I feel like it would be easier to simply cull the results that include 65+ responses to that Q, than to design the survey to eject you if you give a 65+ response.

Like, it would be better for optics, sure, but WotC is demonstrably incompetent at optics. It would be more effective at data gathering, sure, because they could sort out which opinions are ONLY held by older players, but I don't think they're that clever tbh. But it would be easier, and there's no reason they wouldn't do the easier thing.

So I'm in the "this seems like a weird fluke" camp.

This is just another poorly thought out and executed plan of many from the company. Maybe they should put the shovel down for a while.

It's perfectly normal and ordinary for surveys of this sort to have demographic quotas. I don't understand the fuss. A correctly-designed survey sets quotas for each demographic group, so that it isn't skewed by groups that are more likely to participate. If they're cutting off older respondents, that just means they have enough data from people in that age range but still need responses from other ranges. It doesn't mean they don't care about the age group - it means they do care about other age groups.

If you're juggling 6-7 alt accounts, are you compromising the survey?

 I was curious about this, and unless you clear cache or use a different device the link in the email will tell you you have already completed or are not eligible I don't remember the exact message.  If you change devices it doesn't catch it. I didn't try clearing cache but was on the same network. I would say it is laughable, but at this point I just smile and SMH. I checked this for testing purposes only and only completed 1 survey. 

Much like D&D this is not a win or lose game for players, just WotC and they own the rights to win or lose.

Yeah, I was talking about some recent phenomenon I see on the boards and wonder if anyone may try to be a "brigade of one" with a Tor browser or something, and that's pretty involved to game a market research survey, but people like to play games.

The IRL lore being written now will plague tables for ages.

 Is it a plague if the people playing the game are either happy with the change or don't care about it, instead using their own lore, for this, a creative and collaborative venture?

 creative and collaborative for those allowed to contribute

You are talking about a survey with an NDA you specifically agreed to, so using this forum to discuss it is inappropriate.

That having been said, there was one question for which none of the options was applicable to me, but it would not allow the question to go unanswered.

I just completed the survey (won't ever be doing that again as it forces you to give only "approved" answers to a fair number of non-related questions).

I am north of 55 and it didn't kick me out at all...not that I would have minded.
