The final interview can be found here: https://www.smitefire.com/smite/forum/news/community-spotlight-branmuffin17-58510

As said, this thread will remain open for Bran to reply to any questions which remain unanswered (if he wishes to do so). Any other feedback for me (regarding the questions asked, format of the interview, etc.) is of course also more than welcome :)

Bernardozomer & Techno: (Location and chicken stuff)

Technotoad64:

How fast is your internet? (Who's your internet service provider? Do you think they'll slow you down or charge you extra now that the internet lost its title II classification?) I have basic cable through Time Warner/Spectrum. It's 50 Mbps down, 5 Mbps up,
though actual steady numbers seem to be closer to 60 down and 6 up. I own my own modem rather than rent from the provider, and have a Netgear X6 (R8000) router. Will they charge me extra due to the net being reclassified as a version of Title I? Hmmm...over time, that's what I'd start to expect, but I don't see it happening quickly if this really does continue on its current course.
A quick change would cause rioting =) Though they've lost the recent battle, I have hopes that Net Neutrality will win the war.
What time of day do you usually play Smite? Basically only at night after my kids have gone to bed.
Do you have any mannerisms? (Examples would be waving your hands around when you speak, saying a specific word very often, or grinding your teeth when you're nervous.) I guess I'm pretty animated when I talk in person, with hand gestures, facial expressions, etc. I'm generally a pretty social guy and use these for effect. In game, I often talk less unless I'm explaining something.

As for common words I use...actually, regularly, dude...I'd have to think of more.

ThePerfectPrism:

Any tips on being more organized and objective? These are two drastically different things! Organization is just a habit that, if it's not natural for you, has to be sort of forced. I suggest using some basic tools depending on the subject...if it's just daily schedule, use Google Calendar. Share it with others if you often schedule based on each others' schedules. If it's other things, well, usually it's about using simple tools easily accessed...give me an example and maybe I can offer a suggestion =)

Being objective can be a habit, but I'd say is more of a mindset. You don't have to be objective about everything...if it's something you're passionate about, and it's appropriate to apply your opinion, more power to you. But if it's about needing to see both sides, you need to learn to step back and consider both positions...basically "put yourself in their shoes." It's great to be protective of friends, for example, but things aren't always black and white, and just staunchly supporting them, rather than having a possible chance to have them think a bit differently (or to calm down before making rash decisions) can also show that you're being a friend.

When we have our guide contests, for exmaple, I fully employ objectivity. I'm excited for friends to enter, but absolutely will not give them bonus points, as can be seen in past contests.
If you got transformed into an animal, which represents you as a person, which animal would it be? (Weird but I like to ask ppl this mostly cuz they normally don't understand the question correctly lol) In the Chinese calendar (I'm not Chinese, just using the reference), I'm a horse. I'd like to think that maybe I'd be one if I was transformed. They can put their heads down and do the job when they need to, but given the freedom, they'd run and frolic and roll in the grass (yes, dogs and cats aren't the only ones to roll). They can be very loyal, and uh...I dunno. A horse. Does that answer satisfy you?

Overld1: ---> Fun Question: Do you really love us? Yes, ld1, I do. You're all special in my eyes. =) I do really appreciate the community we have here.
