Everybody love statistics!

63.7% of people asked love statistics
36.4% didn't understand how statistics worked

Uh oh... 63.7% + 36.4% = 100.1%... is that some 'alien' maths!?

Sorry for asking again, but I’d like you to take a much more comprehensive survey from the Guild of Writers.

It won’t take you much time, it’s completely anonymous (so don’t cheat and answer more than once!), and most importantly it will give a much better understanding of the Community and help improving the game.

If you’re part of a non-English speaking community, and know explorers who have difficulties with English, please help them.

In the new survey, I miss the ability to choose more than one OS, as I could here. So I chose macOS, which I prefer, not Windows 10, which I have mostly been using lately.

Also, it seems to interpret my answer that I have ever used PyPRP as meaning that I prefer PyPRP and am still using PyPRP, which is not true.

Perhaps it was 63.65% and 36.35% which would make 100% but their calculator automatically rounded up to the nearest tenth.

Multiple choice doesn’t allow to conditionally show pages; the alternative was to present e.g. the macOS page to Windows-only users.

As for PyPRP or other tools, the related page should be shown according to the “Which of these tools do you use most frequently” question.

I tried the GoW one but I got stuck on "What do you think is most important in a good URU fan Age? If you are on mobile, you may need to scroll to the right to see all the answer choices."

I have the error "Please don't select more than one response per column"

It's a ranking question, so you rank each option 1-5 exclusively. You can only have one choice per column, so no duplicates of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.

That one tripped me at first too - it wasn't particularly clear that I was expected to rank the five items rather than score each item out of five. I guess I'm more used to seeing that kind of question done using boxes where you simply type the ranking in.

Oh thanks Adam for explaining that! I have done your survey now.

What has fan made ages to do with platforms?

Not much. But since people were going to take time to participate in the survey, it was likely better to ask questions that might also aid Korman's development, as well as provide guidelines to Age builders about what players want to see in fanmade Ages.

It is called "URU Online Survey" so asking that question is fine and I am sure helpful. These questions help us better serve the community and are not used to judge you.

Another caveat for the GoW survey: the question on how difficult it is to install URU on a Mac could have been more specific. I have never had a problem installing MOULa via the Cider wrapper, but I have totally given up on other shards, because of the complete pain it is to install them (or re-install them after client updates that break a given procedure.) This is my experience at least.
