[Coco] CoCo Use Poll

"There is actually a blank line between the double dashes when I type"

I have the same problem. I just enter two blank lines and it appears as one. Annoying, but I haven't figured out how to fix it.


"...but the IP checking should weed out repeat answers."

This is assuming that it is within the same public ip address network. What if...

a. I take the survey here at work then I go to fb at home, see the survey and take it again? <only one Enter here>
b. My colleague is also a CoCo user, so we both attempt to take the survey from the same public ip address network.

Regards!

Another point to make would be that this poll would have completely different results if offered to the Coco FaceBook group. Since a lot of the members are gamers, there are MANY more Coco 1 & 2 users as there are many more games for the Coco 1 & 2.
A lot of the FaceBook group are purists in that they like original hardware and the ones that do use emulators, tend to use Mame.

There is actually a blank line between the double dashes when I type - don't know why the carriage returns are being stripped...Let's keep the poll open on here through mid March at least so everyone gets a chance to see it. Then maybe open to the Facebook crowd to get a bigger picture of overall CoCo use, not just the list. I know some here are members of the Facebook group as well, but the IP checking should weed out repeat answers.
