The 2014 Community Questionnaire...
Slipwater
Member Posts: 3,660
Hi folks,
As 2014 eases into its final quarter I thought it would be interesting to get a few community opinions and perhaps to get some of you thinking a little outside the box.
So, with that in mind here's a little ten minute diversion. The questions are generally quite simple, and the answers won't hurt. There are a few non-poker related ones just for giggles, but it's er... mostly on point.
I wanted to ask for responses via PM but now fear that certain corners of the community will take that to mean I wish to market said secret replies and somehow turn this little moment of fun into something more lucrative.
So... post away!
