Yeah Hartsblade... neither can I... but these things take time, which is in short supply.
yes we have worked out how to make sure their is a turnstile on the survey...
you just have to make sure that whomever you send to the site fills in your name correctly before doing the survey, persons filling it in can also choose to just leave that field blank and only put in thier details rather than the 'headhunters' first.

SB: Make the survey page take an argument. That argument will be the name of the person who referred the surveyee to that site. For example, I would then send people the link "www.thesurvey.com/survey.php?name=biggles", and my name would go down on the form that they fill in. Also make the name uneditable when using this method.

I asked SB if it was all right to take a look at the questions in his questionnaire. This is the revised questionaire that I came up with. SB is still working on the final, so I'm not sure what questions will be used. He suggested I post the questions I came up with here and get everyones opinions, let me know what you think.

[i]I figured it would be good to have this info also[/i]
3) Of the PC games you have purchased in the last year please list them by genre (Indicated the number purchased in each category)
___ First Person Shooter (Quake, Red Faction)

[i]I combined the number of games purchased into this question, helping to break the games purchased down by genre.[/i]
4) Of the following genres please list your three favorites (Select Three)

[i]I structured this question so it would be easy to set up on a web site.

With full packaging and documentation , possibly with extras such as collector’s pins

With a simple jewel case and minimal documentation
[i]I changed this question to take out the money part. It’s been my experience if you ask any questions concerning money you will skew your answers. If you ask a question on a survey that gives a more expensive choice Vs a cheaper choice, many people will go for the cheaper choice, where as the reality is, that customer may purchase the more expensive items due to things like name brand, and packaging.[/i]

3) Turn based strategy: Space Empires IV
8) A new series with a different style from previous games. [i]wording, ugh. In other words, ITF without the license. The B5 thing would turn certain people off to an otherwise wonderful game, but we need not collect [u]that[/u] data.[/i]

Ah, looks like the questionnaire matures [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img].
I haven't too much time. But one thing would be interesting: Could we include a question about the mods?
With questions including:
- Have you played a so-called B5 'mod' (modification) of any game? Which one?
- Why did you play it? (I like the game, I like B5, I like to play such a game in the B5 universe,...)
- Did the mod(s) you played satisfy your desire to play such a B5 game? (Yes, No-still would love to play a unique B5 game, No-there could never ne enough B5 games)
You surely find other questions. These are just illustrations for the "mod question idea".

have a look... post comments here, but please, please o please, dont waste your time actually filling it in. There is nowhere for the data to go yet and there wont be till the questions and the actual survey is formalised.
The first page you go to from that link will be a pop up which filters for Firstones filling in the survey by proxy and genuine 'punters'.
We'll try and make sure that your Firstones ID is your survey ID. Its a question of groking them off the server ( Striker TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS ), or pre-registering all 2500+ of you.. which... I dont really want to do... this is a technical issue which we will have to resolve shortly.
Suffice to say that you will not be forgotten and you will get the goodies you earn. The benchmarks for those goodies are still under review. I think it best if we wait and see just how well the collection goes. Perhaps only the top 50 get the 'gold goodies', followed by the 51 to 100 placegetters get the 'silver goodies', and the 101 to 150 get the 'bronze goodies'.
ok guys... tell me what you think...

If the first page is how you plan on tracking FirstOnes (which is fine as long as the FirstOne is entering the data), how will you track data entered by someone that is sent to the site by a FirstOne (short of me giving that person my ID and password)? Maybe having a "Referred by:" box would help.

I know you want to avoid having all of us register, but if we do register, then you could assign each of us a unique reference number that we could give to people to enter on the form when we refer them. Something like..
"Hey Joe,
Go over to "www.ITFsurvey.com" and check out the survey. Make sure you enter the this refered by code...1234.
Thanks,
me"
Then on the form...
"If you were refered to this page by someone please enter the reference code here________"
What do you think?

SB, Just a note, last time I checked Alpha Centuri wasn't really a beat'em up game, unless you guys know something I don't. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif[/img]
"Syd Meyers Alpha Centuari" = Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. And definetly NOT beat'em up.
Answering to some questions seems to cancel previous answers. It happen with those questions which have point answer marks (at least "Where do you prefer to purchase your games", "Whom do you prefer to purchase your games from", "How familiar are you with Babylon 5").
Some of the questions have only one answer so clicking on a second just changes your answer.
EDIT: Nevermind. I see what you mean, clicking the answer in one question removes the answer in another, guess I should check things out before I open my big mouth [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/eek.gif[/img]

I like Hartsblades Idea... mind you the onus will be on YOU to make sure that if you do refer people to the site that they get that code right... or you will get nothing but the fuzzy glow of karma rather than any trick goodies from the new company.
Shall we adopt the 'reference code' idea ?

Answering to some questions seems to cancel previous answers. It happen with those questions which have point answer marks (at least "Where do you prefer to purchase your games", "Whom do you prefer to purchase your games from", "How familiar are you with Babylon 5").
EDIT: Nevermind. I see what you mean, clicking the answer in one question removes the answer in another, guess I should check things out before I open my big mouth [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/eek.gif[/img]

I like Hartsblades Idea... mind you the onus will be on YOU to make sure that if you do refer people to the site that they get that code right... or you will get nothing but the fuzzy glow of karma rather than any trick goodies from the new company.
Shall we adopt the 'reference code' idea ?
