What are your favorite and least favorite things about the new position? Have you been expanding or decreasing your game count, and have you tried any new settings to get a feel for some of the things that updates might be affecting soon?

What is going to be the policy for placing maps into BETA going forward? Will there be a massive delay from time maps are OKed for BETA to when they will actually be uploaded for BETA play?
What is going to be the policy for updating images?
I beleive tnb80 sent one map (Pot Mosbi) and the updated images for Rail Europe over three weeks ago, and as yet no update.

Are there any plans to update chipv's xml wizard for the foundry to make the tool more functional from suggestions?

Are there any other plans for the foundry that nobody knows about yet.
Thanks

Do you intend to try to win back the mapmakers we lost to other sites? Going forward, how do you plan to work with our hardworking, valuable cartographers?

Who owns the site? Are you simply running it as a developer or did you actually buy it? If you bought it, is it just you or a group? How many programmers/developers will be working?

How much time did you take to answer all these questions?
Could that time have been better used for coding?

Have you seen this map by Kabanellas? Will you make the necessary updates that will allow it to be made?

Perma bans: how bad an idea were they? Not just the actual punishment scale, but the manipulation of the community in developing the practice.

Will you allow members to buy smaller amounts of premium. Say 6 months for 15$ and 3 months for 10$?
If you could make a map for the site, what idea/place would you like to do?
Their has been a recent suggestion to make the maps on the site available for the players to play on at home. What would be your thoughts on this and if you like it, how would you go about approaching the map makers and rewarding them for their hard work?

Lack had a good run of 6 years! How far are you looking forward (currently) into developing the site? Where do you see this site in 1, 2, 5, or 10 years?

How familiar are you with the Society of the Cooks (SoC) Training Academy?

Do you have any plans for us?

If so, are they evil plans? Or really evil plans?

What's your long-term plan for the site?

Have you considered other game types that some might compare to certain conquer-the-world games out there?

Have you ever played Shogun/Samurai Swords? How about Axis & Allies?

Besides playing Risk (duh), what other hobbies do you have?

What's your favorite drink?

What are the first three items on your priority list?

Is it true you once shot an elephant in your pajamas?

Would you like to have recieved more interest from the community or do you prefer having missed the critical public eye? :lol:

Do you appreciate long last calls, Jefe?

If you were given the choice of taking or rejecting a one-way trip to populate a Mars Colony, would you accept and go or would you reject and stay here in on Earth?
