Hi Spx, please introduce yourself to our readers.

- Hi! My name is Mike and I guess im your average 21yr. old guy - working chilling and playing cs =)

You have three roles; clan owner, team founder and ingame leader, how does it feel to be so important for everyone?

- Feels great, having it this way leaves only one person to blame if things go bad, and thats myself! I like having the responsibility

What has been your biggest success/dissappointment in your esport carreer?

- Finishing 2nd at ESWC 2005, and finishing 2nd at ESWC 2005 ;)

Which teams do you think will be in the top3 in 2006?

- SK, 3D and NiP

You are attending the SHG Open, what are your expectations for this event?

- We started out by aiming for a top5, that might seem abit to much right now, but thats still our main goal, but its hard to predict, its gonna be a tough tournament with a lot of good teams attending.

Are you planning to attend other events such as ESWC or the CPL World Tour?

- Hopefully, I mean we are going to Dallas this Summer and hopefully attending the Danish ESWC qualifier. CPL WT is not determined yet, but we'll hopefully get to attend one or two World Tour stops.

You are playing with some of your old Titans/SK teammates, do you think teamplay will be one of your biggest strengths?

- Actually no. I think that our friendship and individual skill level will be our strength

Where do you see yourself and the Playmakers at the end of 2006?

- Hopefully at the top of the International CS-scene, but thats still to early to say :)

Would you try to attend a WEG Season?

- We are talking about it actually, we all would like to go to WEG but it requires alot of planning regarding work school etc.

Do you think your team can live up to the expectations of the scene after your successfull international showings with SK/The Titans?

- I dont like comparing any Danish team with The-Titans. They achieved more than any other Danish team has and probably will achieve.

Do you have some sort of funny story that happened at a LAN or something?

- Drally, Russia, Police, Bribe - The rest is up to your imagination!

Is there a story behind your nick, what does the letters stand for?

- Its short for sphinx, or sphinxie. Got it from the movie "Gone in 60 seconds" where Vinnie Jones played this Bad ass ***** called sphinx.

How long do you think are you going to play computer games competitively?

- Not to long I guess - but again that depends on how 2006 will evolve for us :)

Do you see yourself playing another game than CS?

- Not competatively.

Can you imagine yourself as a manager of an esport team after retiring from active cs play?

- Nah, would miss the ingame action too much.

Any last shootouts?

- Yes I would like to thank all our sponsors...!

Ohh no wait, we dont have any!! :(
