Help needed
« on: July 30, 2015, 12:38:37 PM »
I need some help from the RPG community. I'm writing a paper on religion and Tabletop Role-Playing Games and I'm trying to collect data on themes players and GMs tend to associate with the various genres of RPGs. If you would be willing to help me out, please click the link below to get to the survey I've created for this purpose.

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/TTRPGs-2015

If you would like the survey results once they're compiled, I'd be happy to provide those to you; just send an email to ttrpgs.2015@gmail.com and I'll forward you the results once I have them.

Thanks,

--John Dulle

There was some interesting data there and I was surprised by some of the replies in the data set.

The "creativity" numbers for various genres was surprising "Fantasy" blew everything else away.
Also "Evil" and "Hell" were higher for "Fantasy" then they were or "Horror"
