[Dev question] Do you know about the player devision in palace of the dead?

[Astrus]

Division hm? I'm genuinely curious if the playerbase seems to be so divided, it needs the attention of a dev to fix Potd.

With that in mind, I made this poll. It's not the most overly thought out but I did try to come up with many scenarios as possible. The actual intent being wanting to see what's the overall satisfaction that they playerbase draws from PotD.

For ease of reading (and because I'm too lazy to keep wrapping quote tags around them) I'll be bolding the questions and answer in italics.

Part I

-How many times do you do PotD (Floors 51+) in a week and how many floor brackets do yo do?
In the area of 10 to 15 runs per week, usually just repeating 51-60 unless I'm running with someone who wants to go to 100

-Following the above question, how many people do openly speak up about wanting to speedrun and if so, which floor brackets do you most encounter them in?
People talking in chat about wanting a speedrun? On average none. People just making a beeline for the portal? Every single run.

-By that same note, how many people do openly speak up about wanting silver chests and/or explore all rooms and if so, which floor brackets do you most encounter them in?
Again, talking in chat? Usually none. People just splitting off for a moment to peek into siderooms? One every second run on average if I'm not counting myself.

-From a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being extremely satisfied and 1 being extremely unsatisfied, how would you rate your overall weekly completions of floor brackets:

A) 51-60 5
B) 61-70 5
C) 71-80 3
D) 81-90 2
E) 91-100 4


Part II

-When no one speaks up, list your main preferred or habitual style of PotD play
*Mixed chestrun, going after easy chests if possible but killing things along the way as well
I assume this also means peeking into nearby siderooms to check for chests.

-When someone requests any of the above playstyles, do you comply:
-If the majority also agrees?

-Do you request a preferred style in PotD? If so, how many times a week?
Only if there's some sort of obvious conflict in objectives, so usually not.
I'll just occasionally split off from the party to peek into nearby siderooms and grab any silver chests that are easy enough to reach.
-By that same note, how many times does at least one party member complies with your request in a week?
Out of the few times I felt the need to speak up the group went along with it each time save for once.
-Have you ever wanted to kick someone because they did not comply?
Yes, once, and only because "not comply" meant "sabotaging the run trying to wipe the group".
-Have you ever actually kicked someone because they did not comply?
Yes, the same person as above.


Part III

-Do you have a pet peeve in PoTD, aside from what might have been mentioned in the previous parts of the questionnaire? If so, how do you deal with it?
You bet I do. People springing mimics then running away and people crowding chests and/or looting in combat. If it happens, especially if three people decided to crowd the booby trapped chest, I tell them politely that their behaviour is not wise and to please let a single person loot chests after the room has been secured. If they don't listen I'll be extra careful to keep my distance from any chests and only engage with one mob at a time even if there are multiple pulled so I can attempt to salvage the run if things go south and the pack resets.
-If you could improve PotD in anyway, pls check the following (multiple answers eligible)
*Other (pls explain)
I'd really like to be able to get a "Minesweeper" title after triggering a silly amount of mines, does that count?
I'd also love for silver chests to take priority over golden chests when displayed as icons on the map.
