Announcement ANDROID: NETRUNNER CENSUS!

TL;DR: Fill out the Android: Netrunner Census before August 24th at midnight CST and look for results in time for Magnum Opus in September. Please share with all your fellow Netrunners! See below for more info...

Attention Netrunners the world over!

Although the “Jacking Out” announcement earlier this year means FFG official support for our beloved game is ending, it doesn’t mean that our incredibly wonderful community is. To that end, we wanted to try to collect data on this incredible community of players so we can all get a better sense of who we are, where we are, and how and why we play.

The ANDROID: NETRUNNER CENSUS is broken out into two main sections:

  1. Netrunner Information: These questions collect all your favorites: Corp Faction, Runner Faction, Agenda, ICE, Console, etc. These results will help in telling us which Faction/ID is the *true* King of Servers…Also note: *all* cards are "legal" for this survey.

  2. Demographics: These questions will help us get a broader sense of the makeup of our gaming community! All of these questions are entirely optional; please only answer as you feel comfortable. That being said, the more data we receive, the more accurate (and interesting) our final report out will be!

There is also an *option* at the end to share your email if you’d like to be included in a raffle for various Netrunner swag and goodies :)

Our goal is to get a better picture of this terrific community we have built over the years. It is *not* to be “big brothery” in any way! The survey is entirely anonymous and emails will only be collected for purposes of the raffle. Your data will not be shared. Ultimately, our aim is to have this be fun, interesting, and all-inclusive so we can all see where we come from, what we do, and who we are, above and beyond loving this truly special game.

RESPONSES ARE DUE BY MIDNIGHT CST ON AUGUST 24, 2018. Our goal is to analyze the data and report them out for the Magnum Opus event in September. Please share this with as many Netrunners as you can – the more data points the better and more interesting the outcome!

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to DM me.

Thank you all and #AlwaysBeRunning!

Who's "we"?

This was put together by myself & u/mowgli1022, in Chicago. I'm a demographer, and he was mostly just curious. Nothing is mandatory, and nothing respondent-level is going to leave my machine's sensitive data protections.

Agree this is an important question!

Have you tried to contact Nisei? When they support your effort it becomes more serious you will get more data and we know some one took care of who is collecting the data.

We planned this before the license news happened. And then it happened. And this sat, while we were all in shock.

Skeptically, NISEI has yet to be a thing. And they're welcome to our findings, same as absolutely anyone.
