The mailing list raffle is an incentive to complete the form. I personally stake 2.5 Bil worth of: SKINs and 200 PLEX, Gila, Cynabal, Covetor. This reward pool can increase if people donate, but that’s not necessary for me. I would like to host some events at some point, so this could be a starting off point for that too.
The survey is to analyze and then report on player activities (probably on this forum and reddit).
The questions are focused on the matrix [ Fun x ISK x TimeInvestment] and player motivation within that matrix to engage in all the game’s activities.
I’m also building a spreadsheet alongside this for my own use, so that I can optimize my own activities in the game, but people will have access to the data to make their own spreadsheets or conclusions.
The in-game mailing list does not allow you to see who’s in it. But if I send a mail, everyone who joined it will be able to see the instructions. The plan is to instruct people to go to a specific station and trade me a specific low-cost item as password so I can pick a reward with RNG.
You will need to manually look at some of the ISK/hr values given. Many people did enter triple-digits and obviously meant like “120 million ISK/hr”, not “120 ISK/hr”.
Due to low turnout & trolls, or my own naivety, whatever, I’m closing this survey and the associated offer. There’s not enough data to form any reasonable conclusions.
Whoever joined the mailing list will get a nice gift, and that’s it.
