Thoughts on Alkov's (not) lord squads?
LOL his offensive teams are actually really cool (esp. his Garde + Kyub team). Not a fan of his fat balance type ones though heh.
When was the last time you visited SL?
I was there at the start of this year for a wedding (thankfully not mine!). I actually tend to go back around every 2 years so it's great to see the country always improving :]
Haven't seen you online for a long time, where you been?
Bit busy this week! Had a ton of various uni society related stuff and i was helping some of my mates train for AUGs touch. I'll try and catch you online soon!
I thought of a few other questions.
1.) Top 2-3 favorite DPP mons and sets?
Life orb Tran with Overheat, Explosion, Hp Grass/ Taunt Roost Aero / Sub Petaya Empo!
2.) Who are your favorite DPP players that currently still play?
You obviously :], pana, somalia, xtra, leftiez.
3.) If Zamrock, Mob Barley, and Steve Angello were in a pool of salt water, who drowns first?
Yeah there's no way i can top Alkov's answer.
Hey daft congrats on player of the week even though C1one is the one who makes the decisions. you deserve it!
quick questions
Thanks mate!
1.) How do you feel about the increasingly large divide between the Competitive and Casual scene, or rather, Ladder/Room Tours and Official tournaments. Do you think both should be given equal respect or do you lean towards the Competitive scene?
I actually don't think it's too bad because there are enough avenues for almost anyone to get involved in tour level play in individual tours like Smogon Tour, OST, and OLT. Even the non-official tours in the tournaments forum are worth getting involved in because they still tend to attract some really good players.
I guess it would be hard to give each 'equal respect' when you inherently see a higher quality of play in tour level games (but that's not to say that there aren't good ladder players). At the same time, playing in tours doesn't automatically give you the right to act like a jerk. I think there's a wider attitude issue in Smogon that needs to be addressed.
2.) On a number of 1 to 10 how many gallons of tears did you cry when Rumor said he hopes you'd die.
0. Waste of gains.
My friends own that killer milkshake place in Canberra you gave props to, nice to see them get a mention on Smogon. You should come down and visit sometime.
That's sick! Yeah, keen for another road trip soon :]
Favourite code of football to watch (from most to least): afl, league, union, soccer.
League, Union, Soccer, Afl (though Afl is pretty fun to play!)
What do you bench, squat and deadlift?
Haven't tested my 1 RM in ages but for my rep numbers:
- bench: hovering around 115 (i feel like i'm starting to lag here but i am cutting atm so...)
- squat: 155
- deadlift: 185
For reference i'm around 5'11 (1.8m), weigh 79kg ish and have been lifting for about 2.5 years. Numbers could be better i guess.
Favourite city you've visited in Australia?
Probably Melbourne. Definitely our most European city.
Favourite DJs? The fact that you love trance and house (two of my 3 favourite genres to DJ in clubs) makes me happy. Come watch me sometime!
I had no idea you dj'd - I'd love to come along and watch!
My top 5 of all time: Daft Punk, Above and Beyond, Eric Prydz, Frankie Knuckles, Paul Van Dyk.
Rate deadmau5's performance at TI5 (there are recordings you can look up) on a scale from 1-10
It was a really good set (like 8/9) until he dropped levels at the end...LOL.
Also, that crowd was abysmal. They completely killed the vibe.
