NetHack-De

NetHack Poll 2009

The intention of this poll is to gather some information about NetHack players, both currently active and past players for helping us variants developers for design decisions and to get a small insight into the NetHack community as a whole.

Even if you no longer play NetHack regularly, please take part in this poll. Most questions make sense also for former players and one question asks explicitly why you no longer play NetHack.

The results of the poll have not yet all been classified. As long as this page is up, you can still submit your entry.

Please spread the word about this poll to other NetHack playing people you know.
