CW3323 Post-War Interview With Scott Abbott #468961 By John Ringo #899287

GG: Welcome Scott to The Galaxy Gathering studio. Can I offer you a drink from the wet bar before we get started?

Scott: Whiskey sour please sir.

GG: *Pours a few large glasses and hands one to Scott* To your heath sir *Smile*

GG: For the record what is your name, player ID, clan you fought with this last CW and what medal did you win?

Scott: Scott Abbott #468961  of the CLAN: Northwind Dragons – Gold.

GG: Did your team perform like you expected this war?

Scott: Yes.

GG: Was there anything you found to be a surprise this war?

Scott: The amount of effort various clans are using to try to beat various Dragon clans.  I like it.

GG: It does keep things fresh and exciting.

GG: Was there anything you found to be a disappointment this war?

Scott: No.

GG: This war every clan needed a SRB specialist to get in the game. We have had a required spec now for the last two wars. Do you feel this requirement improves or takes away from Clan Wars?

Scott: I like it, it would be great if he could implement some other features similar to the changes he has made recently.

GG: Did you have anything specific in mind?

Scott: No sir, I do not.

GG: Ok I was just checking. The Dev's read these interviews and welcome the feedback *Smile*

GG: The pilots who ran the required SRB spec this war earned (2) 2X upgrade kits. Does this extra prizing improve Clan Wars and should be continued?

Scott: I like the extra prizes, it adds an extra element of taking a specified spec that you might not want, and getting rewarded for it.

GG: How hard was the Raid for your team?

Scott: It was a good amount of hard points to make it challenging, yet not overly hard to hurt the lower level players from participating.

GG: Sounds like the balance was just right.

GG: Are the Raid Prizes this war useful for your team or do you just sell most of it for needed Niodes?

Scott: It was really good.

GG: What is your favorite mech that you own and why?

Scott: Tie between the Boreas and Fext.  They both have really good jobs they do well and both seem to be near the top of every ones wish list
GG: Yes sir. You would be right on that.

GG: What is your favorite thing about Clan Wars?

Scott: The competition and the rivalry between key clans.

GG: In your opinion, what needs to be fixed to make Clan Wars better?

Scott: I'm the wrong person to be asking that particular question lol.

GG: If you say so *Grin*

GG: Before we wrap this up is there anything you would like to add?

Scott: Many thanks to all my Dragon brothers for sticking it out with me, to the Dev team and to Baruch and anyone helping him to keep the competition alive.

GG: Thanks for taking the time to talk with me today. It was a pleasure as always. My best to you and your crew.


Scott: Thank you sir. And I wish your team well as well!
