What is the best and the worst thing of being a bw progamer?

What kind of job do you like to have if you weren't a progamer?

to any newcomer: do you think you have any kind of advantage/disadvantage (bw related of course) compared to the old-school of starcraft (boxer, yellow, themarine, reach etc)?

Why did you choose the race you play?
Do you sometimes wish you would have picked a different race to command?
Who do you consider to be the scariest pro to face right now?
The sky just is, and goes on and on; and we play all our BW games beneath it.

wow, lots of really great questions here. I hope all the good ones are used =p

Mine would be: "When I play a serious game, my whole arms and shoulders tense up. After a couple of games, I feel very sore, and can't play again for a while. How do you physically manage to put in 8 or 10 hours of serious gaming each day? Don't your wrists hurt?"

Speaking of which...

How prevalent is carpal tunnel amongst progamers?

with all the time you put into training, is there enough time to enjoy life? how do you balance the two?

also, who would you rather play against, boxer or nada and why?

The day life, when training: Do you practise in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, nights, all-time ?

At work, when practising: You practise directly with Team mates only, or are there more players at office to play with ?

When facing at work practising with each other in the Team, do you feel all the strength is showed? I mean, if you teach each other the tricks and tactics, or you just play many games ?

Do you have at work an schedule, or you can play at any hour you want ?

What kind of control does your boss over you ? Have you got to play a given number of hours, or to play a concrete number of games... or what ? How do you finish a normal day of work ?

haha Freak, the ironic thing is that I train in MMA and probably have a denser muscle mass in my forearms then 99% of the people here. It's not moving the mouse that makes you tired, it's tensing because of the stress.

Best one so far imo!

I always liked questions that go a bit more in-depth strategy, it's always interesting to hear their views... But I don't except they'd want to share to much of their thinking T_T Good thread, anyways!
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

I'd be interested to hear what their plans for the future are. Not the immediate future, like getting into the next Starleague or whatever, but the long term future. Nearly all progamers (I think?) are also in college right now, getting a degree and preparing for a career after gaming, and I'd like to know what they're interested in and plan on doing later in life. (plus, it's the kind of question that you could get an actual answer from the pros about!)

Yesterday before I went to sleep I thought about Nal_rA`s interview. If I ever had chance to interview him tihs are the questions I would ask. I will write questions that you Manifesto didn`t ask him.

Starcraft related questions, no particular order:
Q Before you have match on TV how do you prepare for it?
Q Do you ever feel very nervous before TV games? When you felt the most nervous?
Q You don`t show it, but are you sometimes angry about your performance in leagues?
Q Although you are using very unusal strategys, many people said that you imagine all possible scenarios in your head, and you are prepared for everything. Any thoughts about that?
Q The least used race in Korea is protoss. Why is that?
Q What do you think which maps are the most balanced? Can you name few?
Q What is your favorite map?
Q Do you play on b.net, or you practise wiht your teammates only?
Q How you felt when you won league for the first time?
Q On a pro level, people are saying that protoss player cannot win against terran player with just streight up fight, they are saying protss players have to use a lot of tricks. Do you agree?
Q In KTF apartment do you all sleep in one room, or you have few rooms for sleep?
Q With who are you sleeping? )
Q Why KTF suck in team leagues? You have very good players.
Q When you are playing wiht YellOw 2v2 you sometimes use random -> terran, why is that?
Q Any thoughts about that game (KTF vs SouL) where crowd was kicked out? Have you heard "burrow"?
Q Who is your favorite rival in SC?
Q On how big monitor are you playing?
Q Do you use ball or optical mouse? Is there a difference?
Q What mouse do you use ( manufacrurer, model)?
Q What about mouse sensitivity?
Q What SC needs, new patch or more balanced maps?
Q Do you have any advice for noobs in SC?


Genareal / personal questions
Q When do you wake up, and when do you go to sleep?
Q When you want to relax, what do you do?
Q Do you have any plans after SC? Will you go to college? Have you ever thought about it?
Q How your family reacted when you became progamer?
Q How much time do you have for girlfriend and family?
Q Newest movie you have seen?
Q Hottest woman on Earth is?
Q How much money do you earn a year?
Q What do you do with money you earn?
Q Is your cellphone always on? How much do you use cellphone?
Q I suck, but would you play one game against me?
In the end I would ask: Is there something you would like to add, or tell to your fans?
I have a message for you from TL - We love you Nal_rA. !!
