Is there any way to execute the test on ubuntu? If not I can complete it in a few hours when I get back home.
Of course, if that does not work for you, feel free to null my spot and have someone else take it.

The link is in the comment above, if you haven't found it yet.

I guess you are not looking for this anymore since it's written Test#2(CLOSED)
Sorry, I wanted to help but I still don't know where I was supposed to find the link. Let me know if you still need people.

I just removed my entry here, you can do either of the participant#2 or #3. Sorry for this.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm so sorry, I just came back from work and discovered I need to play a game after downloading a zip folder with .exe in it. I don't mean to point you as a possible threat, but I'm always careful of the downloads from outside. Especially if it's an exe.
I just thought it was a survey and wanted to participate, sorry again that it took too long time to remove my entry here. Good luck for your dissertation, though.

so this slot is open now? since SweetDalilah took #3

survey done and email sent
was it intentional that the survey have statements and its negation with similar wording?
as a non native English speaker (fluent, but rarely spoken recently) it confused me at first glance.

UPDATE. I entered and started the questionarie without knowing I will need to start some game on a PC. So, now I have some questions.
- I'm far from home now, and connected from smartphone, and won't be able to get to PC in the next ~ 10 hours. Is that a problem?
- Connected to #1 - mobile browsers have a habit to lose web page data from time to time. Is there a way to continue test if this happens? And if no - will it be okay to start test from scratch, or that's not allowed?
- And last but not least - it says I need to set 1920x1080 resolution, but my monitor is only 1280x1024. Is it okay to play witb different resolution?
Comment has been collapsed.
i just ran it on tht resolution and it was fine, so go ahead it doesn't make too much of a difference
Comment has been collapsed.
Aaaaand done. Questionarie finished, email sent.
Sorry for the delay, finished it as soon as I got home.

Seems like I'm too late for this. Got home really late, that I forgot to check if the spot is open. But it looks like you've got the data you've required.
Best of luck to you.

My apologies, I have to back-out. I didn't realize that this would involve running an executable file.
I am on a Mac, so, the executable will not work for me. I have deleted my entry comment above. I was participant #6 in Test #6 (in case you need to delete the partially complete survey from your data).

if there's a room/space left I'm interested. Anyway, thank you for the gibs. =D

I'm not the OP (he seems to have gone to bed)... but, if you scroll up, you should see that there are a lot of slots open. Just reply to one of the participant posts above that have not been replied to by anyone else (like OP describes in his instructions).
Then take the appropriate survey.
Comment has been collapsed.
You need to run an executable file to do a test? What kind of test? And what's the name of the .exe file?
Comment has been collapsed.
i withdraw from the contest don't want to run any exe files sorry about this.i deleted my comment
Comment has been collapsed.
For the people worried about the .exe file, you could use a sandbox/virtual machine software and run it from there, this minimizes(but not eliminates completely) the risks associated.
Comment has been collapsed.
Very true. I still wouldn't do it though.
On a side note..You would actually be pretty surprised at how many people use no protection on their pc. When I was working on peoples pc like only 2 out of 10 people had any sort of anti-malware or AV.
Comment has been collapsed.
What AV/antimalware would you recommend for someone running Win7 & Win10? I'm using Malwarebytes Premium and Avast Internet Security (free). That should be sufficient i hope?
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm using Comodo Firewall + WinPatrol. The hell with antiviruses.
Comment has been collapsed.
If I'm not mistaken Malwarebytes Premium is constantly running on your pc and if that's the case you need to uninstall Avast. Two AV's running at the same time can conflict with each other, just like two firewalls.
Now if you used Malwarebytes AntiMalware free you could use that will Avast cause Malwarebytes wouldn't be constantly monitoring and it would only be a scanner.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks mate. Guess i'll turn the constant monitoring options off then
Comment has been collapsed.
Tbh if I had to choose between the two I would uninstall Avast. Bitdefender in my opinion is better than Avast. They even have a free version that has extremely good zero day detection and it will protect your pc. Bitdefender Free better than many of the paid AVs out there on the market today, but it's very basic with no options really. It's more of install the program and thats it. Run a scan when you want.
Kaspersky is top of line when it comes to paid AVs. They just released a free version not too long ago that's pretty good as well. I would take both Bitdefender and Kaspersky over Avast.
Bitdefender free or Kaspersky free as the active AV and Malwarebytes Antimalware Free to just do random scans to see if your AV let anything through. I'd take these over most paid AVs out there. Anyone looking for good protection I'd advise this.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for the advice. I installed Avast a long while back when I upgraded to win10 from win8.1 after doing some basic research. I should have done some more research after that. I’m getting a bit tired of Avast pushing me to upgrade though so I’ll take a look at Bitdefender. Thanks again :)
Edit: I see Bitdefender and Kaspersky doing really well on the real world protection report Mar 2018 on AV-comparatives. Going to uninstall Avast for Bitdefender now
Comment has been collapsed.
Make sure you keep any active protection from Malwarebytes off before you start to install it.

I guess that's Microsoft's pretense for putting its Win Defender bloatware and stuff on by default and hard as f*** to get rid of :/
Comment has been collapsed.
As much as I'm not a fan of Windows Defender it really has improved a lot and it will be getting better soon. I still would take something I mentioned above over it any day of the week though.

I'm interested but it's bed time here too and on my smartphone. I don't understand though what I need to do after I complete the Questionnaire? Do I need to send you anything, or will you know automatically that I completed it. Thx, I'll sign up above.
Comment has been collapsed.
You need to download and play a Unity game. Then take a screenshot of the game's final statistics screen and email it to the email address stated in the survey. And finally complete the survey after finishing the game

:D I unsubscribed from their mailing list a while back and I don't remember the URL. The experiment was in École Normale Supérieure in Paris though, and as far as I remember all of the XP on the mailing list were performed in France, mostly in the Paris area. So you'll have to factor in the plane tickets too ;)

For those worried about the .exe. It's probably safe. Using BitDefender as an AV.

What i'm reading here is "i'll give you a cookie if you do something for me", whatever this "something" is. Your post never mentions, in any way, what you are asking people to do, while giving us a colourful description of the 1st step to get this "cookie" (and we all love cookies, right?).. "Something" could be "jump off a tall building". I think some people are attributing some degree of (unfounded) trust to you, and are blindly signing up.
Example of dissertation people wouldn't be want to participate: "how many people are gullible enough to blindly do anything for a gift?"

i said it's a questionnaire, 1st part of questionnaire provides all the information about what you'll be doing
Comment has been collapsed.
I'if you filled in one of the slots by completing the required questionnaire or i used your time you'll find you're whitelisted, where you'll have access to a Cuphead and Final fantasy X/X-2 giveaway.
DONE AT LAST!!!
