Captain's Log
A Captain's Log Entry is Chris's usual opening to a video blog which first appeared in his 24 September 2008 video. It comes from popular Sci-Fi franchise Star Trek. In a typical episode, the captain, commander or other senior crew member would make an entry to log what has happened in the situation prior to the beginning of the episode. Most Star Trek Captain's Log entries are noticeably void of Tard Rage.
Sometimes Chris gives an incorrect date (the date is technically always incorrect since he says "Stardate" and gives a Gregorian Calendar date), or fails to provide a date at all. An example of Chris giving an incorrect date would be many of the entries made in July 2009. The CWCki has organized the Captain's Log entries by the date they were uploaded.
Chris has never actually seen an episode of Star Trek, and uses the "Captain's Log, Stardate" format as he believes it to be a "good neutral way" of opening a video. He was, however, seen purchasing a Star Trek game as a result of the Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes competition.
Characteristics
Generally, a Captain's Log video is one in which Chris addresses his fanbase, a sort of video blog where he asks his True and Loyal fanbase to be his personal army or to express his hatred about some troll.
This is in contrast to other styles of Chris videos, such as those where he addresses a specific individual (often expecting people to know he's posted a video about them, such as Mike Synder from The GAMe PLACe) or his music videos.
