Thanks for your concern, whatever online survey tool is used, people can always find ways to take them multiple times if they are motivated enough. Be it creating more usernames or using VPN’s. We have made it compulsory to include your hunter name now and we will run a query against out database at the end of the survey and delete all invalid responses. Not taking the survey does not actually help anything and participating in the survey helps to ensure the correct information gets to the Devs. We already have a great idea what the community wants and this survey is used more to help confirm we are on the correct path and perhaps we get some good ideas that we might have overlooked. This survey format was used this year for the COTW survey and had great results. It would take lots of dedicated people to shift the results significantly. It is also worth noting that in some parts of the survey, we are doing a little bit of ‘Fishing’ ourselves and trying to feel out the community with other ideas, like any good company would be doing. Just because they are in there, doesn’t mean they will happen.

If we have any doubts with the results, we can review the way the surveys are done in the future and proceed from there.

Have a good weekend all,

TK

I'm not a computer person, so this may be the wrong question. EW, if you can mine all of that data at the end of the survey, why can't you publish (say for 48 hours or some other time determined) the results for ALL participants in holiday and other special events, instead of just the top 100? The argument that no one will see it is invalid, IF you made the announcement of such a list in the original post about the event.

Did the survey. Haven't seen Africa on the list in the surveys for quite some time now. Hopefully you folks have a plan for it sometime soon. COTW would do good with an African reserve as well. But ya, DO NOT waste time with fishing. There's other games out there for that. I want theHunter to stay theHunter.

Did the survey. Lots of personal questions at the beginning. Hope EW is not just mining demographics for sale. The only complaint I have about the questions. Some could only accept one answer, where more than one choice was relevant.

Thanks for the feedback Stan. I will go and have a look at the questions again. Some are designed so we get your most desired option and some have three choices. All the information we gather is exclusively for our use and we will not release individuals information.

Any chance you will release the overall results? I think it would be interesting for us all to catch a glimpse at the pulse of the community.
