I got my email from Karwansary a few days later; having been a data point for several years now.<br /><br />I like to chip in to add another data point for 1/72, 1/32 (54 mm) and 2 mm.<br />[If you have influence Jonathan, could you please try to get 1/72 listed specifically, even if grouped with 20 mm and 1/76? There are a lot of people wargaming in the scale, as you know too well from blogs.]<br /><br />Like all such questionnaires, it’s fun to do. This year's was especially enjoyable and easy to complete. I liked the clever bit of programming around the top three. As a few others have commented, sometimes my precise answer was not an option, so I had to select the best available. Having 'other (specify)...' as an option would help this.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing the results when they are produced on the Karwansaray website and no doubt this blog too!<br /><br />Cheers, JamesJames Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897755636246185173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-51923520537689071332022-08-10T21:13:32.983-07:002022-08-10T21:13:32.983-07:00Having played with WoFun figures over the last yea...Having played with WoFun figures over the last year or two, I wish I would have thought to include that option in this year’s survey.Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-26230288369897454362022-08-10T19:29:44.200-07:002022-08-10T19:29:44.200-07:00Now that Wofun are converting the 10mms with very ...Now that Wofun are converting the 10mms with very thin plastic, I am also reminded that roleplaying games (read: 1-1 fantasy skirmishes) have had single flexible plastic flats available for a few years now. They're available at most game stores. I know this survey doesn't lean towards fantasy RPGs, but given their origin in traditional wargaming they probably ought to at least be an option.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11669958718617450721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-11045713394728547742022-08-07T19:03:58.159-07:002022-08-07T19:03:58.159-07:00Plexiglass!

I still have a few topics remaining to explore from the 2021 and 2020 surveys.<br /><br />On your cryptography link, what brought this into your browser feed? Are you interested in the topic, in software encryption, software development, IT, or something else? My first exposure to software encryption/algorithms was when reading an article in Popular Science (or was it maybe Popular Computing?) magazine in the very early 1980s. Fascinating topic.
