Have been thinking, what if the first episode of CQTLQ was an IWAD then the other episodes where PWADs, like the hole second episode was a PWAD that ran from the main IWAD that had the first episode.
Tell me what you think about this idea.

hmm...like a shareware release? one episode only, then you gotta buy/download the other two? (if you could get it to work like that, it would be PWNZ!)

for that, I should say somewhere between yes and indifferent...

but it makes sense, try it

I was more thinking of having it split up so you don't have to download one big WAD every time theres a release.

plus, if its only an IWAD and one pwad, no spagheti, just make sure you dont hilight every single wad when you click and drag, rite? or if you do batch work, theres no WAY that could happen! ><

He's saying that it would save time for members here that use dial-up, and that is true, but only for the short term, and the end result is that the total package would actually use more space that if it were just one IWAD, and the prior advantage of quicker downloads for the separate episodes would be almost completely lost once the mod reached a state of "near-completion" with few updates left.
