Many of his spending decisions boggle the mind. He has, for instance, spent around $30 on nothing but furniture and character clothing for ''PlayStation@Home'', Sony's universally-panned ''Second Life'' knockoff. Nearly $20 went towards new characters and ball designs for ''High Velocity Bowling'' (which didn't stop him also buying two more PlayStation bowling games). The bill for his [[LittleBigPlanet]] downloads, of course, hardly bears thinking about.
 
Since his PSN purchases are paid for with a credit card, they are responsible for the lion's share of Chris's deepening debt.

The SingStar Challenge was a video competition phase of the CWCivil War, initiated by Solid Chris. Previously, Solid (posting under the YouTube handle IBAChandler) had attempted to reestablish his TRUE and HONEST identity with videos showcasing his multiple talents. This cunning plan backfired miserably, as Liquid Chris (posting as CChanSonichuCWC) outdid Solid's talents in his own videos. This included playing More Than a Feeling on a real guitar, shaming Solid's Guitar Hero rendition. Butthurt that Liquid had an actual talent, Solid recognized that the clear solution was to formalize the contest, thus eliminating such dirty tricks.

The challenge would have a unique legacy among Christory, as it cemented the popular image of Liquid Chris as a relatively "harmless" troll in the eyes of many fans who look at the Classic Era with rose-tinted glasses. Years later, fans would recreate the story of the challenge as a mod to the ever-popular online rhythm game Friday Night Funkin'. Chris would eventually create his own spiritual successor after his extended stint in jail, challenging the vocals of an artificial intelligence version of his voice that could sing popular songs instead of Liquid Chris.
