SURVEY ONE

RESPONDENT PAIRS

SANGUIS/CORDIS: SANGUIS/IRIS: CORDIS/IRIS:	1 4 6

RELATIONSHIP TYPES

M/M M/F F/F	4 5 2	(2 S/I, 2 C/I, 0 S/C) (2 S/I, 3 C/I, 0 S/C) (0 S/I, 1 C/I, 1 S/C)

MOONBLESSING ATTRIBUTES OF DATAPOOL

SANGUIS: CORDIS: IRIS:	WOLF - 4 RAM - 1 CAT - 5 KITSUNE - 1 WINGS (??) - 1 BAT - 3 JELLYFISH - 3 RABBIT - 1 DEER - 2 RACCOON - 1

MOONBLESSING ATTRIBUTES BY PAIRING TYPE

SANGUIS/IRIS: CORDIS/IRIS: SANGUIS/CORDIS:	WOLF/BAT (2) RAM/JELLYFISH WOLF/RABBIT KITSUNE/BAT CAT/DEER (2) WINGS/JELLYFISH CAT/RACCOON CAT/JELLYFISH WOLF/CAT

MOST COMMON REPORTED TRAIT

SANGUIS: CORDIS: IRIS:	POSSESSIVENESS HUNGER PHEREMONES NEED FOR AFFECTION

TIME SINCE ARRIVAL

ARRIVED SAME: ONE MONTH DIFF. > ONE MONTH DIFF.	5 2 4

OBSERVATIONS:

Every Sanguis in the S/I pairing type reports possessive behavior; most Irises report some form of clingy/needy behavior

Four of six Cordises report increased hunger, four of six Cordises report pheromones

Three of four cats report becoming ASSHOLES

One Iris in the C/I pairing type mentions essentially no symptoms of moonblessing

Three of six Irises in the C/I pairing type report going into heat, five of six report heightened affection

Five of eleven respondents have been here the same amount of time

Seven of eleven respondents have been here the same or within one month of each other

SURVEY TWO

MOONBLESSING PREDICTIONS

GUESSED CORRECT: GUESSED INCORRECT: DECLINED TO GUESS:	4 3 1

OBSERVATIONS:

Of the seven actual responses, five thought they were going to be Iris.

Both respondents who guessed wrong about being Iris are actually Cordis.

No one guessed Iris and wound up Sanguis.

No one guessed they would be Cordis.

Two people guessed they would be Sanguis; one was correct and one was wrong.

The Sanguis who was wrong is actually an Iris.

>> People who are Iris seem to be slightly better at identifying that they will probably be Iris.

Hey, it's me again, the guy from last month who was doing that survey about the moonblessings.

I think I've got some pretty good data now so people who were interested in seeing a copy of that, you can message me here if you want and I'll share it.

Not sure what I'm going to do next but there's some good stuff to think about in here I think. So thanks if you participated.

And if you participated and were just stupid with your answers, well, guess what, science marched on anyway despite you.

Oh.

[OH THAT'S RIGHT the people responding to his surveys have feelings. Right. Yes. Right.]

Sure, I...guess that would make more sense. How would you frame it, though?

[sycamour]

[A wild teachable moment appeared!]

Let's break it down. We want to focus on potential relationship problems, but don't want people to feel like we're asking them to spill their interpersonal drama to the network. Anonymity for respondents is obvious, but for the questions...

...how about something like 'Does your relationship undergo any changes when your moon is active? Positive changes or negative changes? Could you elaborate on your answer to the above?' etc. What do you think?

[starmark]

I mean. A lot of people had no problem putting their relationship problems all over the network the last time.

...But.

I guess I can see how your way would get better results.

[sycamour]

It might ensure we get more than just those keen to air their dirty laundry, if I may be blunt. A diverse sample pool is always important, after all!
