[HOLO] It's over: Post-game survey

[miss_seph]

Yeah. I'm ranting in chat about this now. I mean, wtf - don't we get to see erik and eliza arrested? What happened to george? did he escape? And the technology - did it go anywhere?

AND WHAT - if anything - did it have to do with Visual Studio?!?! Is this even FOR visual studio?

*sigh* I have some strong feelings that will be politely expressed in this survey. I hope we get to do a PM chat...

[Nighthawk]

I took the survey. Yes, the emphasis is heavily on Visual Studio and asks me questions like "did you run out and buy VS?"

Yeah, an ARG's gonna make me buy a thousand dollar piece of software...
(I actually do own VS, but still)

At the end of the survey, if you provide your email, they say we will be notified of a post-game chat. So I'm guessing there will eventually be a more direct means of expressing your dismay.

hey at least now we know what to do with the 32 digit password from the holomove applicant survey

[miss_seph]

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

Free Tshirt too!

Oh I liked the question:

God, this is so friggin lame.

What a weak ending. I'm really disappointed in soemthign that had such great potential

When we did our online job application, there were some questions about those software products. The same question appeared on the post game survey. I'm sure they use the 32-bit key to compare the answers "pre" and "post" game.

Just for the record, I just received yet another identical Email from the Holomove crew.

I wonder what mail service provider they're using...

Any one else think the survey thing was kinda....cheesy? :/ I tried to be nice in the survey, cause encouraging args is YAY, but eh...

And I didn't get any email. Apparently they took the list from the Holomove job apps, the most pointless part of the game, rather than e.g. RK's mailing list.

ETA: What I forgot to mention is that without the GUID, the link doesn't work. Since the site is a general market research site, and they ask for your 32-character code from the application, I think it's to identify which survey on that site rather than who you are. Would someone be able to post a link with the ID (or just quote the survey, I'm not fussed about taking it)?

I entered in password and email and it said they would like to invite me back for a longer discussion with the first XX (i forget) people to sign up get a holomove t-shirt.

Yes, it has increased my awareness with MS VS, no I'm not going to buy it. It could be anyone who made a similar ARG. Its pretty cool for the MS VS people to run it.
