Will I still be alive when the new FAQ is published? Because I am over 30 years old!
Seriously, any news about this?
Will I still be alive when the new FAQ is published?
I think the common hope is to have them revealed (and released) in the coming Miskatonic Horror box (and thus available on line from june). Fingers crossed!
That would really be ideal, especially considering what Miskatonic is . I suppose they may want to wait for questions to trickle in about Miskatonic though. This would allow them to publish the FAQ online so that everyone could have access.

Well in all likely hood by the time us 30-somethings are in our 60s and 70s advancements in the manipulation of DNA helicasing may extend our expected lifespan by enough to just make it to the release of the FAQ.
Even if they do release the FAQ, it's mere release will lead to more questions, which will then necessitate another FAQ, which will then raise more questions, etc. The best we can hope for is that there may be a convergence (i.e. each release will have only half as many new additions as the previous one). But wait: they keep releasing expansions which themselves begat questions ...
Remember that this FAQ project first started up before Black Goat was released. Clearly there have been numerous releases since then.
Releasing the current version now and raising more questions is still better than not releasing it at all.

I've replied to a similar thread before and still insist that the single best solution is to have an online 'living' FAQ and any reprints/expansion can simply say go to www.whatever
Way cheaper than providing many glossy pages of FAQ that will raise twice as many questions again.
"But what if I draw THIS encounter in the Dreamlands, with THAT Environment in play when I'm using every expansion board? Do I still have to clean my room, because my Mum says I do..."

I'm definitely in favor of releasing it ... I'm just addressing the issue that it will never be done. But yes, some FAQ is better then the FAQ we have.
And when it is finally released, where will we find it? Also, who's writing it? Will it be an FFG release, or will it be released by a fanbase?
