    HOW ELSE DO WE STOP THE SPREAD OF TOXOPLASMOSIS IN TAMRIEL?!?!?

    This is the EURIKA moment. Wait for it:

    TOXOPLASMOSIS: infection with the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, transmitted to humans by consumption of insufficiently cooked meat containing the parasite or by contact with contaminated cats or their feces: the illness produced is usually mild, but in pregnant women may damage the fetus.


    We can't kill the cats, Tamriel has no children. See EURIKA, the greatest in game mystery has been solved. I knew I was in the presence of great minds, I now am humbled by how great those minds truly are. ;)
    Follow me if I advance, Kill me if I retreat, Avenge me if I die.

    When this immediate evil power has been defeated, we shall not yet have won the long battle with the elemental barbarities. Another evil, it may be an invisible adversary, will attempt, again, and yet again, to destroy our frail civilization. Is it true, I wonder, that the only way to escape a war is to be in it?

    If I die, you are forgiven, If I live, I will kill you.

    Imao, though this did make me realize something.

    when i saw the first picture, i thought, "oh wow, a picture of the poor thing before they killed it, thats messed up".... I scrolled down slightly and realized "oh wow, and a picture of the bloody mess behind", scrolled down a little more, cow is tipped with a yellow glow around it, "oh nevermind, thats not messed up."

    Where is the bloody mess that should be left behind? Or sir, you did an excellent clean up job.

    This is a conspiracy worthy of Pinky and The Brain.

    Does this mean we won't be able to exterminate cats in 1.6, and we'll still have to fear toxoplasmosis? It seems only the Khajiit and the Bosmer will be left to enjoy the champion system. Makes me want those patch notes even moar!

    Fun story: Word crashed on Gina earlier while she was working on the Update 6 PTS notes. There was a lot of loud cursing.
    Yeah, not my most favorite moment this week.

    My life has been revolving around these patch notes for weeks, so apologies for being largely absent recently! Here's one just for fun:


    As a "pro gamer" who is used to long days of playing without breaks or showers let me make a few suggestions to help get you through those 60 pages of patch notes.
    • Mountain Dew. Boil it so that the water evaporates and all that remains is pure nuclear energy.
    • Hot pockets. Blender them ahead of time into a smoothie. "Pro-tip" Add some Tabasco sauce for a spicy "wake me up" Kick.
    • MadCatz MMO Gaming Diaper. Why waste time when you can save it for later.
    • Which brings me to the final point. Febreeze. Showers are for victories, not maintenance.

    Haha, fuuniest thing I read all day!

    @Shunravi‌ not true. Alfiq and housecats are indistinguishable, not interchangeable. Both exist in the Elder Scrolls world, but only Khajiit are able to tell the difference between one and the other.
    I also doubt an Alfiq would allow anyone to keep it as a pet, much like Senche don't allow themselves to be used as mounts. (With Khajiit being the exception to both.)

    Skyrim had it, don't see why ESO couldn't have it! It would tie in well with spears and polearms. Imagine re-enacting the Ride of the Rohirrim in Cyrodiil!
