You’ve obviously had a real life on the side of all of this game, lets talk about your friends and family and pets and all of your hobbies. Ready?

Yeah ready.

What did your parents say and how did they feel when you said, “Mom, I’m going to travel around the world and play in tournaments for a computer game and win money.”

Well obviously it don't start like that. It started out with playing to much, my mom said go outside do something etc, then I went to some local tournaments and qualified for Acon5 cause Grubby couldn't go, so that is where things changed and they were excited since they let me to whatever I want as long as it makes me happy

Do they ever go to any of your tournaments to support you?

Nah it doesn't work like that, my bro once visited a tournament really close to here but he wouldn't travel far either. They got different things to do but of course they stay in touch to hear about my results if I went somewhere etc

What do your relatives think, aunts, uncles, and the younger/older cousins? Do the young ones look up to you and try to play Warcraft?

We don't have a lot of contact with the rest of my family, but the one’s who we do with find it exciting and always ask my mom about my adventures and how I’m doing, but they are all older than me so nothing to look up to.

Tell us a little about your wonderful dogs that are shown in your images. Names, stories, etc.

My mom always liked Akita's, so I basically grew up with them and always liked them. At the moment we got 2 dogs Caya (2 years) and Mataki (11 Years) and well I like them of course. Caya is a little bit different though, she's a Great Japanese Dog which is now renamed to American Akita, but in one way or the other they are the same breed.

What do you plan on doing in the future aside from Warcraft III? What did you want to be as you were growing up?

I've never had a clear picture about this. Several things catch my interest like history, even though my current education is focused on Computers I’m not planning to sit behind a desk for the rest of my life. I've always had a lot of respect for people in the army and I wouldn't have mind to join but I’m not planning to join this any time soon so I guess I will be to late for it. I might study some foreign language to work in a foreign country in the future, something I would like to do I guess.

Have you found your partner yet in life?

Nope, even though I love that girl I see in the Metro every now and then, to bad I’ve got no idea who she is! Hehe nah on a more serious note I’ve got no girlfriend at the moment nor I’m I seeing anyone special. I think it's kinda hard to get a gf atm in this situation, my work/schools takes a lot of time and I wanna use the rest on wc3, if I have to split that for something else also I don't think it will turn into something good.

Do you plan on getting married and having children in the future?

Haha well I’ve got no problem with being alone but I don't think it will be nice to be alone for the rest of your life, so I guess that will happen one day, but no plans for it yet.

In a different interview, you said you dropped out of one school, what happened and where did you go?

Long story, to make it short you can have 2 or 3 bad marks? (Is that the correct word) to pass your school year. We use the system from 1-10 and higher than 5.5 is okay, I had a 5.1 for Math and 5.3 for German, so I did Re-exam for German cause this were 2 fatal items for me and I got a 5.4, kinda unlucky I guess but I also didn't work hard enough for it. I just switched education the result is that it takes longer to reach a certain point, it was bad but well, life goes on and I guess you learn from these things.


Do any of your teachers know that you are a progamer? What about students, have any come up to you asking for an autograph or anything like that?

Some teachers know cause I asked free for several tournaments hehe; they found it very interesting and got respect for it somehow. My classmates who I’m friends with know about it and think its cool, but also say I sit to much behind pc etc hehe, guys who I don't hang out with don't know about it cause I don't tell them so no autographs :).

I don't do any sports atm. Used to play football with friends or inline skating with friends, used to go to big skate parks etc was kinda fun but stopped it somewhere.

Do you have a blog or a myspace?

Nope I don't, well I got msn myspace but not much on it, just some pics.
