And as far as the polls go, it could be put on the registration sheet and made manditory that way we actually get mroe imput for the LANs.

You wont a real response. If you make it mandatory you will get garbage responses. The ones that really care are the ones what will leave feedback weather its mandatory or not. If you would like me to look over the questions i’d be happy to. I piratically have a minor in conducting public surveys. The hardest part is phrasing them in a non bias manner. If you do a bubble poll, the only real analytical type feedback is using a 4point forced choice likert scale. However bubble polls, are alsways subject to random guessing. I would recommend the open ended type questions. Just shoot me a PM if you want.

Mandatory won’t work people want to be able to have choice and not feel obligated by things. It makes something more enjoyable when you don’t HAVE to do it. I would hand them out as people are leaving, this way you can ask “what do we need to do differently” rather than “what do you want done.” You are much more likely to get answers that aren’t tailored to individual players this way. You’ll get more of the same responses over and over if there was a problem that was really significant.

kuros makes valid points. only thing i would say is to not do them at the end. at the end its alsways panic and kayos from people packing up and stuff. I’d say do them 1/2way through, hand them out when people arnt occupied by something else. When they have time on their hands they will typically full them out respectfully.
