The Otakon Gameshow crew is gearing up for 2008 and we have a blog running at http://otakon-gameshow.blogspot.com/.

Please visit the link and fill out the survey. And let your friends know too. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites

SecondChild 0 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Don't want to ask a "RTFM" question here, but in order to be considered as a contestant you have to go to the pre-gameshow panel, right? Last year there was an error in the schedule, if I remember correctly, I wanted to enter, but couldn't figure out where and when to be. I just want to make sure I know everything I'll have to know to try to enter this year, because my mind is a vault for useless information. =0 Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, the schedule was pretty messed up last year and we weren't able to get the revised information publicized very well. It should go better this year and we'll try to make posts here and on our blog ahead of time so people who are interested will be able to find us. Also, thanks to everyone that's responded and help spread the word about our survey. We've had a pretty good response so far, but we're looking for more. So if you haven't filled the survey out yet, please go ahead. Even answering just a few questions will help us out. It's 12 questions and should only take a few minutes. You can find the current survey at http://www.cjas.org/limesurvey/index.php?sid=15297. And our blog is at http://otakon-gameshow.blogspot.com.

Guest Neklof Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I have already e-mailed Andy about it, but have not yet heard back from him, perhaps I'll try Matt. Thank you for the suggestion. Link to post Share on other sites

confucious 0 Posted March 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 (edited) Hmm. I probably should start a new thread for better visibility. But anyhow. Thanks to everyone that participated in the first survey. We got a little over 100 responses. Our second survey is now up at http://www.cjas.org/limesurvey/index.php?sid=23558 . To encourage people to fill it out, we're going to be running a small raffle. If you want to enter, just enter your email on the first page of the survey and then fill out the rest. After the survey is completed, we'll choose some winners from the responses. Survey #2 is going to run until April 27th. We'll also be posting a few selected results on the blog at http://otakon-gameshow.blogspot.com. We're saving the rest for the gameshow .

Cousinsue 0 Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Thanks for that reminder, I almost forget to get to that one. Next survey you should post on a separate ... er... post. I think you'll get more responses. How are the responses going so far for the second one? Link to post Share on other sites

How are the responses going so far for the second one? I'll start a new post for the third survey announcement. Survey 2 finished off slightly higher than the first. Though I was hoping the lure of swag would get even more. I figure it'll pick up the closer we get to August though. Link to post Share on other sites
