When we sent surveys out, Backerkit told me that 80% of people would complete them in a timely manner. I scoffed: OUR backers would do their duty and complete their surveys as soon as they got them.

I was wrong. Currently only 79% of people have completed their surveys. 

There is some wiggle-room in the numbers, because people who are paying in instalments do not get their surveys until the last instalment is complete. But that does not account for the whole shortfall.

Having learned from the Crowley experience, I want to start getting those things that can be manufactured early kicked off. But I can't do that until I have final numbers, and I can't get final numbers until the surveys are complete.

So please, if you have received a survey, fill it in! It's a weekend, it's surely too hot to do anything other that sit in front of the computer answering questions about T-shirt sizing - seize this opportunity to tick this one thing off your to do list.

Thank you!
