Howdy fellow developers,

We're a small team of game development enthusiasts interesting in making game development easy. If you are developing games as well, we'd like to hear your thoughts on a small set of questions. This should take only 20 seconds and will help us tremendously.

We'd appreciate any feedback.

PS: If this is the wrong sub-forum for this request, let us know and we'll move it

I'm... not sure what you're going for, but this poll doesn't actually seem to be collecting any useful information.

They seem to be fishing for email address, so they can contact a game developer to join their team, or are just phishing for email addresses...

We are actually trying to validating some very fundamental assumptions which is why the poll is very general. The results make sense to us, but are certainly to no extent scientific or anything.

No, we are indeed interested in the results. The email addresses are just used to send out the results for the interested participant. There are most certainly easier ways to get a bunch of email addresses to spam.

Please don't double post.
Also, I do agree, this looks like you're using it as some recruitment aid, since I can't think of any research that would provide meaningful results with these questions..
