THE THREAD FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE NEW ASK LRR QUESTION THREAD

[DrForrester]

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF TOMORROW!

If you guys were plants, what kind of plants would you be, and what kind of zombies would you kill (does not have to be plants and zombies from the game)

Thanks!

[Gordon Fearman]

Have you guys ever considered doing a video podcast and/or streaming it live over ustream? I think that would be cool.

In an anthropomorphic drama, which fruit or vegetable would you say represented a Victorian music hall style villain of moustache-twirling calibre?

[Theremin]

In a similar anthropomorphic drama, what piece of furniture would play the gritty anti-hero with a dark past?

[watshisname08]

Outside of the anthropomorphic drama, Okamiden was announced as the sequel on the DS to the game Okami that Paul, Matt, and a few of you spent endless hours on. It will be a few months after the announcement and I'd like to hear your opinions on it. Should it have been for the Wii? Is it perfect for the DS? Will you guys be spending more hours on this game now?

No, of course. Paul would just be the butler </movie>

There's a long tradition of political and topical comedy groups that have been very successful in Canada, such as the Air Farce and 22 Minutes.

LRR has achieved its current level of moderate online success by dealing with matters such as video games and general sketches that your location in Victoria, B.C., Canada has no effect on (in the cultural context).

Do you think that if you were to focus more on (ostensibly Canadian) political and topical humour, to the exclusion of your tech and nerd based humour, you would receive more views and possibly funding?

If the CBC offered you a regional (West Coast), half-hour weekly sketch comedy slot, on the condition that you focus on such matters, would you take it?

I always see the giant cardboard cutout of Sidney Crosby in your videos, so...
What/who is your favorite hockey team/player? Does/has anyone played organized hockey?

PS: Just listened to the "Magicland" podcast and you were talking about seeing numbers as shapes/colors. For me, when I see two numbers that add to 10, I see them fitting together to make a rectangle of some kind. My obsession with rectangles is also apparent when mowing the lawn, where I MUST cut the strangely shaped edges of the lawn to get a rectangle which i can cut mindlessly and easily. I do the same for Tetris.
PPS: Sorry for the giant wall of text.
PPPS: Go Avalanche.

[Oxford]

I always see the giant cardboard cutout of Sidney Crosby in your videos, so...
Favorite hockey team(s)?
Been to any games?
Favorite hockey players?
Does anyone play/ has played in the past?

(all silly questions for Canadians)

Not quite. Many Canadians do not participate in/have little or no interest in hockey.

Myself, I am a firm "Meh" when it comes to sports. I want them to change it so that you don't get paid if you don't win. The matches would be a lot more intense.

Draw a single continuous line through each wall, without crossing any individual wall more than once.

Also, somehow convey that verbally.

[Machalllewis]

If you had to come up with an interesting question to ask you guys in 10 months time what would it be?

Or alternatively heres a question. If Graham and Paul had never made Unskippable and won that contest on The Escapist do you think you would be where you are now?

[Elomin Sha]

Dear LRR: Which Final Fantasy game had the best overall soundtrack (spin-offs can be included)?

[watshisname08]

Question: Do you think that gamers and the video game industry as a whole is paying TOO MUCH attention to the sales of games rather than the quality of them? Do sale numbers and Metacritic sway your decision to buy a game?

One more question: Define the word "gamer".

[watshisname08]

After listening to the "Is Paul's Boyfriend Cheating?" podcast got me thinking. Do you consider any of your own videos "gay-awesome"? If so which ones?

[Psyclone]

After watching Magicland I sort of re-fell in love with Gibb. Would it be possible at all to buy him? Not from you guys, of course, but do you know where you got him or anything?

[Vigafre]

*This question exploded. Don't worry about it.*

[Trisha Lynn]

Myself, I am a firm "Meh" when it comes to sports. I want them to change it so that you don't get paid if you don't win. The matches would be a lot more intense.

Actually? That would make any game a lot more interesting. Or they get paid minimum wage if they don't win. That'd be kinda awesome.

Oh, and as long as I'm in this thread, here's my question:

Of the "auxillary" LRR cast members, who would you vote to make the next "core" member of the group? This can be based on amount of sheer dedication, available free time, special talents, and/or proximity to weapons that can be thrown at you.

LRR: What global power would you go back in time and conquer if you were given the opportunity with an assurance of success? Global Power during times pre-European colonization of the Americas consist of a power dominating a continent/subcontinent during its peak.

[Theremin]

Finish this famous phrase: "The..."

[Malcolm.Paise]

Which one of the LRR crew is actually an alien in disguise?

[Master Gunner]

I'd guess either Paul or Morgan. Paul because of his technological genius, Morgan because of his "probing".

[Oxford]

I'd let Morgan probe me.
