It's wasn't best anime editor, it was True anime editor. There is a significant difference. And it's Brad. It's always been Brad and always be Brad. I will have a physical altercation with anyone who disagrees. VIOLENT CRIME!!!!

Edit - also a hamburger is not a sandwich. It is one level above sandwich.

Props to whoever designed this questionnaire; having some short and funny questions from time to time made it way easier for me to finish it.

And no, hamburger =/= sandwich.

Yea it's great that even a survey on this site can make me laugh.

I agree a hamburger is not a sandwich. Brad is the one true anime editor. Also I feel like the "There's not enough swearing on the site" one is to settle some kind of internal debate, there's always room for more swearing.

The real problem here was the lack of a "tralse" option though.

If you didn't vote Brad as the True Anime Editor your survery was discarded because you have not been paying attention.

I also loved the part where I could vote that I wanted the site content to be "less family friendly". I did that.

It's Brad and no, a hamburger still is not (and will never be) a sandwich.

Also I want all the fucking swearing I can get!

And I want a new Breaking Brad. (Everyone not writing that in the "why did you rate Giant Bomb x?" field is wrong.)

I answered the questions but I forgot to say that the site navigation is horrendous. The video content needs to be organized in a MUCH better way. Try finding videos from a few e3s ago, good luck using the search bar. I wish you could tag videos based on an event or the type that it is and then only see those videos in an organized way. I don't need a thumbnail taking up space, give me the option to hide that and give me a list of videos so I can find the one I want. The whole system is just a mess. There's so much great content on here but it's too hard to find unless you know exactly what you are looking for.

Brad is, was and will always be the anime editor. A hamburger is without a shade of a doubt a sandwich. How could it not be? It's meat/a substitute + whatever you choose to dress it with literally sandwiched between two pieces of bread. That's an open and shut case. A tuna melt is no less a sandwich because its ingredients are treated specifically and it has its own name. I believe this with my whole heart and it is clearly very important business.

The swearing question was a little weird. Just another goof or a legitimate concern somebody, somewhere has?

Or you use the qlcrew website. They should just buy that website and implement its functionality into GB. Most importantly if you view a stream with multiple games (like every Unprofessional Fridays) you can't see what games are in it or the timestamps. I get that this site is personality driven, but I would like to know what games are in a video before I view it, or at least have the option. I like some content more than other and I especially am not interested in watching footage of a story-driven game I know I'm planning to play, so being to navigate around that would be a huge upgrade.

Hamburger is not a sandwhich. I chose to answer the anime editor with the one guy who actually cares about anime, namely Jason. Man, anime sucks.

It is absurd that the workaround for 'this site feature is broken' is 'use this other third-party site that does it better.'

It is obviously true that hamburgers are sandwiches and that Brad is the True Anime Editor.

I honestly assumed those questions were there so the survey could discard the results of crazy people who think that just because the filling of a sandwich happens to be a beef patty it is suddenly not a sandwich (through magic? I don't even know) or have some crazy view about DAN being the True Anime Editor.

Did Brad get fired/retire or announce a job change within the site? No. So how could anyone but him be the True Anime Editor? It doesn't make sense.

Please God let everyone answer that the new video player is important. So funny to hear Jeff blow up Flash's spot when the site still uses it. Must be frustrating for him and the crew, hopefully it makes the docket for things to do soon.

A hamburger is 100% a sandwich. I chose Jeff as the Anime editor, just to see if they were paying attention, because it's totally Brad. I was hoping when I selected Jeff, it would reprimand me for a wrong answer, but ,alas, it did not.

The site needs WAY MORE SWEARING, and far less family friendly content!!!

And, when asked why I rated Giantbomb so highly, I responded with " because it hella rips!!!!!"

You can just select HTML5 in the current the player, you know.

My priority would be moving beyond 720p. I know Jeff has said this is expensive, but if we're compiling a wish list it should be there.

I voted for the new video player for sure. I know there's obstacles to overcome there that are still outside their influence (especially when it comes to Flash, but even if you choose HTML5 the player can suffer), but anything that could be done to help keep framerates for videos high would be great.

The video player is messed up in firefox for me. It always starts hitching whether it's html5 or flash. I use youtube whenever possible because it fixes the issue but the premium content isn't on youtube so I have to keep restarting my browser.

For me, the absolute top two things that need to be improved are:

1. Video search functionality and tagging
2. The video player
3. The video quality. I'm rocking a 1440p monitor now and these 720ps just aren't cutting it anymore

I'll be honest. I said Berserker because I like that class just slightly more than Bio Engineer. Also I had to read the name of the game twice because I didn't think anyone spoke of that game any longer... I have too many hours logged on that game.

I answered "not even in the game yet" because I think if Denis Dyack doesn't know then who would?

Reading the old threads about Too Human, I think I mixed up Defender and Berserker. Berserker is the class that dies all the time because of no defense.

Let me take the test again!

I spent more time pondering that 'One True Anime Editor' question than I'd care to admit.

Bio-engineer is obviously the best Too Human Class, but I admit I'm working with shaky memories.

On the important questions.

For the one true anime editor. I know the answer is Brad but I choose Jason. He deserves the title and must overthrow Brad to take his rightful place.

My favorite too human class isn't in the game yet. It's that any hoe killa.

Hamburgers are not sandwiches. I get how you could be confused here. I ran the DNA analysis and I can tell you this a a case of convergent evolution. The humble sandwich evolve when bread grew meat and vegetable like organs in side itself. While the hamburger evolve from the hamburger steak which evolved bun like appendages.

- Is a hamburger a sandwich?

Yes.

- Who's the True Anime Editor of Giant Bomb?

Brad

- Is there too much swearing on Giant Bomb?

No

- What's your favorite class in Too Human?

"It hasn't been announced, yet."

- Dennis Dyack

(Although, I played Defender for more than 200 hours. The only way to minimize overly long Valkyrie ascensions.)

- What changes would you like to see on Giant Bomb?

Higher resolution videos. Higher resolution videos. Higher resolution videos.

These are the answers to the survey, if anyone was interested in a study guide. I've been majoring in Giant Bomb since its inception, and am fully versed in Arrow Pointing Down, if anyone questions my credentials. Online courses are also available.

I asked for the video and article content to be less family-friendly.

Also, according to a 1960s McDonald's ad, hamburgers ARE sandwiches.

sandwich

[sand-wich, san-]

noun

1. two or more slices of bread or the like with a layer of meat, fish,cheese, etc., between each pair.

I think by definition a hamburger is a type of sandwich.

While i agree (and did answer it in the survey), it isn't hard to look for videos for an event. If you want a video from E3 2013 for example, just go to the video section of the concept page.
