Anyone who has the time to fill it out! It's a two-part survey on character design, with the second part optional. The purpose is gathering information to research notable successes and failures in character design, and find patterns between them. I'm working with a professor at my college who has a [url=http://friendlymedia.sbrl.rpi.edu/bettergamecharacters/]book[/url] and [url=http://bettergamecharacters.blogspot.com/]blog[/url] on the subject. The survey is found here: [url]http://128.113.106.142/BGCWelcome.htm[/url] Thanks very much to everyone who contributes their responses! We appreciate it =) (Just to forewarn you, the survey isn't long, but the questions are pretty open-ended, so it may or may not take a long time to get through. I've heard response times range anywhere from 20 minutes to a number of hours.)

I cannot connect. Is there a link that isn't made up of an IP address?

Unfortunately, the server it's hosted on went down on a power outage so it's not available atm. :( According to the National Grid power should hopefully be restored by midnight. Thanks for your interest!! I'll repost in this topic when it's back up and running.

The survey is great. By just answering that, I was able to learn something. :) I'll share survey to our university's Game Development Society. :)

That'd be awesome, thank you so much! And thanks for the positive feedback, always glad to hear it :) (Yup, survey's back online if you couldn't tell.. hehe)

Thanks. I love taking surveys. It's pretty late here, so I don't think I could be able to finish it in one session without falling asleep. :D I'll do it tomorrow.

Haha, I own a book with the same character on its cover as the one on the first page there. Called "Better characters by design" or something like that.

Hehe. The professor who wrote that is the professor I'm researching with! Hence the same design :D How'd ya like the book?
