That's a nice feature request Kay. We use sounding pretty heavily with a national food company. It's usually tied into their mailings which have surpassed the 100,000 subscriber mark. There's always a freebie for those that complete the survey so unfortunately the link to the survey is always leaked out to slickdeals and fatwallet. These 2 sites have a near Slashdot effect on a server. The first time this happened we ended up having to move their results off to a dedicated server just so we could wait out the 6+ hours it took to create the excel dump. Which in turn was filled with useless garbage because people just clicked buttons and filled out gibberish to get to the freebie.
I would love question #1 to be "Where did you hear about us" and those that select either of those 2 sites could just get forwarded to a coupon finish. It might not help the processing time but it certainly would help the server load after the initial mailer. Either way Ray. Stay on course with the N questions feature. It would really add to the end user experience for those of us who are launching 80 question surveys. As always, thanks for the great work.

I can tell you my thoughts on it. The idea I had was that a question would have a dependancy. The dependancy would be a string like question1 eq 2 The current question would only run if the dependancy was true. I think that may be the right path, but I haven't really worked on it. My next big update for Soundings was to allow for N questions per page.
