Fruit Machine Chat

Hi

I would like to invite forum members to take part in a short survey about Internet gambling in the UK. The survey asks a series of questions about Internet gambling activity and how it changes over time. It takes about 15 minutes to complete and completed entries are entered into a prize draw for an Apple Ipod touch.

To take part, you need to be over 18, live in the UK and gamble on the Internet for money, either now or in the past, on any type of game, e.g. betting, poker, bingo, lottery, fruit machines, casino games.

The survey and further details about the research are available at
http://university-of-greenwich127920252 ... mo.com/s3/

If there is anything you want to know or check out before you take the survey, please just ask.

Thankyou.

This is fruitchat, not a website for free adverting. If you want Surveys try asking people on a high street

I took a more pleasant approach and filled out the survey anonymously. A little kindness costs you nothing.

Lots of professional gamblers start out by studying mathematical modelling at uni. Wish I had of done so a few years ago. Know a guy who makes thousands this way off of Betfair.

Filled it out also - its not going to hurt you! They need responses from online gamblers and fruit chat is a good place to ask....

Thanks very much to all those who have completed the survey. If you haven't completed it yet, please do so soon - the survey will be closing on 30th September.

I will conduct the draw in the week after the survey closes and you can expect to hear from me by 15 October if you have won an Apple Ipod Touch.

Thankyou again. The contribution from this forum is very much appreciated

The plan is to use this research, along with some other studies I have done, to write research papers for academic journals. The Daily Mail probably won't be that interested!
