already emailed some but ill try and think up more.

I would say yes to keeping it going, it really is an excellent way of getting the audience involved in the podcast (aside from writing articles etc). Although if something was to replace that would bring in the audience into the podcast in a similar fashion then that would be good as well.

If you combine the QotW and the trivia segments, I think that would work the Cast out of a funk

 No-ooo! Don't take it away! I love this segment! Keep it! It's a keeper, for sure. I love this segment, because it makes me think. Think about angles of the show. Parts that I would never have thought to look closer/deeper into. In order to come up with an answer, I listen ( intently) to the question, then think. And pace up and down my floor, *giggles* until I come up with an answer. So please, do not let this segment go. I thank you, for your consideration in this matter.

...the Q of the week is one of my favorite parts of the Scapecast

..i love having the question as it gives me a topic to think about while i'm busy doing things i'd rather not do and it helps me define myself in the honest answer i come up with

...i love hearing the answers from others who feel so passionatly about the FS story...i don't feel so alone and also makes me be nicer to people i meet as they too could harbor the same feelings of FS and i just don't know it yet

We're glad to hear that folks enjoy the QotW segment.

The problem we're having is coming up with good questions to ask so if folks have ideas please share them.


Thanks,

Kevin

I concur with everyone else. I always enjoy the QoTW segment and the trivia as well. I also enjoyed this episode's discussion between Brent & Sami (hopefully I am not misremembering) and I would enjoy hearing more such discussions in the future. I have a couple of suggestions for Questions:

1. Favorite Chritonisms
2. Favorite DRD moment

Sorry if these are repeats but the 92 question list is a bit daunting.

If you're running out of material, how about reading new answers to previously asked questions? I think it's time for a massive round of that. I know I've left a bunch of answers to past questions and they have yet to be read.

Have no good QotW come out of the "Suggest a "Question of the Week"" forum? I do believe that it is there for just this specific reason? Of course it does help to prompt us audience members for them as well.

The Scapecast Crew does a great joerb. However, they do have a weird firewall against good questions they consider "fan-ficky" because they fear the show's creators will run away if they did run them.

That should be "job." I would say they do a fantastic job myself.

I hope this question isn't too "fan-ficky": Constraining ourselves to the material contained in Peacekeeper Wars, how do you think what would have been the David Kemper final episode? What would be the A story? What would be the B story? Do you think it would have been a two-hour/two-parter?
