EPT
Describe yourself in a few words, name, age, occupation and country of residence
I'm a very cool dude, my name is Micah, I'm 21, currently in my third year of communications at university and I live in the same country you do.
Big suprise there.
Anyway, do you have any idea why TL.Net chose you, an average 'very cool dude' for an interview?
Well, they probably picked me because I'm the #1 Poster. That's a pretty big deal on the internet, like being the manager of a McDonalds in real life.
Maybe not only because of the self-acclaimed throne, but also because you're probably exactly the opposite of Moltke, whom was last interviewed, dont you think?
We're not exactly opposites. We share a high intellect and a state of gay awkward virginity.
Oh, and I like to beat women, too.
I was referring to your somewhat more active and "progressive" social life.
Ah, my drug habits. Yeah, I guess Moltke isn't a big weed fan. He's right, though. What's fun about partying all night and doing drugs? Let's just masturbate in front of the Communist Manifesto instead.
Let's do some history digging in his honour. When did you start getting interested in SC and TL?
I really got into SC about... six and a half years ago I think. I actually bought it when it came out, but I was too much of a baby at the time to really appreciate it. One of my friends started playing it online and I watched him and really started to like it. I don't remember exactly how I ended up at TL, maybe I clicked on a link in Nazgul's bnet profile or something like that. TL was still in its infancy back then, I think it had existed for like two months at that point. So yeah, I've basically been here forever. I came for the progaming news (something completely new to me at the time) and stayed for the forums, which had very decent moderation even way back then.
What do you consider the climax of your TL carreer? Your replay in the database? Making a bombaytv movie ridiculing Strafe? Your epic blogs?
I consider my blogs the best thing I've done on TL. It's kind of a pity nobody actually reads the blog section unless a girl is involved. Or some sort of icky disease. Or both.
You've climbed your way up the social ladder on TL. Next step: staff?
TL has this annoying policy of not giving people power unless they actually contribute to the site. I'd give my left nut for the power to ban people, but I wouldn't write a page every week detailing just how sensually I would give Jaedong a blowjob for beating yet another terran.
It's... it's just not fair, damnit.
And about your #1 poster throne. Sources have informed me yubee is organizing a revolt. Your words to yubee and his accomplices?
Yubee, you traitorous rat. I made you, and this is how you play a nigga? Just know that I have had my ass surgically grafted onto this throne by the best Bolivian doctors drug money can buy. I'm not going anywhere. You, on the other hand, are going places. Bad places. Places even roaches don't want to be. I'm thinking furnaces and flooded tombs. I'm thinking Rosie O'Donnell's ass.
To anyone foolish enough to aid yubee in his suicide run: remember what happens to the people who escort the bad guy on an expedition in adventure movies? Yeah, get ready to make love to the bottom of a spiky pit.
On the topic of StarCraft: Do you still follow progaming? And do you still play it actively?
I kind of follow progaming, in that I know who the top players are at any given time, I know who is up and coming and I know when the cool games are going to be played. I don't know who is in what team and such though (making me terrible at Proleague Liquibetting) and I stopped trying to understand the diabolical maze that is the OSL qualifying system. I only watch VODs when they seem like they're good games and I almost never watch livestreams because I'd have to get up before noon and I'm just not ready to make that kind of sacrifice.
I'm still a pretty active player. I'm online pretty much every day, though often I just watch replays or obs games. I play BWCL 2v2 with some Belgian faggot and I'm an all around gosu zerg.
What's your currently favourite poster on TL? And the worst poster according to you?
I don't really have one single favourite poster, but I really like Fakesteve, BroOd, IntotheWow and Smurg. The worst poster, hmm... probably iNcontroL (I've just made a powerful enemy).
I assume you've read my interview with Moltke..
Of course.
Then you know what's coming. Two words, pick one.
Let's start off with Argentina: :[ or
?:[. IntotheWow is from Argentina : [.
Yakii: hero or weirdo?
Yakii is a fucking hero. He's constantly doing TL a huge favour and we should pretty much be sucking his dick 24/7.
Rekrul: big shot or nerd who got lucky?
Nerd who got lucky. I don't care how much money he has, I still see a small BW geek.
SC2GG commentators: exporting to a different audience or spreading misinformation?
A little bit of both. It's a good thing they're making SC more popular with the general audience, but they still make a lot of mistakes, which is bad. From what I've heard though, they're doing their best to fix that, so big ups I guess.
Ok, since we both have to leave, I suggest we finish it up with this one question: Who would you like to see interviewed next?
Either Fakesteve or Yakii. Fakesteve because he owns and Yakii because I'm kind of curious as to how his life looks. I don't think he sleeps.
Thanks for the interview, I hope you enjoyed it.
I did, it was very cool. I hope you enjoyed me.
That's it. Don't forget to vote in the poll as to who comes next, I'll put the poll up soon!
