspiciously be aimed at US/Canada without stating it as a requirement anywhere.

As a Canadian who answered the cell phone provider question, allow me to disabuse you of that particular notion!

(Hint: There wasn't a Canadian one in the pile.)

 

[Shoggoth2588]

Survey has been completed! I was glad to do it too, badges and gift cards be damned! This place is like a second home to me after all.

 

[Knight Templar]

That was fun, oddly enough.

 

[Innegativeion]

Happy to have helped, escapist. I love this place.

CAPTCHA: Ceioes 18756... sounds like some kind of secret mech-based military project.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Filled out. Not bad of a survey.

Unfair question about "How many times do I visit the Escapist in a week?"!

It wants a whole number but I visit most of the day every day. So I just put 100

I put 200.

[ModReap]

On the question "did you want something less of on the escapist" or something to that effect, I couldn't find one. Then right after I finished the survey I thought of one, but couldn't edit it, so I'll post it here. When videos ask how old are you, I would like to be able to set a birthdate and have the escapist remember that so I don't have to input it all the time.
