This is the questions thread for the next podcast. So if you've got any questions burning a hole in your pocket, please feel free to ask.
I should be answering these sometime next week, then probably take a week off for Christmas. It's going to be crazy enough without worrying about finding somewhere quiet to do a podcast :)
Cheers!
Kinak

Yay podcast time!
Why are there not etheric versions of the wall turrets when all the other robots turn to crazy etheric stuff?
Stream of Needles seems to chain with 4-5-? and also 8-?. Are there multiple copies of the technique with different chain numbers?
Would it be a false assumption to think that all Etheric attacks use Will as the associated stat?
How is (did?) the christmas stuff turing out?
Are there still undiscovered forms of the crystalline flame? No tier 2 upgrade without either of the fae/ocean sight skills?
Are any opponents psychic? That is to say they pick their techniques after seeing what techniques I've already chosen?
What determines opponents HP? Just a number you manually enter in the database or is it based on their stats the same way it is for us?
Why did you decide to put the age warning on the character creation screen? I'd imagine that there's a big market in the 14-18 year olds who have large amounts of free time to waste on the internet.

Will there be / are there plans for (more?) Etheric techniques that don't consume turns of Etheric? It's hard to use an etheric deck when you burn through the energy so quickly with every little technique.

Are the ornaments just amusing decoration, or do they do something? (Do you ever do anything just for amusing cosmetic effect?)

- Why can't I beat these annoying Legion guys up to a bloody pulp? Or at least tell them that distributing tracts that nobody ever reads to the same person again and again is not very eco-friendly? D:
- Is there anything major we haven't found about the crystalline flame yet?
- Have you managed to dedicate some brain cycles to the survivors' quest lately, with the Christmas content going on?

How many Walk with the Blind would be considered by you to be enough to warant quests for the blind legion?
How many of those books are already out there?
Why did you choose fire out of the possible elements as the one to get a separate power listing??
Any chance of us getting som icecreams or ice cubes from ghoulbiting a snowman next year??

Stealing and changing Al's question: "Any chance of us ever being psychic (temporarily)? That is to say seeing some or all of the technique(s) the enemy is going to use before we choose ours?"
What did you want to be when you were little?
Why do you think three of the most prominent gangs have animals in their names (Hounds, Penguins, and Jumbucks)?
Did you enjoy your week off for Christmas?
Do you think you'll ever implement another type of techniques, and how did you arrive at the current neat system?
Which aspects/elements of the game are you happiest with/proudest of? And which the least?
Favourite ice-cream flavour?

Is there a good reason that Walk with the Blind is a quest item? Or, will there be in the future?
Is there, at present, anything neat with the book of sailing stories that we have yet to find?
I kinda feel like at the moment, credits kind of don't have any worth. You need more moneysinks in the game like the halloween event, or even just moneysinks in general, as well as expensive stuff to buy from npcs, preferably consumable. At the moment, there's not really a whole lot to spend credits on, and so whatever value the creds have just kind of continues devaluing. Unless there's some stuff like this in the survivor's quest, in which case rock on.

Oh, yeah, I totally meant to ask this too. Maybe Wyrd is already psychic.

The content is great, but the game mechanics are what make Metroplexity awesome. Do you have an inspiration/creativity process, such as standing on your head and blasting loud classical music? Or more simply, how do you get your ideas? Do you have tons and tons of ideas and the task is rather to weed them out? Do they spring fully-formed or do you have a vague idea that you need to refine for weeks?

Want to tell us when the Snowman competition will end?
If so, when? :)
Ignore this question if the competition's end precedes podcast, of course.
Not sure if this was asked before, oh wait, yes, but it was in reference to the reset board I think, anyway, will you preserve boards like the snowman competition one (like the Cannon Museum stores things in KOL) after events end? Maybe I'm confusing your podcast with theirs…
-Any podcasts you listen to?
