We're conducting a demographics survey in my intro to video game design course. I'd greatly appreciate if you could take this survey for me:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/VZWJW3B
Thanks!
Done! It's only 60 seconds folks, so get in there an help a brother out. :)
Done! One thing though, there is no option for "I mostly/only play free games" in the question about when/how you buy games.
Done. I was about to put $0 for annual expenditure on games but then recalled paying some amount for the recent AGS bake sale. I vaguely remember it was around $5 or something. I'm ashamed I didn't pay more. :-[

That honestly hadn't occurred to me. I tried to make the survey as broad as possible, while still geared toward "gamers". I'll make note of the feedback to the class as well.
I greatly appreciate the feedback from everyone. We have somewhat of a competition going in the class, so every response is appreciated! :=
Done! :smiley:
Done! :smiley:
When asked: "When are you most likely to buy a game?", I proudly answered: "Never/When someone else buys it for me" :=
Done! :)
Done.
Done :grin:
Done Monkey's Survey Monkey Survey..thing
Interestingly I can tell right away that i've almost completely moved to digital downloads rather than retail copies purely for convenience.
Done :grin::-D
Done. Do you want us to share it on Facebook and stuff for more results?
Lol at over $9000.
Done.
81+ hours!??!?!!?!? 8-0

I do. I play games 12 hours a day. ;)
Taken the survey. (nod)
Done! ~10 hours a week, wish it was 50+.
Done.
I only wish some of the answers could have been higher!

If you don't mind, that would be awesome!

Which questions, specifically? Hours spent playing? Because I doubt anyone actually spends over $9000 every year on gaming. :P
Also, if you're interested you can view the responses from the first 100 people surveyed* (sorry, I can't afford a premium account!): here (https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-TK76CGYL/).
*But still, for the purposes of the class, the more people that actually
take the survey, the better.
Only 23% do physical sports? C'mon guys, get off that couch and do something ;)
Getting a soda from the fridge is doing something. :tongue:
By the way monkey, is that design course you're taking focused on adventure games specifically?
Not to spoil the fun, but if it isn't, you should probably get as many non-AGS people as you can to take the survey and balance out the results a bit. Because with adventure games in the lead like that, I think you're hardly getting a very representative picture at the moment. ;-D

But I thought everyone's clocks stopped in 1991...8-0

No, no, I meant
my answers rather than the available options, as in I wish I could spend more time and money on games! :-D
I noticed that my "other" answers were cut, for some reason.
Adeel, I don't believe you were in the first 100 responses. SurveyMonkey only displays those results on my free account. The overall number is still shown though, so that's what our class will take into account this afternoon.
I know posting the survey here may have skewed my results, but I'll see how it ranks up against others as well, which should give us an idea of how extreme the bias is.

Fair enough.
Good luck!

That's why I choose not to reply that question, since none of the options applied...
I do wonder that you gave the option of 0$ in the previous question, but overlook that possibly in the next question. ;)
Hi Monkey_05_06.
All done.
Phew! That was hard.;)
Yours.
Jay.

I understand it could be useful to have a distinction for "I only play free games", but the option of "[I
] Never [buy games]" is hardly overlooking spending $0/yr. ;)
Also, seems I misunderstood the teacher on when we are checking the results. That will be on this coming Tuesday, so if you haven't taken it yet please do! :)
