According to the last post on this page, today is the day we get our five long, essay-like answers on the best questions asked in the thread. There were a lot of good questions in there, and I'm genuinely excited to see some answers (if we're lucky, a couple of them will stick around the thread for a while to clarify stuff).

Anyone else excited? Any speculations about what questions will get answered? Does anyone think my hopes are wildly optimistic?

Late in the day and still no answers?

I dont expect much, most of it will likely be beating around the bush or talking about things of no consequence like "what is your morning routine before work" type stuff

No. "Ask the ____" = politically correct non-answers that only vaguely tell you something. Maybe.

The mods post is contradictory, first he says the answers will be out the next monday, then he says they are coming on friday?

And if we want to go by THAT schedule the answers should have been posted on 1/18/13, and that are 3 days late as is..

If you read the top line it says the answers will be posted by the end of the day next monday, which is today. I share the OP's optimism although it's 6:24 where I am. Not sure when the end of the day is for PGI.

The way I read it, he's saying that this time, it's on this monday (hence the "Answers will be posted next Monday before the end of the day"), but every other time from now on, it will be on a Friday.

Given that theyre limiting it to 5 questions, at least 2 will be "boxers or briefs" (like they always are) and the last round they told us not to ask about CW specifically, no not really

I didn't really want to read an essay about why Garth likes pancakes over waffles, and how literally everything else is "in the works"

Yeah if theyre gonna strangulate the ask a devs to 5 questions every 2 weeks (its funny how many people "like"d that announcement which is insane to me by the way) then they should stop answering the stupid jokes

Ok ok for fairness I did reread the ask the devs 29, found here: http://mwomercs.com/...vs-29a-answers/

Was a lot more informative than I remember, but I don't like that its just Garth answering all the questions. They need to have another one with a different dev.
