As a signed-in-user you can create a story (submit a survey response) that is based on a Manual Headcount.
Dictionary
a Manual Headcount is a number you type directly into Makerble without needing to select the individual contacts whom those numbers relate to. It’s useful for recording approximate amounts, rough numbers or figures you have calculated elsewhere.
There are two ways to do this:
Manual Headcount + Tagged Contacts: i.e. Add approximate amounts alongside progress that is tagged to individual contacts
Manual Headcount only: Only add Approximate Amounts, i.e. do not display the option to tag progress to individual contacts

When you might use Manual Headcount
At a large in-person event
To answer a Survey Question
You are holding an event and use a poll within the event to get people’s responses
You don’t have people’s individual responses but you do know the number of people who provided a particular answer to each question
Using the Anonymous Aggregate mode you can enter the number of people who responded to each Answer Choice of each question
To record how many people were there
You can enter the number of people who were there
You could also include the breakdown by gender, ethnicity or any of your demographic fields
How to analyse survey results that include Manual Headcounts
When analysing your survey results, you can switch between whether you want to see
Only the responses that were entered as Manual Headcounts
