Oddworld forget alf, i wanna speak with the raisin

i think we should be able to ask the raisin questions, seeing how he is the resident elderling and might have a better, more forthright means of answering the question (provided he can stay awake long enough) it might be a nice change for the site revamp that they are doing.

Well, yes, that's a pretty good idea. But I prefer Alf answering the questions because he does it with humor, and makes it enjoyable to read the replies. I don't think the Raisin is that humorous. But that is a very good idea, don't get me wrong.

Interesting idea. But I like Alf just fine and I don't think the Almighty Raisin would waste his time on us anyways.

Personally I don't think the Rasin would ever fully answer our questions, he'd probably just fall asleep in mid sentence.

Besides, the Raisin might fall asleep, before he finishes answering the question.

I like it just the way it is with Alf. I don't think the Raisin answering questions would be so interesting.

I like Alf, he makes the answers to the questions funny, and he always handles the occasion annoying letters really well.
The Raisin's ok, but he's really old and doesn't have much of a sense of humour, plus he can't type (no hands!).

You know I think the Big Face really never got as much as the spotlight as the rest of the Oddworld Mr. know it all's. I mean he helped Abe on his quest and gave him the power of the Shrykull. Alf is great but what did he do? He was with Abe in the desert when he drank his first brew. Oh don't get me wrong Alf is cool and all I just would like to see more of the Big Face. Of all the wise Mr. Know It All's in the Oddworld games, The Big Face is my favorite and I think he should take the stage for us fans. There should be a small page in the site for the Big Face where you can talk to him and ask questions too. Like Dear Alf it should be called "Ask Big Face!" Infact the idea isn't that bad with the Raison. Maybe there should be a small seperate page for all three. For those who want to talk to the Raison and for those who want to talk to The Big Face, and dear Alf. That might be a good idea I dunno.

well the point is... alf has time to spend, Big Face not, he has to do other things. seems logic to me.

Well I too like Big Face alot and was dissapointed when he wasn't in future games but I still enjoyed the new characters, it kinda seems we get some new mystical Oddworldians in each game, Big Face- AO, Three Weirdos- AE, Rasin- MO. However Alf is unique, he's just your average everyday shmuck with a cool adventure and cool shop to add on his resume. I do admit it would be cool to have the others answer our questions but I still would rather prefer good ol Alfie.
