Should this be linked to Questions for Chris or should this get its own page? It seems like it will be a recurring feature. Thoughts? --Champthom 02:50, 29 December 2009 (CET)

Looks redundant for me. It would make a nice sub-section to Question For Chris. Griffintown 04:47, 29 December 2009 (CET)
Not yet. The Questiosn for Chris page is outdated and this will become recurring...hopefully. Clydec 05:01, 29 December 2009 (CET)
I have to revise my position. I saw that the Common Questions on CWCipedia got it's own entry. This make it a bona-fide historical document and need to receive it's own entry. Sorry to flip-flop on this but this is just how I see the situation now. Griffintown 05:57, 29 December 2009 (CET)
i could put a picture of my dick on cwcipedia so it becomes bona-fide. but yeah, right now i'm just stealing all the questions from that page for now. soon, i'll throw some of the mailbag in there as well while the major e-mails get put into the mailbags. so this might become the new mailbag. or something.

Please warn me the day you will post your Bona-Fide Phallus on CWCipedia; I want to do a screen capture of it. :D This being said, I love the Mailbag format and These questions would fit in it easily. Griffintown 07:00, 29 December 2009 (CET)
I'm honestly not digging the mailbag format here. It really works better for letters with actual length. Is the format from Questions for Chris really that bad?--Beat 18:58, 30 December 2009 (CET)
  • Yeah, why not use that format? --Champthom 22:28, 30 December 2009 (CET)

Why not Using the Mailbag Format?

I mean, why not? Chris is answering questions from the public and the said answers are not that longer than the conventional mailbag. Besides, Black on White Q&A is quite hard on the eyes to read. Another arguement; there's no clutter of answers everywhere. These bit-sized pieces of text would be easier to quote and link that way. Griffintown

I'm sorry man, I just can't agree with you on this one. The Big boxes take up too much space and are visually distracting for these single-line questions and answers. They look fine when you're doing huge mailbag things, but here they just look off.
There's nothing preventing us from using the format seen on the Questions for Chris page. I've personally never found the black and quite Q&A hard to read, and honestly, if you find it hard on your eyes, maybe you should consider scaling up the font size in your browser.--Beat 08:48, 31 December 2009 (CET)

"Video games out right now"

In answering one of the questions from yesterday (22 February), Chris replied that he'd like to play Heavy Rain and God of War III but hasn't yet had the chance. It's worth noting here - if not beside his answer in the page proper - that Heavy Rain is shipping today (23 February), and God of War III isn't shipping until three weeks from now (16 March).
