But there's no "Realign Blue Dots" button?
Admin
Yes, it's common for emailed surveys to ask for your email address, since the emailed survey request can be forwarded to multiple recipients, and you want to know who is actually filling out the survey 🙂
Edit Admin
I dun get it, it says Innsbruck. That's the capital of Tirol.
Edit Admin
Innsbruck is overlayed on an "F" in the underlying image in just the right spot. Marketers love this one clever trick to get people to notice your info.
Genius idea, create bugs in your implementation and let the users fix them. Less sprint tasks!
Edit Admin
And they have not one but two buttons to realign the green dots. Just in case you want to do that from the top of the page or the bottom of the page, it's that important!

Realign Frist Comment

Your problem is the e-mail format. It should be: [email protected] HTH!
Edit Admin
If one of my friends forwarded a survey to me, they aren't much of a friend. I get spammed enough by the vendors themselves, I don't need other people helping them.
But they probably also send out links to the survey by SMS or other methods. While it would probably be possible to generate custom links for email that auto-fill this field, it's hardly worth it.

They need a Realign the “Realign the Green Dot” Buttons button.

The other thing is that the email is a survey directed to Doctorate Recipients. I took that to mean that they emailed someone at their .edu/school address, and since they've graduated the school is trying to find out out to reach them in the future at their personal/professional email address.
Maybe it's just in the US where universities have students use school-managed email services for communication instead of personal/third-party addresses. (Eliminates risk of non-delivery/receipt disputes between the school/faculty/staff and students.)
Edit Admin
Even simpler, the survey may have been sent to an old address which isn't your preferred one.

I sense some floating point math in the seating screen. I'm thinking of a scene of my Kerbal in a spacecraft that is many completely disjoint pieces yet still somehow flies.
