1.   For the past couple years, I switched to an individual activity after years of running the Write-A-Thon as a team effort. Which do you prefer? (R)

2.   In the past, the Write-A-Thon had numerous sponsorship levels (1/10 GP per word, 1/2 GP per word, etc.) as well as the ability to set minimum and maximum donation amounts. Recently, it's been a fixed 1 GP per word donation to simplify things, with the ability to still set minimum and maximum donation amounts. Would you like to see the fractional GP donations reinstated? (R)

3.   I try to post at least two check-ins/status updates throughout the month to let everyone know how the word counts are shaping up. Do you find these updates helpful, not helpful, or do you not care? (R)

4.   The activity currently requires a minimum of 12,500 words (25% completion) in order to be eligible for any prizes. What do you think of that limit? (R)

5.   The prizes currently include a merit badge for participation (NaNo Participant for more than 12,500 words written, or NaNo Winner for making it to 50,000+ words), plus additional merit badges for the highest word count and donations, plus 5% of the entire activity's haul divided among the winning writers. What do you think of the prizes? (R)

6.   I'm pretty lax about writers who don't update their word counts. If they don't update it, they get a zero (or however many words are on their self-reported NaNoCounter). Should I be tougher on requiring writers to update their word counts regularly and removing writers who do not? (R)

7.   The activity generally leaves writers alone to write their words. Does that work for you, or do you wish there was more involvement/participation? (R)
