Greetings, programs! With the MCDM community's help, I've prepared a survey of GM styles, so that I can use factor analysis to find the common variables underlying GMs' responses, and come up with a scientific answer to "what kinds of GM styles are there?" The survey has 43 questions and takes a few minutes to complete. The more people answer, the better the data we'll get.

EDIT: We got 101 responses and now we're analysing the data. First results: There are 9 dimensions of GM style! Not sure what they are, but there's 9 of them.

A tricky thing, is that I don't GM the same way a zero prep horror game where death is certain, and a blockbuster RPG campaign. And that many questions depend on the specific context. Having players who need to come home by the last train means I have a hard deadline to end a session. But if that player sin't there we can find the right moment

Anyway, thanks for your pool, and curious about the results
