Campaign Post-Mortem Survey

Like we have discussed on the podcast multiple times, it is important to:
as a DM, asking and receive constructive feedback from your players and 
as a player, provide positive and/or constructive feedback to your DM. 
That said, at the end of chapter two of a large homebrew campaign setting I've been running since 2009, I sent an email to each of my players:
  • thanking them for 18 crazy nights, 
  • remembering some of my favorite moments with them and their PC's in the last campaign chapter, 
  • asking them some after-campaign story questions about what their character does with the rest of his/her life, 
and then asked the following questions. Keep in mind this wasn't anonymous but - because I emailed each person individually - wasn't subject to groupthink or other people's opinions.

Here's the text each player received in an email:

  Meanwhile, welcome to all our new listeners, soon-to-be loyal!

Provoking a response

Hello, listeners!

For future episodes, we're looking for your input on ANY of the following topics:

  • Your favorite DND4e House Rules or general RPG "table" rules
  • Examples of excellent/poor/hilarious on-the-spot DM decisions, not rule-based, from your campaign or from one you played in
  • Your favorite custom DND Delve concepts, themes, gimmicks or scenarios
  • Your ideas on how to make a Delve (or one-night session) special, including ideas, scenario rules, house rules, game format
  • Your favorite made-up DND-related curse words (fewmets!) 
Shoot us your ideas in an email ("exemplary dm at gmail dot com", no spaces of course)!  If you've already blogged about a topic, shoot us the link and we'll be happy to share your content on our podcast and link to it on our shownotes.

In exchange for your ideas and input, we'll give you the attribution, praise and/or unholy scorning that you deserve!
