Inquisition of the Week: Boardgaming Length

April 9, 2007 by Dave

Greetings all, I have returned from the Gathering of Friends. It seems that in my absence that Bartoneus saw fit to throw my avatar in a royal rumble. The people have spoken: they believe I could hold my own against an Umber Hulk riding a Bulette, even when fighting like a girl. I believe that […]

Inq. of the Week: Showdown

April 2, 2007 by Bartoneus

Last week we determined that it is a parent’s responsibility to teach a child what is right and wrong, and in so doing may responsibly decide what their child gets to watch as far as violence, sex, etc. on tv and in movies.  We also determined that some people dislike the term “melting pot”, that […]

Inq. of the Week: For Violence!

March 26, 2007 by Bartoneus

Last week’s Inquisition turned out a bit skewed, as some one/thing decided to spam vote for Superman 24 times in a row one morning.  Adjusting for this, the end results included 46 votes and I’d like to thank everyone who voted (and didn’t cheat) for participating!  It turns out the most of you (28%) would […]

Inq. of the Week: And Stay Dead!

March 19, 2007 by Dave

Last week’s poll asked you what you thought about men without shirts tossing elephants off cliffs. It was a close race, with ” Very good” pulling slightly ahead of “Awesome!” and those of you who didn’t like it are few and far between. Of course, this isn’t a scientific poll, probably people searching for the […]

Inq. of the Week: Sparta!

March 12, 2007 by Bartoneus

Last week we decided to test another actor vs. self poll, between Saruman the White, Dracula, and Count Dooku.  Out of 30 votes, it looks like 40% of you chose Saruman, 40% chose Dracula, with the remaining piddly 20%  going to Dooku.  I have to agree, while some readers questioned the abilities and frailties of good old fellow Dracul, […]

Inq. of the Week: Lee vs. Lee vs. Lee

March 5, 2007 by Dave

Last week we asked who would win in a fight: the Mutant Master of Magnetism and Manipulation, or some guy in a white dress. For whatever reason, despite my masterful arguments, 75% of you said that the “quasi-god with undefinable powers” would win. But along those lines comes a new potential fight that hopefully should […]

Inq. of the Week: McKellen vs. McKellen

February 26, 2007 by Bartoneus

Last week’s Inquisition asked what your favorite Gaming-related tv show/episode or movie was, and it looks like the majority voted for the excellent episode of Dexter’s Laboratory titled D&DD.  Good choice! This week we are asking perhaps the most important question ever asked in the history of the universe: {democracy:8}  This is probably the greatest showdown […]

Inq. of the Week: Favorite Gaming Movies & TV

February 19, 2007 by Dave

Who would make the best Solid Snake on the Screen? According to you guys, Hugh Jackman would make the best occasionally-runs-around-in-underwear superspy, while previous other Snake Kurt Russell comes in second. Writing yesterday’s review made me wonder the following question, which is another movie question: {democracy:7} In the comments, tell us why you like what […]

Inq. of the Week: Solid Snake Casting Call

February 12, 2007 by Bartoneus

Last week’s poll has come to a close, and disappointingly about a third of you don’t watch Battlestar Galactica so you couldn’t really participate, but I say to you all: Watch the show! I was like you up until January of this year, holding out and not watching for whatever reason. Then the season 1 […]

Inq. of the Week: They Have a Plan

February 5, 2007 by Dave

Last week we asked about what you would give up in order to get some powers and recognition. By a wide majority, most people said that they’d easily give up having a home planet if it meant being a superman. Coming in second, people said that they wouldn’t mind playing second-banana to Mr. Potter. This […]
