VERY cool survey there Jake/Richard!  It will be interesting to see what
impact this has on the selection of parts available at PaB.

On a side note.  Is anyone at Lego working on a resource that will present
the current PaB selections to a wider market?  It would be most helpful if
there were somewhere that had a reasonably updated listing of the elements
available at the various stores.  This would allow a much wider group of
customers to take advantage of this great concept.  Personally the closest
PaB to me is over 8 hours away.  This means that the only way to take
advantage is ordering over the phone.  With the quantity of different parts,
it just isn't practical to get an accurate idea of what you might be missing
during a phone call.

All,

Richard and I (mostly Richard, thanks Richard!) have been working on a new
survey tool to get a better handle on the AFOL part desires. We have been
working on a super top secret project - we'll call it Project X -  for • many
months now, and it's just about ready for our pilot launch. But as part of • this
project, we would like to have your feedback on what parts you would most • like
to see in bulk form. I wish I could tell you more, but trust me, you'll • love the
outcome. Don't forget that because you don't hear anything from us in a • while,
doesn't mean we aren't working on terrific stuff!

The hope of this project is to be able to quickly and clearly generate a • Top 20
list of what specific parts in what specific colors the AFOL community as • a
whole would like to see us produce.

I can't promise that we'll be able to pull off every part request, but we • will
be listening and factoring your opinions into Project X.

You can fill out the survey (just once per AFOL!) at:

<http://www.pabtrak.com/survey/>

The Bulk Bricks survey allows you to choose up to 20 items each with up to • 10
colors. You can only take the survey once per AFOL, so choose wisely! (But • don't
worry.Richard's super duper "Parts Shopping Cart" allows you to change and
modify your selection for days)

Please note that we have included only the current color selection in this
survey. Richard has been kind enough to agree to a second version of the • survey
that is based only on the new and old colors so that we can put a bit more
quantitative data to that discussion about what parts should/could be • "locked".

Richard has also been kind enough to open up a special forum on BrikTrak • to
report bugs (only bug reporting, please). You can find it here:

<http://www.briktrak.com/forums/display_forum_topics.asp?ForumID=29>

Again, sorry I can't reveal more than this, but sometimes that's just how • it
works. I figured it's better to get you involved earlier in the process • even if
I can't share the details with you!

Jake
