The Question-Question Thread

[Randman]

What do you mean by indirect questions?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

A question that is not direct?

 

[Randman]

What?!

 

[bookem]

Who was that directed at?

 

[Randman]

Who?

 

[nixgeek]

Are we talking about the band now?

 

[Randman]

What band?

 

[bookem]

Band Aid?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

Do you mean First Aid?

 

[nixgeek]

Does it come with Kool Aid?

We wouldn't be pathologically unable to deal with indirect questions, would we?

 

[CaptainQuark]

Don't we prefer direct questions?

 

[bookem]

How direct should a question be?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

Ok, if direct questions are desired than one to CaptainQuark: are you really 42?

 

[CaptainQuark]

Yes - why don't you believe me?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

Isn't it quite unusual for a 42 years old man to be a member of an online gamers clan?

 

[CaptainQuark]

Would you believe me if I said that there are guys older than me who are members?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

How successful are those members? Are they fast enough?

 

[CaptainQuark]

Could it be that others think that we are getting a little slower in our dotage, but that we have a far better grasp of strategy and tactics?

 

[Zammy-Sam]

Considering I only know quake and unreal tournament, are tactics of any importance in those 3d games?
