Hello. I wish to make a small survey of little things, just trivia
really, about POV users.
The questions are:
1) What is your full name?
2) Where are you from? (country)
3) Are you left, or right-handed?
4) What is your favorite food?
5) What language(s) do you speak?
6) What religion do you belong to?
7) Do you have pets? What kind?
8) What is your hair color?
9) What color are your eyes?
10) What is your IQ?
I know some of these are rather personal questions, respond only to
those you feel comfortable with. Your answers will, of course, remain
strictly confidential. I will, after a 2 week period, provide a sheet
showing the most common name, location, handedness, food liking,
language, religion, pet, hair and eye color... so we can composite a
better idea of the 'average' POV user. (=
To get your IQ, unless you already have it on hand, I suggest you go to
http://www.iqtest.com, like I did. (=
The answers are to be sent to my e-mail address (so you don't have to
fiddle with forms), as in the following example:
Subject:
Trivia Survey
Message body:
1) Anthony Lawrence Bennett Ureta
2) Panama, Republic of Panama
3) Left-handed
4) Filet mignon
5) English, spanish, and little bit of japanese
6) Roman Catholic
7) Yes. Two chihuahua dogs.
8) Black
9) Dark-brown
10) 142
Here is the e-mail to send your replys to: ben### [at] panama phoenixnet
Have a nice day. (=

Yes. Somebody already has. You have nothing to worry about. I'm not going to
tell anybody what your favorite food is or what color your hair is. Yeeesh!

I can see why you liked it. I got a superhuman score with this one - and
that being slightly drunk and tired. So drool, lowly mortals!
Seriously, I'm flattered - but I really doubt the validity of this
particular score. And I am generally sceptical about such IQ tests.
Anyway, no offense but I consider this survey somewhat poorly constructed -
at least for me. No religion, no pets, I eat whatever whenever - and who
cares if my eyes are brown or blue? (They're blue)
And how would you like to find ot you're a below-average POVer? :)

Hahah, either the test isn't reliable or I'm a god (in which case I'll

If it said 42 three times, then it probably means that your IQ is the answer
to *the* quesion!
42!

You find it strange that other people find it strange that you start a very
unprofessional survey about *very* private matters (you ask about "religion"
and "IQ" man!) ???
Why don't you ask for their credit card numbers too, just to see which card
POVers prefer? Or their e-mail addresses (you could even sell those...).
(Actually it is kind of interesting how it seems acceptable to ask people
about their IQ and religion, but that asking for a credit-card number or
e-mail address would be considered rude :-)
Johannes.
BTW: Don't you think that the question for the IQ is redundant? I mean,
everybody who seriously answers this review kind of defines his IQ without
even answering to that question! ;c) (now there *I* couldn't resist...)

You're all being a little hard on TonyB I think. Who's to say what
should be asked in a survey (albeit, I have to agree, it's unusual).
Lance Birch asked for ages and that is usually taboo though most
everyone didn't hesitate to fill his out.
Someone asked me about adding racial demographics to my POV World Map. I
politely turned down the suggestion since that would essentially mean
everyone would need to resubmit the form. I was curious about this
aspect long ago myself while going to AOL chats, yet I never thought it
prudent to ask and I seldom think of it enough to have tried including
the question in my web page form for the map. Heck, it took me a while
to decide on the IMP member distinction (none visible even now), and was
kind of cornered on that one when another similar map was known to
exist.
I live in an area that's pretty mixed culture-wise or whatever you might
call it and there's plenty of chance POV-Ray users might be also. Guess
we'll never know.
Funny thing is I got the feeling Tony was kind of asking this sort of
thing indirectly with the eye and hair color thing, wouldn't come close
to the right answer through assumptions such as this.
Anyway, call me ridiculous for defending this "new survey" a little, but
hey, I have an IQ of 143 according to that test. I couldn't be too
ridiculous, now could I ?:)

Maybe people should have taken a closer look at this paragraph. You can
tell you strike a chord immediately if your after such personal
information, most everyone seems to have been blinded by the questions

I'd like to voice my opinion on this one...
First, I refuse to participate in such a personal and irrelevant survey.
What does this have to do with POV-Ray anyway?
Who do you think you are asking questions about someone's
religion/country/language? Don't you think some people would be a little
offended by such personal questions being posed? (and letting someone
choose what they want to answer surely can be of no statistical use anyway)
>I know some of these are rather personal questions, respond only to
>those you feel comfortable with. Your answers will, of course, remain
>strictly confidential. I will, after a 2 week period, provide a sheet
Confidential, and yet posted? That's a paradox if ever I heard one... kinda
like saying, "after you submit, your information will be encrypted with a
public key"
I suggest that you look back at my survey for a little direction, and while
I don't mean to sound like some kind of expert on this kind of stuff, I do
think that you'll find the subject matter of the survey I ran a little more
closely tied to POV-Ray.
I also suggest that if you want to run a survey about something not tied (or
pseudo-tied) to POV-Ray, then you should place it on a separate website,
rather than on this server (like I have done with my "POV Survey", "MAX
Survey", "Fun Survey" and "3D/2D Graphics IQ Test").
And about the IQ Test, I don't think that website is very accurate... or if
it is, I'm a 16-year-old genius (take your pick).

The test is definitely flawed and inaccurate. While flattering
it is by no means even close to reality. Sorry Lance you are still
"just" a 16 year old boy er I mean young man.

42 is the answer to life the universe and everything.
It's only fitting that a big computer somewhere would come up
with this answer to describe soemone who knows all.

I don't see why some people get all offended by this. If you don't want
to answer some questions, then don't. And don't make a big stink about
it either. There are plenty of posts on this newsgroup that don't deal
with pov. I just went through 33 of them in the images newsgroup. If
you would have read the post completely he did not intend you to reply
on the newsgroup, he left an email address. And yes that IQ test was a
little off. I should go join Mensa with that IQ.

But I still don't see the logic in such a survey... if he allows you to
answer the ones you want to (yes of course they're to his email address!!!)
then I really don't see the statistical value in this...

The point is, that a survey where you can leave out any question that you
don't like is like a verbal contract: Not worth the paper it is written on.

TonyB can ask anything he likes in as many surveys as he as Bandwidth to
upload for all I care. He just has to ask himself how high the probability
is for people answering. And better don't get all offended when people make
fun of silly surveys.
Maybe I'm gonna start one of my own? Yes! Here it comes:
(Some questions are a bit personal but for statistical reasons you have to
answer them anyway, otherwise terrible things will happen...)
1) Have you ever posted a survey of any kind?
[ ] not over my dead uncle's dog's flee-ridden body!
[ ] it's my usual pastime
2) Have you ever cursed when POV quite parsing with a syntax error?
[ ] not me! O:-)
[ ] only in a language nobody else understands
[ ] yes, but I limited myself to ugly POV-Script terms
3) Have you ever peed in the shower?
[ ] no sir!
[ ] only if i'm alone
[ ] is there another way?
Please mail your answers within 23 minutes (otherwise, I repeat: terrible
things!) to the following address ire### [at] dontcare.
Thanks for your participation!
Johannes.

Seeing as I didn't email (must have missed that part) the other I'll do
the same here.

[X] none of the above (other answers are no and yes, so this is
maybe)

The cynic in me pondered whether high scores might well increase the chances
of an individual parting with $9.99 at the end of the test?
Though, perhaps we are all geniuses after all.
