  I would like GB to go white because of the following reasons. 

  1. Black letters over white background is easier to see. I really don't know why they are using grey text in quotes and headlines. 
  2. I think it would look awesome.
  3. The black background reminds me too much of gamespot...I feel so violated for saying that name. I think I will take a shower now.

I would like the white design, i can read that without my eyes straining or blurring. My eyes often start to blur if i have to read a long wall of white text on a blackish background.

I agree. I would like to see the site in white every once in a while for a bit of variety and flavor, but in the end I would leave it on black most of the time.

Before the site had a redesign users always had the choice to switch between black or white backgrounds, that same choice will still be available once the white background for the site is released.
 
For the record I find a darker background on sites to be easier on my eyes. With that explained I'm going to lock this down, there really isn't much that could be discussed here as everyone will have the option to go either White or Black for their background once the white version of the site is finished :)
