(...) When I click to take the survey, the site says, "Thank you for your willingness to participate, however this study has been completed and is closed." Did the survey really last less that 24 hours? (20 years ago, 16-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

At first I thought they ment a micro-scale theme, like the LEGO factory contest, but then I saw that they also included megablocks, and remembered that Nano was a clone brand. I wanted more nuance to those questions (...) (20 years ago, 16-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

I found the questionnaire to be odd all around--questions unclear, multiple answers in one set, multiple questions asked different ways. This is a badly designed survey, quite honestly. (20 years ago, 16-Apr-05, to lugnet.general)

A few comments on the survey: A couple of questions seemed like trick ones to see if you are really an AFOL - like which themes are part of TLC, and which ranges would you recommend to an 8-year old boy's parents. I hope no-one recommended Clickits (...) (20 years ago, 16-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Good idea, though this poll won't be entirly accurate. I've alerted CCers to the LEGOfan survey: (URL) And not all of them are members of LUGNET, so they can't vote in this poll. Still, it will be interesting to see the results. -- Nathan Wells (20 years ago, 15-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

OK, I filled it out. Comments: 1) Geez. Kind of a pain in the neck. Like 70 questions, many with a dozen or more sub questions. It's like doing your taxes. 2) Seemed to be authored by a European.
