Each questionnaire has two considerations: format and appropriate formalised responses; and technical construction (not mentioned here, but if ideas are forthcoming...).
Questionnaire 1: 40k Demographics
An attempt to try and find out basic demographic information about 40k players, what games they play, what their interests are (armies, etc.), etc.
Need to (not in order):
Potential Catagories
Basic categories and example information/question requests include:
BL Novel Reviews[/u][/size]
Need to be done: as above.
Potential Categories
Okay, I've run out for now.
One obvious point is that of artbooks... they would require a separate questionnaire.
So, any thoughts on this one...? <not holding breath! >
