LEGO Revival: Discussion

[Mister Phes]

Captain Roger and I are trying our best to motivate the crew at PirateBricks.com but alas, it would appears that nobody is visiting the General Forum where it has been posted. I've requested that it be moved or linked to an forum with more traffic, but no response as yet.

I will do my best to push here, Lugnet, and CC. I will also see if my brickshelf trick will work. Thank you everyone who is helping out.

So the question is : what do you need from EB ? :)

what does EB stand for?

um does it stand for euro bricks? :$

[SuvieD]

Mostly, for everyone who knows about it to answer. I sent everyone registered through page 13 (I think) that has posted at least 15 times a PM to please take the survey. There are 40 some pages so I will try to send more PMs this week and then finish them next week.

I still haven't heard anyone say they put a link or the survey itself on BZP. An EB member who posts there could do that.

Really, I think EB is by far the most receptive and helpful which is a proof of the unity and respect people get here at EB. Even my simple idea has proved to be helpful and useful. It may help LEGO, it helps us know more about what we would like to see, and it has increased the number of members here at EB.

The goal of 100 seems very acheivable. So I now move it to 200. With 26 more days it will take 5 people a day. Between five sites that is only one per day for each site. Difficult at the current rate but very possible.

That would be correct Chewie...

Here's how the count stands:

26 in EB thread

5 in CC thread

14 in LUGNET thread

17 in FBTB thread

For 62 total.

[Mister Phes]

For the benefit of lazy creatures like me, is it possible we could have links to the threads on the other boards so we can read the responses?

Oh, come on Phes. I'm sure if you tried really hard, you could move your fingers for a couple minutes. ;)

I edited my post with links.

[Mister Phes]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!! I've sprained my index finger! Now look what you've made me do Bloody Jay!

BTW... Thanks for the links!

[Darth_Ewok]

Well it looks like you guys need some more people to take the survey. and someone to fix phes's index finger! ;)

[Mister Phes]

Didn't that survey LEGO released earlier this year get 500 responses within 15 hours? Is that information accurate?

Jake just mentioned "hours" but I think I read something about 16 hours or so in an answer somewhere in that thread...

[Mister Phes]

In Jake's post I couldn't see any mention to the exact number of hours, but he did write...

Within hours, that hard cap was reached, and the survey automatically shut down.

Since it's the weekend, and most of my colleagues aren't easily accessible, I'll

have to check on the actual number that is the hard cap. I know for sure that

it's no less than 500. WOW.

[SuvieD]

You forgot to add the responses from SS Lair's Yoda posted to (check page 4 of this thread). There is one person who filled out the survey there and at EB. So there are another 10 or so also. I have some important things to get finished this week and then I will get some more focus back on this.

[Mister Phes]

What's SS Lair's?

[SuvieD]

It is this. Saber-Scorpion's Lair Forums

There are 13 response there with one being in both sites so there are 12 from that site.

SSL=12

CC=6

FBTB=18

Lugnet=12

EB=26

Total=74! :oD

[Mister Phes]

Its interesting to see what different users across different message boards want. Each board' seems to want specific things amongst its members, but what's universal is:

Nobody likes the news greys and brown or the juniorsation. Too bad the new colours are here to stay so they fit the "spectrum"

[SuvieD]

Ha ha :-D For those who think I have forgotten I have not! I have been busy and here is the result. Feel free to check out the rest of the battle. Behold the might of the Royal army as they defend against two armies at the same time.

This is the final leg of the race I am passing off the baton to you who have not taken this. August 1st is coming on quickly and there is no time to delay. If have replied to the survey now is the time. If you know someone interested in LEGO toys who has not taken the survey, encourage them to do so now. If have helped by posting links on different forums and taken part in the discussions bump them and keep them up until the 1st. Post any encouragement you can. Spread the word, get peoples attention (in a good way). There is no time to waste.

I will do what I still can but I will need your help.

If you have already answered please feel free to modify, simplify, condense or expand your answers. Just remember, no trash talk, no vulgarity, no put downs, and no completely unrealistic answers should be listed. LEGO will not be able to use such things. Be positive, yet honest and wishful, yet realistic. ;)

To the LEGO revival!

tag- Also, feel free to copy this message, minus this tag, to any other forum to get the word out.

[Mister Phes]

Is the survey officially closed now?

[Mr. Lego-builder]

If it is, what was the official final count of the number of surveys?

[SuvieD]

Yes it is closed. Can a mod. close the original thread?

I will post the excel file late this week. You will either have to dig up all the forums and count it or wait until the file is posted.

I know it is over 100. I am hoping for 120 right now. I am almost transfering EB answers.

[Mister Phes]

Suvie Duvie...

I have closed and unpinned the survey for you.

Let us know the final result for how many actually took the survey when you've finished processing the data.

[SuvieD]

Hey now, 126 responses! That is great. I think if it were automated it would have done at least twice that much. But know I know better for next time (if that ever happens *wacko* ).

Anyway, progress is coming along great. I have some serious macros to work on and some formatting still. I will start again tomorrow I am going to relax and then to bed.

Stay tuned, this will be completed before Sunday evening (my time).

[SuvieD]

Well folks the survey is finished. My brain totally fried *wacko* and my free Saturday completely gone. I just spent the last 12 or so hours finishing this project and it is somewhat lack luster.

Survey

I am too tired and mental deficient right now to make charts/graphs. I enjoy doing both so I will get to it soon just not before Wed. Anyway, feel free to read, comment on, critique or laugh at my stupidity *wacko*

I will await an official response from Jake and let you know anything he says.

-SuvieD

[Mr. Lego-builder]

No laughing here. I'm just amazed that you did all of that! If I were you, my brain would have turned to mush before I even reach halfway!

Nice Job! *satis*
