,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, An interview of mrDJ (kuski of month on February 2001): ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' -= Ex Teams =- None. I made SRX with AAL when I made my first NR (Warm Up - 14,45) -= Your own best WRs in your own opinion? =- Enigma is possibly the k00lest one, but Hooked is maybe the best drive. -= Best WRs in your own opinion? =- Uphill is very close to perfection now, The Steppes is quite impressive too. I don't know the style used by Jokke on Ramp Frenzy, but if it's same as zynti, then it's a very impressive drive. Apple Harvest is a drive I don't think I could beat. -= Current total: =- 45:36:89 - I'm not a totaltime warrior, play only for fun. -= Location: =- Sunndal, Norway (The Hell Hole) -= Across Career briefly? Any WRs?, World Cup I and II and so on.. =- Actually.. No Across career. Had just seen ppl playing it, and I thought it looked like the most boring game ever. At least very lousy graphics. Started to play when Weird-AAL's little-brother claimed that he could beat me and AAL. It didn't take too long untill he had no best times. -= How did you get Across/Elma? Was it your worst mistake? or best..? =- I found the full version at a school computer, so I mailed it home. I don't see it as a mistake or as something good. If I played it as much as zynti did to get under 42 min's in tt I would see it as a mistake though =P. I just play to make time pass by. It's more fun than TV, so I just replaced TV/Video/Gaming time that I already had with höyling. -= We all knows that your Evilsite is one of the best sites in Elma scene. Tell something about it. =- Thnx, I wouldn't say it's the site is g00d, but the content is of some quality I think. Actually getting the top-5 list was the reason for me to make a site. The first layout was very bad, I tried to make it look quite a bit like the previous top-5 list, and I made the whole site in an hour or so. When I made The Evilsite like it is today I used more time to make it look better, but I could still have used alot more work and made it much k00ler. I just won't. =P -= You like MopoBBS, don't you? Tell something.. =- I like the mopoBBS as amusement. When there is noone that I like to talk with at #across, I have used to check the mopoBBS. I actually get angry with some of the stuff about SRX in the BBS, cuz it's an attack on me, even if it's someone else in SRX that's done something stupid. "Shall I be my brothers keeper?" - somewhere in the Bible (Maybe not even correct quote, but ya get the idea) =P -= Have you made any external levels? Any good ones?-] =- I don't like the fancy, well done externals. They are too höyla, making the best time go to the one playing the most. It basically doesn't come down to skill at all. I like the battle levels, the levels made in 20 sec's, cuz then you have to make the style, instead of finding it. All my levels is that kind of levels. Most of them is about 20 sec's too. You know that I like that. =P most of the lev's I've ever made suxxius, but still you can find them at the Evilsite contest. -= Favourite internals / most irritating internals: =- I hate lab pro, I've only finnished it a few times, and I have not done the bounce. My favourite varies much, but I really think hooked is fun. -= Is there some kind of external contests you like? =- As I've said, I don't like externals that much, but if I'm going to play externals I'll play Timmo's levels. They always got more than 1 fast way to do the lev. -= Best lgr in your mind? Which lgr did you use? =- I use the simpsons lgr, cuz I LOVE the simpsons. (Who doesn't?) And it got a relaxing sky. =) I don't really care about anything else than the bike and the sky in an lgr, I play with low graphics. -= Favourite music and movies..? =- I love alot of music. My new nick I got from Madonna's Music. I seldom listen to that kind of music, but that song just got stuck on my mind. Mr Bungle, Faith no More, Nine Inch Nails, Chemical Brothers, Tool, DJ Food, etc. As you can see: the best in many genres. Movies: The Boondock Saints, Matrix, American History X, Fight Club, Anything with Norton in it =) -= Your opionion about MC Studios and MUe's Elma animations =- I love em! Especially "Across day" with MC Records, and that Elma music video MUe made. They rock like hell! -= Mention some good things you have gotten with Across/elma? =- Joy rushes when making stuff I didn't think could be done. That's actually it. =) The Rush of taking a WR is huge. Especially when you don't höyl for it, you just suddenly