Research for My Book

Post by Josiah »

As previously mentioned, I'm writing a book partially based on the research I did for my master's thesis. To expand on my thesis research, I'm conducting a second survey. This one is about how stories affect (or don't affect) which games you buy. The survey is pretty short (takes about five minutes or less) and totally annoymous. It asks for your name and e-mail when you sign up, but that information is stored in a seperate database, can't be tied with your answers, and is not used in any way other than to to prevent people from taking the survey multiple times. I'd really appreciate it if you guys could take the survey and pass it on to your game playing friends and family members as well.

Took the survey myself, then sent it to two of my friends. :3

And Josiah, you just had to make that super hard to answer. I couldn't decide what to put for half the questions ;_;

Thanks a lot guys! And yeah, I totally realize that some of those questions can be hard to answer. I had a tough time with some of them myself...

Thanks! I've passed the halfway mark (in terms of the minimum amount of responses I want to get), but that still leaves a decent amount to go.

Might I say, Josiah, I enjoyed taking that survey. I can't wait to see your masterpiece later. Good luck in your further research! :)
