Here's the thing: https://s.surveyplanet.com/p5_JCA2Mi

Crowns will be rewarded on a rolling basis, and should be gifted within a week of submitting your survey. It will ask you for your support ID, which is how we will be able to give them for ya!

Under 13's are not able to complete this survey FYI! We're gauging many, many things in this survey to help us with future direction and measure impact of past endeavours. Thanks in advance anyone willing to fill it out - and let me know any Qs :D

Time to complete should be around 15 mins.

Mobile users: some of this form will display wider than your screen. Please either rotate your screen or scroll to the right to ensure you're seeing all info - I.E, if we are asking you to rank something in there, ensure you can see the full scale (1-10) to complete your answer (and not just 1-4!)

Thank you for flagging this, I'll add this to my post copy!

What exactly is Board of Beans? Is it something that requires a lot of time investment?

It'll be up to you how much you can commit to it, as we'll be tappin' up our Board of Beans for a variety of things over the year! Members of the BoB will be asked to complete more surveys ad-hoc, give us feedback on a variety of secret things, and more. Each time you are asked to help us with feedback for something, you'll have the option to decline/ignore, but being a BoB member ensures we can directly contact you about it.

Forgot to put in the survey I'd like Mediatonic to stop giving preferential treatment to handpicked streamers. Free Crowns, Kudos, Exclusive Costumes, Private Lobbies, etc...it needs to stop.

Private Lobbies was launched with people who have communities first as it takes 40+ beans to fill a lobby right now, though that functionality will change and expand over time and we'll be bringing them to everyone where we can!

For Crowns/Kudos, are you referring to the times where a CM has gifted a streamer for an event/with an audience sporadically? Or is this something you're seeing regularly? I don't do these myself but just checking what's going on :).

For costumes - each season we will have some reserved for various giveaways on social media. These won't always be one particular kind of giveaway (I.E, these won't always be art-based or similar). There will be a lot of opportunities to enter and get these exclusive costumes as time goes on. I was not here when the S2 trailer was released containing the Dark Knight and other recolours that were not released, but, we have since been making sure we are not making exclusive costumes point-of-focus in marketing materials or trailers.

Giving handpicked streamers free Crowns, Kudos, Costumes, etc has been going on since Day 1. I just don't like how normal players have to work for everything they get but a streamer can get everything handed to them just because someone at MT thinks it'll be good PR. Honestly it would make me not trust anything that streamer says about the game because it can be viewed as just buying a good review.

It's not that we 'think it'll be good PR' it actually IS good PR and we have data and analytics to back it up. You can track streamer views against sales of the game and against concurrent players. If you look at Among Us, or the new hype around Rust - Streamers 100% can massively impact the popularity and success of a game. It's no harm/cost to us to give them a little something extra to make their streams more fun, and if it helps them create better content, then it is a win all around.

You're not losing anything because we give them something extra. You're actually benefitting too, because the better the game does, the more people play it, the more we can support it, and then the more content you get.

A streamer being gifted a costume they really wanted, live, on stream, is really fun content for their audience.

Absolutely love this suggestion and have sent on! Great shout.

I like the idea of there being a BoB discord/board. Have everyone who aims to join sign an NDA, it will probably be easy to notify members of new surveys, maybe have community polls of new show names and what not.

Yeah, I think first we see how many BoBs we have then figure out communication types and how we scale that out from there! :) but also, it isn't a replacement for our OVERALL community - which is everyone here ofc, and Twitter, and Discord, and Insta, so sometimes polls will always be community wide (object names for example) - but this is for targeted, qualitative feedback outside of just our beta tests etc. The beaniest of beans.

I spent a year trying to be a full time youtuber before I got into the game industry. I managed to get up to 150k subscribers, which is pretty decent. It was sooooooo much work though. It looks really easy and fun but you're putting in crazy hours, for very little return. I was making far less than minimum wage. It was fun too, don't get me wrong, but I have soooooooo much respect for content creators that manage to stick at it and make it their livelihood. Then, when I joined the games industry, I saw that streamers/youtubers playing your game can completely change the fate of your game. The difference between an indie game having absolutely no sales, and going viral, can literally come down to youtubers/streamers playing it. I worked on games such as Surgeon Simulator, I am Bread, and Pigeon Simulator, before Fall Guys - and all of them, owe a lot of their success to creators.

Nope it's a unique ID that you find in your settings! A combination of letters. When you're able to, head to the settings gear in game, go to "Profile" and there will be an option to show your support ID!

It wasn't clear to me what BoB meant during the survey so I said no, but reading this I think I changed my mind. Is there any way for me to still sign up, even if I said no in the survey?

You'll need to submit another survey (but we'll only reward one set of five crowns obviously!) in order to Opt In properly! :)

The survey made it sound like it was only regarding other platforms, so I said No, but here it sounds like more of a general thing, which I would've loved...

I know this is late but I would’ve LOVED to be a part of the Board of Beans! I wish I didn’t say no when I filled it out as it was a bit vague as to what exactly the Board of Beans was :(. Is there any way, like other comments have asked, that I could sign up for it even though I already filled out the survey? If I have to fill out the survey again I will because this sounds like something that would be really interesting to be apart of

u/trichoglossusbee - Once you've applied to be a part of BoB and you've left your email address, do you get sent a confirmation email?

I did the survey via the official Instagram account last night and the keyboard on my phone can be annoying at times and I feel like I may have typed my email address incorrectly because of it.

I haven't received a confirmation email yet which is kinda adding to my worry/belief that I typed my email out incorrectly. If no confirmation email gets sent out, then I won't worry so much. :)

Nah no confirmation email to my knowledge :D! When we send our first round of communications to the BoBs, I'll let you know and you can double check.

Do these crowns count on the crown rank? I use the crown rank to calculate how many wins i have so not sure if its showing 5 extra now.

Yeah, though we've seen a small delay with them counting! Should only take a day max for it to be applied to your ranks - but it definitely counts!

I did the survey last thursday (or was it friday?), but I haven't received my reward yet. In the OP you said it would take a week or so to process this but it seems that people who have done the survey later than I have are saying that they already have received their rewards.

What gives? Should I do the survey again, just in case?

I wouldn't repeat the survey for this, it's best to give it another few days - the team are still processing Thursday and Friday's survey results (we've had a LOTTTTT of submissions!)

I certainly wouldn't fret - if for some reason you don't have the reward on the 8th day after submitting, pop me a DM and I'll reach out to check what's happened!

I did the survey about 10 days ago, but I still didn't receive the reward. I also signed up for the Board of Beans thing with my email, but I haven't got any info about that either. Is it possible my survey got lost somehow, or should I wait a couple more days, to start worrying? :D

Nah it's a good time to wonder, 10 days is long! Could you kindly pop me a direct message with your support code? We've had a few that have submitted but accidentally typed their support code out wrong, or popped extra info in that field, so I'll check for that first :)

Hi there, I did the survey about 11 days ago, but I don’t think I have received the crowns. I also signed up to the board of beans, but haven’t had anything from that either. Is this possible to check? Thank you so much :)

Absolutely! Just pop me over a DM with your support code and I'll go digging for ya.

Hey, I didn't get my crowns and I did the survey just as it was posted, like 12 days ago. How long till I should start worrying?

The good news is, you needn't ever worry as I can help! Just pop me a DM or chat with your support code in, and I'll get to hunting and be back in touch.