got a WR.. Then you want to shout =) -= Mention some bad things you have gotten with Across/elma? =- Being accused of doing somekind of magic with elma, so I can be "immortal". Just so everyone know it: I can't do that on purpose! It just have happened when windows crashes while playing. As a good argument: If I could make myself immortal, wouldn't I then easily made the lab pro bounce? I would always survive, and that's not what happends. I agree that I maybe shouldn't have sent in my bug-rides, but i'm not more of a cheater than mengerle that sent in the hooked bug. Only difference is that I didn't tell anyone outside the team. -= Do you want Elma scene will be kept up forever? =- As long as new versions of the game will come, and happenings like OLP and Wcup is around, I don't see how it could "disappear". -= What is the most fucking thing as happened to you in your career? =- Same as under "bad things", but also that ppl in my own team give away all my replays to ppl outside the team. Especially when I don't know who's done it. As it looks now, there will only be me and AAL left in SRX. I think some want to leave, the others is forced to, because AAL is the only one I know doesn't spread. -= Your best achievements in your own opinion? =- Not being caught with the Twin Peaks bug for all those weeks. ;P It didn't come on the first table after I sent it in, but I wanted to hear Czaba say it was a bug, so I mailed him a "WHY??" mail, and he said it didn't get on table because it was recieved by him too late. I thought it was strange he didn't say anything about the bug, but what the heck, should I tell him that it was bugride? nah. I know most of you others would keep your mouth shut about it too. But I made one mistake. Showing my teammates the bug. I thought I could trust them, but it seems as I can't. -= Are you a student or a worker? =- I'm a rebel, I do what I want to. Therefore I always get alot of guidelines about how to do my oral presentations and stuff, but I always run my own ride. I get punished for doing that by getting lower grades than I could have, but I don't care. I just want to prove my point: School don't apprechiate creativity. My grades isn't bad, especially when you think about me not doing any homework. In a grading system where 6 is best, I got an average better than 4. -= How much did/do you play in your sickest period? How much these days? =- I actually played the most when I really sucked. The first wcup event. I have never played any track that much. I guess I played that track 3-4 hours every day, the whole week. -= Current best memories of your career? =- 1. Getting the freefall wr (My first one) 2. Finally making the Enigma bounce, after extremely many tries. -= Best Elma friends? (mention about 10 or so) =- AAL is my friend both when it comes to elma and else. I really don't know if I would call anyone else in the elma scene my friend. Eliaz maybe. I don't talk as much with him longer, but I've never had a fight with him at least. He's an alright dude, although he left SRX for WRS =P -= Do you have a life when playing elma? =- Well, I play Volleyball every wednesday, I'm a soccer-coach on saturdays and mondays. Else I hang some with my friends. Is it a life or not? I dunno. At least I won't throw it away =) -= Did you have a life before playing Elma?-) =- Yeh, sure, but I watched way to0 much TV. Now I don't watch anything regular. -= Your opinion about OLP? =- Hope the tracks is internal like. If they aren't they suck. -= Have you had any girlfriends? =- I had a girlfriend from I was 16 untill I was 19. After she left me, it took about 2 months, and I started to play elma =P .. hmm .. GOD, I hate that girl.. -= Write here something about the game, fellow kuskis, #across, whatever: =- I suppose none of you actually believe that I don't cheat, and being in the elma-scene with that reputation is not very funny. After all, it's just a game, and I would have no trouble at all to leave the scene if the untrue rumours about me continues. I will still play for fun, but then I won't hang in #across anymore. But I can't really tell anything more than that. I'm also very disappointed about my team, where at least one of the members is being a double agent, giving rec's to others. I don't say that it's unfair that I lose the Twin WR, because that is a bug, and I've known that all the time. But I just think it's a shame when ppl have to behave like that, and afterwards don't even have the balls to come out an tell it. Chicken... mrDJ 01 May 2001, (questions by Abula)
