Stuck inside on a cold day? Kill a few minutes and help me out by taking a Family Feud survey! I'll be keeping these for personal use and for future events/party games to have authentic surveys. There are 40 questions over two pages. Your participation would be greatly appreciated! Thank you and hope you have a little bit of fun.

Just completed the survey, though there were three questions I was stumped on [so I typed (pass) on those]...
- Name something you'd never have at home, but will spring for when going out to eat.
- Name a reason why you might argue at a family gathering.
- Name something that hums.
Other than those, good survey!

Just took your survey, good batch of questions!

Something that doesn't know the words.

Good questions Chad! I was tempted to answer Archibald Leach, Bernard Schwartz and Lucille LeSueur for one question but I went with my first answer instead :)

Interesting; how difficult is it to put together something like that? I'd love to have some American responses to a game of Pointless, but don't know how high the bar to entry is.
And agree; great questions.

Just took the survey...interesting questions. I may have to do the same. Have a family outing coming this summer.

Thanks guys! I thought this would take longer but from posting it here and a couple of other places, I have 115-ish responses, so I am more than equipped.

>:( Bastard!
:'( I wanted to take the survey.
;) I liked the green theme, though.
\I love how we can see each other's winkies.
\\Hmmm...

I thought someone here set up a Pointless survey a while back. Maybe it was someone on the Jeopardy board. Anyway, he had what I thought were some great American questions, but I don't remember hearing what happened with the survey results. If that person could step forward, maybe he could advise you on creating one of your own.

It was Peter Sarrett, and he used the material in the massively-multiplayer game show he ran at the Sasquatch and BGG.CON board game conventions last fall.

Did it! I've plugged my Feud surveys a few times around here, it was only fair to return the favor...and yes, those were well-written questions. However, I have a question for Chad. How'd you get 100+ responses so quickly? The last time I did compiled a survey like this, it took me about 3 1/2 weeks to reach my triple digit goal. You said that you posted this survey in a couple of other places, would you care to share some of those? I'd love to compare notes. I too shared my last survey in a few other places, but it was like pulling teeth.

I linked it here, a pro wrestling board I visit and on my Facebook and Twitter. I have large three-digit followings on both, so that helped out.
Chad, do you think you could ever share these responses/polls, maybe after the event you're using them for?
Yep.

And here you all go. Here is the link to the raw survey data: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AucNsXeXMmSydDRzM0dzRVkyUjd4bG5SUEZEYUlNamc&usp=sharing
And this is the link to the 100 responses, ordered and tidied, that I sampled and used for each question:

Feel free to consume for your own personal uses. Enjoy!

The multiple choice totals don't add to 100, but there were more than 100 respondents. Hope that's merely a typo and not indecision of several answerers. :)
-
Seeing how the numbers work, I appreciate how many questions they have to go through to decide which ones can be used in a main game and which ones can be used in Fast Money.
-

Yes - it should have been 51, not 41. Edited.
-
what I find interesting aren't the top answers (because they're predictable) but the unpredictability of the answers that picked up one or two points each. And they're not the kind of thing you'd say as if it was a Dirty Rotten Cheater setup, they're just off-the-wall.
I remember a charity game from the CBS run that asked the past/present/future question and both answers given represented either all 100 points or damn near all of 'em.

Looks like I gave a Pointless answer: Dunkelman didn't even make the ordered list for the Idol question.

Sounds like your answer wasn't chosen as one of the first 100, and even then an answer has to be named two times to chart on the big board anyway.
When answering the questions I tried to not play the meta-game of "what will be the top answer?" or "What will fill the lower half of the board and make for an interesting round?" and to just give the first answer that came to mind instead of gaming it.

Lots of the singletons were named in the ordered list. Not a criticism, just something I noticed.

Recognizing that you are not criticizing: it's still useful data in general, if not for Family Feud necessarily.
All props to Chad for being sporting enough to share that much curated content freely.

One thing I didn't mention that I thought others might find interesting: I did scrap one whole question. In an attempt to be grammatically correct, I asked "Name something onto which you put ice cream." Looking at the responses given, I realized that, by the answers given, a lot of people appeared to misunderstand or misread it as "Name something you put on ice cream." The question was aiming more for "pie" or "a cone," instead of "chocolate syrup" or "sprinkles," which I got enough of to render the question unusable.

Ahh, the "Something to which you often lose your key" of 2014.
