On ethics in general:

We're not conducting experiment nor using a psychometric test, so we do not have to gain participants formal agreements. Although, we're still trying to keep this as empirical as possible.

We're also working under eye of a supervisor, who is a Psychology Ph.D, working on Univeristy for some time, so although me and my group are still students, we're not just flying around and playing pop-psychology without any restrictions.

Now for the particular problem:

I have the problem with Gems although, because it is a prize for a challange winner, isn't it? And how can one win in completting a quesstionare? Maybe in that case it really is not the smartest idea to gather participants this way... A challange without a Gem prize, which I wanted to start, would be just a counter and filling the to do's would be a fair reward for everyone. The winners prize part actually complicates a lot.

Thanks, Malkin, maybe I have overhypped with ability to communicate in easier way, not considering a serious side effect.
