Q: Do you believe you can get the TUIT rights within the next 5 years? (One can always ask... )

Agreed, although some of these are more trivial than others, they also seem to require more or less one sentence answers. Unless Tom is short on time I don't see the problem in asking.. That said, we probably want to prioritize our questions incase he can't stay long.
Inspired by Lava's semi-recent thread:
Q: Do you think Keen as a series could be profitable and/or popular in today's gaming climate?
Building off Keenrush's question,
Q: To what extent have the rights to Keen or creative control been sought after? What is the main obstruction? Does the near future look any different in terms of finally getting a hold of Keen?

Sent.I'm from a small Commander Keen forum called PCKF, and we'd all be really totally psyched if you managed to find some free time eventually to come down to our IRC channel (irc.foonetic.net #pckf) and come answer a few questions for us. It'd be pretty much the best thing ever, and we've also got some things to show you that you might (or might not) be interested in.

That is true if we want to make ourselves look like a bunch of retarded kids. Again, those questions ceilick just made up sound very legit. Questions such as "why is there an apple in keen dreams" are just plain stupid sorry.Nospike wrote:I disagree. Yes, Ceilick's questions are certainly the most frequently asked ones. However, as you can see, everyone wants to ask a different question, and you can't just say that these are stupid.

I'm much more curious about Tom's old ideas, sketches, and scrapped material from previous or unfinished Keen titles.
Any questions along those lines would be great.
It would be nice if the man got involved in the community and continued developing the Keen universe, even if no official games come from it.
You know, give us a peek at his old journals and whatnot.
