Much like how they'd pardon a criminal during the feast of Passover or soldiers would have a one day truce on Christmas day, I hereby allow, limited to this section only, discussion of this Mailbag (which would normally violate [[CWCki:NOTAFORUM|"CWCki is not a forum"]]) as it featured questions from CWCki users and was a HUGE SUCCESS. Consider it an early Christmas present. Also, find an appropriate pic for the intro and this will totally be the featured article. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:56, 10 December 2009 (CET) | Much like how they'd pardon a criminal during the feast of Passover or soldiers would have a one day truce on Christmas day, I hereby allow, limited to this section only, discussion of this Mailbag (which would normally violate [[CWCki:NOTAFORUM|"CWCki is not a forum"]]) as it featured questions from CWCki users and was a HUGE SUCCESS.

* I was pretty surprised of the responses to my two mails (the last ones). The first question was something I was just thinking a few days ago: What weighs more to Chris, important big worldwide causes (like winning the very much upcoming and vicious Console Wars of 2006 and plugging his favourite console) or highly egoistic causes (like getting rid of the gay ads NOW NOW NOW). We see ''hesitation'' here. Chris didn't say "buy the PS3s, dude, PS1 is ancient and I feel your pain", like a normal guy. He didn't say "Sure, buy my ad space for my greater glory", like a complete bastard. The last plug for the Modnation Racers was completely unexpected. I am ''very'' happy to see people use game mods for interesting projects like this, but as the LittleBigPlanet saga taught us, ''I have certain reservations about Chris's project'' if you catch my drift. (Oh, and the Qore plug was ''a bit'' funny in light of all of his previous Hex-Box Live bashing.) --''[[User:Wwwwolf|wwwwolf]]'' <span style="font-size:smaller;">([[User talk:Wwwwolf|wake me when you need me]])</span> 02:38, 11 December 2009 (CET) | * I was pretty surprised of the responses to my two mails (the last ones).

Everybody who contributed should give their letter a custom title.
Do it. --Beat 04:03, 10 December 2009 (CET)
What do you mean? The Darwin letter was mine. --Kwippleton 05:18, 10 December 2009 (CET)
- I mean like I just did for my letter, the one about books. Come up with a subtitle for your letter so we can link to it. --Beat 06:53, 10 December 2009 (CET)
Woah.
I'm actually fairly surprised... I think that his answer to my email was actually fairly well done, although his justification of Rosechu's facerape was stupid as usual. To be honest, I figured he'd just write a sentence for all of these letters... Not bad. --Kwippleton 07:21, 10 December 2009 (CET)
