They are doing a survey to see what the players like / want / dislike.
Check it out if you want, there seems to be some coupon prizes too
I've checked it out and it's ok to visit them.
Quote from their newsletter:
"How do you play?" -or- Yet another survey about online gaming.
(YASAOG)
Dear Gamers,
in the Department Media Management at the University of Ilmenau /
Germany we are dedicated in the scientific research on different types
of online games. Especially we focus on browser-based games, client
games (sveral free MMORPGs, Second Life & Online Poker), other types of
computer games and console games.
To do this we are dependent on your help. Thus we ask you to
participate in our survey, which takes only a few minutes of your time.
As compensation for your invested time, we raffle free coupons. In
addition - and thats much more interesting than any coupon - we
publicate our results for free after finishing all research to everyone
who is interested in it.
Needless to say that all information you give is collected anonymously
and will only be used for academic purposes. There is no commercial
provider involved in our research.
We wish you to have fun participating in our survey.

Best Regards,
Daniel Schultheiss
