enters neither agree nor disagree

Wouldn't that imply it being exactly 30 minutes? I mean technically you should disagree (because 30 minutes !> 30 minutes), but yeah, it does look a little ridiculous.

If I had to guess, they designed it so they could only put in that range of responses (Strong disagree -> Strong agree), and have to make do with it for everything.

No, if it lasted thirty minutes, then it didn't last longer than thirty minutes. oops

Looks as though you didn't read the first part of the second sentence.

I did but I only glanced over it and didn't fully take it in. Apologies.

They want to make early game last 5 minutes, mid game 3 minutes, and game ends by 15 minutes when you can unanimously surrender.

There is no such thing as surrender in bronze.

Really? Cus in my experience you mash surrender if you're even 1 kill behind in Bronze LOL

It doesn't always succeed (cus usually not everyone is feeding on the same team) but there's a lot of butthurt surrender votes

I'm in silver now, and I seriously miss bronze. Badly.

I think they finally added IQ test. Below 80 iq they just put you in bronze.

Got the same survey except instead of 30 mins mine was worded as half of an hour, very strange and meaingless lol.

Riot Games is magic.

Don't give them data, it's a trap! They might want to shorten game time further.

I agree.

I disagree with your agreement. As a matter of fact, the match lasted 27:01 minutes.

that's more than 30:00, right?

Fixed it. I read fast, but not necessarily the right thing :P

Next survey: The match you just played lasted more than 0:00 minutes.

Strongly Disagree

That's a very strange survey though. Like, "did you like the length of this game" would be way better.

TimX24968B1 votes

It might have to do with determining a champion's strength at a certain point in the game. Like if you play a super late game champ but you do terrible, that can be offset by that survey by saying that "oh, the game ended before we got to late game, so this wouldn't be as valid for determining their in-game strength."

Or testing for some condition that is present if the game ran longer than 30 minutes, like if it leads to more or less honors, or even just a percentage of games that go past that mark.

Just some speculation

It is about the satisfaction of match length.

Not sure what's so confusing about it...

Sraeg20136 votes

It's literally asking about the match's length, not the perception of it.

The thread is asking what the point of the survey was.

I gave the correct answer. I'm not sure what part you are confused about...

Sraeg20131 votes

I gave the correct answer.

Considering somebody else posted the same or a similar survey with "half an hour" instead, I'm pretty sure it is literally asking for the match's length and you aren't correct.

Also the title is a rhetorical question.

There are two types of people. Those that can extrapolate from incomplete existing data.

.... I'll add extra though, since Riot moderation has outright told me that if I don't stop making people look..... I will be in violation of the summoner code so let's explain the fundamentals here.

The survey is somewhat awkwardly worded by it pertains to player satisfaction with the length of the match specified. To this end, the question asks if the length was something the player agrees with or not and to what degree they agree with said duration. It's really not that complicated..... the poll was just somewhat awkwardly worded.

I would think native english speakers would have a much easier time than I do, given that english isn't even my native language [That line came dangerously close to , this isn't even my final form].

Sraeg20132 votes

It's not "awkwardly worded", it's flat out incorrect if the idea behind this specific poll is what you say it is.

The poll asks for an opinion about a statement that can only be "true" or "false", because you literally have the length of the match written on the same screen.

Somebody joked that it's an IQ test which may ironically be closer to the truth.

I am forbidden from ripping into your arguments [as I would love to do since they're atrocious]

Oh, please do. Maybe then your counter-arguments would start making sense beyond "I'm not allowed to say".

Sometimes I wonder how people can be so.......

I wonder that too.

"Rate your agreement: The match I just played was longer than 30 minutes."

There is nothing to agree on. It's not a matter of opinion. It either was longer than 30 minutes or not. No "maybeh". It's either "yes" or "no".

Spinning this as if it was an opinion is the SJW way to do which you ironically dislike.

And don't bullshit me with "This isn't what they meant, how can you not see that?".

Riot's match history can tell how long a game was, why can't they?
