Default Character Slots

Ok, I just want a simple answer then it can get closed so it doesn't turn into people whining.
2 Quick questions,

1) How many character slots will purchasing a nightfall key give us?

Guild Wars Nightfall Bonus Key, providing one additional character slot for a Guild Wars Nightfall account plus two unique in-game items—the Fiery Sunspear of Shelter for the Paragon and the Icy Soulbreaker of Enchanting for the Dervish
Guild Wars "Play Now" key for a 10-hour/14-day trial of Guild Wars Prophecies and Guild Wars Factions
A mini strategy guide, describing the history of Elona and detailing the attributes of the Dervish and the Paragon
Concept art, screenshots, in-game renders of characters and items, preview trailer, wallpapers, quick reference card, music, and more
2) If I'm reading this right do we get an extra slot on top of the 'x' we will get from a nightfall key if we purchase the Nightfall Prerelease Bonus Pack?

Thanks in advance.

1) 2, just like Factions

2) Yes, it is "on top of" the 2 you get with the game. Making 3.

I added my pre-release key to my existing Gw account and didn't notice an extra slot? Will this be made available only after adding the final game key?

I just want to ask something.

Where does it say we will get 2 more slots when we merge?

Is this official?

Just because factions gives us 2 doesnt mean nightfall will give us 2.

Hmm thats odd, I figured that the extra slot would activate with the preview weekend from the pre release pack, that way we can make a new Nightfall character. Kinda sux because I dont have any free slots to try out a new character

Gaile or Alex said it somewhere and it was quoted... but I cant find it right now. But the wiki says the same thing and has a link to confirm it, a little ways down that page.

All that wiki confirms is that the pre-order bonus pack thing gives One additional slot

Theres no mention of how many slots merged or non-merged in any of those links on that wiki page.

Find me the Gaile or Alex quote.

It isnt our jobs to look old news up for people that came in too late.

Especailly ones being so condescending about it like we are rodents to you unless we can spend all of our time on the internet proving known facts to you.

Thats why there are resources for you to use.

Its the the August 31st, 2006 visit if you REALLY want to know though

you guys dont appreciate a devil's advocate, nor do you know how to argue.

I apologize to Cloudpiercer for sounding so pushy, but i didnt flame anyone or condescend.

You give me your evidence. I retort.

-----------------

My point remains.

This is important information and should not be something assumed and the answer is not easily found on the official or guru or wiki website.

This is on our FAQ now, no point in continuing arguing about it being old news and such.

Closing.
