Ask Gauss

It is that time of the week where the day ticks over to Sunday. Also it is that wonderful time of the year where the clocks go back and I get that hour of sleep back that was stolen from me in the spring. So I am awake and refreshed and what a better time to do the Ask Gauss post. For those among us who are clueless about how things work it is the post of the week where I answer some questions that were sent into me. As always it hasn't changed there is a link on the top right of the page or you can just email them to gaussafication@gmail.com. Time to just jump right in

4.3 has a ton of new features coming, over the years which do you think was the best feature added?

Any feature that has saved bag space has been a blessing. Maybe it has to do with the fact I collect everything and it makes that slight amount of space a big deal. I look to Mounts and Companion Pets changed to be in a menu rather than taking up precious space. This basically made it impossible to keep everything. Many time in BC no one carried a ground mount with them, because they just didn't have room for it with everything else they had to take with them. I think though the biggest thing they added to save shape they actually took out recently. You see when the keyring was put in keys were a huge part of the game. You needed them to go pretty much anywhere. Also the 14 slots were the common bag and 16 were rare and 18 were extremely rare. There were times you would head to a dungeon and realize you didn't remember your key to get in. Scarlet Monastery was often common for this, because it used to be a common farming place. You would stand there and wait for someone with a key to come by. Now obviously with keys being phased out the keyring had seen its time, but anyone who lived back then in the times of no keyring knows the pain I am talking about.

How are you hoping Cataclysm will end?

With Deathwing dying. I don't want no redemption nothing even close. This is a dragon that has tried to destroy Azeroth for over 10,000 years. Corrupted or not that is who he is. With the side plots with Thrall and the Aspects I am actually up for anything, although I would love to see Thrall come home to Orgrimmar and reclaim his rightful place. I actually doubt he would ever return to the Horde, and everything would be as it was. A lot has happened and you cannot just flip a switch and everything is back to how it was. On the Alliance side I want Varian to step up more and really be the leader of the Alliance, and if not him then someone else, but it needs to happen to make the plot interesting especially if MoP is going to be an all out war between both sides. That cannot happen without someone at the forefront.

What NPC do you miss the most?

Cairne without a doubt.

There you have it this week's questions answered. Hope you all got something out of it. Now since this Friday is November 11th and in Canada it is known as Remembrance Day the Reader Post is going to be about those NPCs we have lost throughout the year. So submit entries based on that. As always you have until Thursday night to get them in. Enjoy what is left of your weekend!
