New Data

Participant 1

  • Favorable to big text.
  • Wanted information on desirable story length.
  • Suggested changing story to explanation.
  • Wanted it to be called "your story"
  • Wanted warning on how important/needed estimates would be.
  • Wanted uneditable boxes.
  • Wanted real coal prices on top of page rather than bottom.

  • Suggested the second similarity question is unnecessary.

Faults

  • Question checks too easy.
  • Boxes should be uneditable.

Corrections

  • Changed it to "your story"
  • Provided information about story length.
