EDIT: Final participant count for current survey: 27 of 30. Thanks to everyone who took part.

Not at all empirical. Also rambly. )

Gracious, I shouldn't ever hope for anybody to truly understand how a fandom works! What a scary notion. I was very interested in participating in your survey when it was first launched, but I haven't had a good internet connection in SO LONG. Uuuugh. So many internet dramas. So I'm sorry :) I will try to get involved again, if I find out how!

When I studied fandom, I studied just one particular community, and was able to post questions there. Also, I was undertaking a very small (2,500 word, one subject undergraduate assessment peice) qualitative survey.

Have you advertised it in the newsletters again (I'm sure that's where I found the first one)? Also harry_potter and fanthropology?

When does it close? Because I'm sure that other people on my f'list would be interested, if they haven't come across it before.

"When I studied fandom, I studied just one particular community, and was able to post questions there."

Yeah, I debated between that and just pulling them from everywhere. Kinda wish I would have gone with that instead.

And yes, I announced the survey extension in daily_snitch and hogwarts_today. I announced the survey during its first week in fanthropology, but I haven't mentioned the week extension there yet. I'll check out harry_potter. I sent it to metafandom also, but they haven't posted the last 3 or 4 links I've sent in. Not sure what that's about.

"When does it close?"

The absolute last day I can take any more surveys is April 12, at 6 PM Central Standard Time.

"Because I'm sure that other people on my f'list would be interested, if they haven't come across it before."

Good lord, that's music to my ears. Any linkage would be insanely appreciated.

I found you from pottersues, I'd definitely ask her to make you link of the day again if you need more people. ^^

Thanks, I'll check her out. I didn't know she had listed me last time until after the fact.
