The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
At Gonzo Tech we have a thirst for knowledge. With your help we’d like to push the boundaries of our understanding of the average forum user. How old is the average forum user? Where does he live? How long does he play games for? Oh, and lots of other useless junk… sorry, important sociological information.
It’s simple. We’ve put together a portfolio of questions that get right to the user’s core. You answer the questions honestly (don’t worry, your information will be kept private and only passed on to the highest bidder) and the Gonzo Tech lab bunnies will collate the results and deliver a profile of the typical Special Reserve poster.
Without further ado…

10. If you were to write a questionnaire, what question would you put here?
Why?
Know I originally said results on Monday (with me... I mean Gonzo Tech's lab monkeys intending to be doing that now, Sunday night/Monday morning), but with Sunday being a low traffic day I'm going to leave it open throught Monday to see if we can get some more replies. Every scientist knows the key to a good survey is a wide sample population :)
Hopefully the Monday getting back into the office/school traffic will generate some more replies. Oh, plus the monkeys just nabbed my Planet of the Apes DVD so they'll be getting all excited about that for the next hour or two. May have a rebellion to calm before they'll get back to counting.
