If you've followed along on the blog, YouTube, Google +, Facebook, and other outlets I have posted on, there have been a lot of questions submitted..the vast majority overlap, or are the same thing just worded different, so here is a more concise list, sorted for ease of viewing.

GamePlay Questions
