Increasing the requirements for AQ War Effort supplies

[Boothisphere]

I never did the AQ war effort on live, but is there a large diversity of goods that are required? would it be possible to throw in a curve ball where the handins require something like coarse sharpening stones?

You people puzzle me, but i guess that's mislead nostalgia.

The War Effort in itself is nothing but a collective grind that isn't rewarding to the individual.
(Tell me why should I dump all my Firebloom... yee you do it.)
I will consider myself lucky if the requirements are kept Blizzlike.
(That also ensures that the Battle Tank will be a rather unique mount since you have to finish as fast as possible)

[Setup]

Nost admins have stated that they wish for the war event to be as close to retail as possible.

In determining if they inflate the requirements, the primary question is does this bring us closer Blizzlike?

For reference, the quickest realms to complete the gate event had high populations, and took about 3-4 weeks.

Many of the items on the laundry list of things you need to collect for the gate have increased spawn rates in one form or another, basically anything that's in some way affected by the dynamic respawn.

It's worth remembering (and im sure the staff do) that having twice as many iron bars in circulation on the realm doesn't mean that we'll complete the iron requirement twice as fast.

Go ashenvale , there is enormous iron veins but seems like people avoid that place completely .

Also talking about blizzlike where "high" populated servers there have done it within 3-4 weeks ..... in Nostalrius it will most likely be completed in 1 week or faster with the amount of population.

IIRC my realm (Runetotem-US, mid-pop) took just a tad over 3 months:

A. Medium Pop
B. not many people tried.

At med pop, I can recall us having between 10 raiding guilds on alliance, and I think around the same for horde. That would equate to 800+ 60s.

We might get it done in less than a week here with 12 times that population.

There's no reason to artificially extend the war effort by adding to the supply requirements.
