2 Bit Productions are a new game writing team, with interests in developing
strategy war games. Before we commit time and effort into producing new
games we would like to know if this is worth doing. If you would spend a
few minutes to complete this survey, we would appreciate it.

1) Do you play strategy games? Y/N

2 Bit Productions are interested in producing a net based Play-By-Mail
(PBM) strategy war game. In the PBM system, players participate in the game
by sending game orders to a moderator, who coordinates the players actions
and game plot development. The results of each turn are then sent to the
players who then act on this information to produce their next turn. We
would like to know if there is any interest in this project and what
features players would like to see.

2) Do you have your own internet account? Y/N

3) If not, do you plan to get your own account? Y/N

    your most liked PBM game in mind)

4.2) How much did the game cost per turn?

4.3) For how many turns did you play?

5) Are you interested in playing a net-based PBM game? Y/N
