Interviews arn't bad at all! The questions are quite nicely personalised to each member which is great. For the short style it all works pretty well, just that it's all kind of short (but then that is coming from a budding journalist/writer so don't take it too harshly).
Anyway i'm sufficiently impressed by the improvements to say: i'd like to be interviewd
Hello all. I´d like to be interviewed as well, but I´m not going to do the questions. I post this here to ask for some questions.
You can ask me whatever you want (remember that I want serious interviews...) via PM.
I will add the question and the naswer to this thread.
You are able to send me several questions in a single PM...
Bye!
SSJ2Luigi: Why is your signature so gigantic? MARSUPILAMI: Because I´d like to hav there all my initiatives. If a new user sees the signature, he could enter in the threads and be interested SSJ2Luigi: Why happens if I don't respect your rules? MARSUPILAMI: Good question. It was only a good sentence to put there, nothing more SSJ2Luigi: What do you think about my Thibaut Pinot stories? MARSUPILAMI: Nothing, I donñt know nothing about them SSJ2Luigi: What do you think about my signature? MARSUPILAMI: Short! Not bad, not good SSJ2Luigi: Has my lack of posting in your threads disappointed you? MARSUPILAMI: Depends. In CTWWYPCM of course, but in the other threads no. in PCM WORLD CUP you´re active... SSJ2Luigi: What's you least favorite spanish rider? MARSUPILAMI: I couldn´t choose because I don´t usually hate riders, except Froome. Maybe Antón

MARSUPILAMI: Today we have on interviews one of PCM.Daily admins, TMM. how are you? TheManxMissile: I´m fine! M: Maybe this is a very, very, very silly question, but I´d like to clear my doubts. Please don´t get angry with me for this... TMM, are you a man or a woman? TMM: Despite my love of womens cycling (possibly more than the mens side) and regular female avatars, which i do play up to from time to time, have no doubts i am a man. I've got the beard and everything! M: I had doubts because you have a woman in your profile photo and you said "A woman never tells" in "The Daily Journal... sorry if you got angry... TMM: Of course Cobie Portman would say that, she is in fact a lady. You'd get the same style of response from Krista Marcus (EPIC). But as many know i am really Karl Hammarling and Karl doesn't really do anger. M: I feel obliged to ask you this: Why did you decide to start I´m With A Stupid? I have to say it´s a great idea, congratulations! TMM: I never started it. Originally it was brought to the forum by Cunego59 a number of year ago and he got it from somwhere else. I just re-started this current run of the game. It was popular when i started out and ran for a while. It lost interest to many early this year so as a community we put it on hiatus. I just felt like it was time for a return, plus it's the only way i'll ever get to set the questions. M: In a 0-10 scale, where do you think I am? (as a member) TMM: Honesltly a 3-4. But a lot of your problems come through being young such as constant changing from idea to idea alongside the spamming. Neither of these are hard to change they wiil just take a bit of effort and time. At least you are trying to be interesting and contribute it just needs some more thought and restraint. I'd imagine though that not many others share this view. M: And this interview? TMM: Not too bad. Nicely personalised again and quite fun to do. It's a great style, nicely informal, that makes them easy to read. Bit more experience with writing and how to interview and you'd be pretty good. M: Is it difficult being an admin? TMM: Depends on the day. Most of the time it's pretty straightforward but there are days where it's just a nightmare. Usually thats problems caused by members being stupid or fighting and is resolved without too much issue. The biggest challenge was running the Daily Online Championships but next year i'll know better how to run it. M: Last question, who is going to run this year PCM.Daily awards? TMM: We havn't got to those discussions yet. I doubt the format will change much, if at all, just who you send the votes to. I doubt we'll give much thought to them until December, we've got other ideas to be working on. M: OK, thanks TMM. Bye! TMM: Auf widersehen meine kleinen freund
MARSUPILAMI: Hello SSJ2Luigi, how are you? SSJ2Luigi: Pretty well, still a pretty sore from cycling training yesterday but other then that I'm fine M: To start, why did you choose that username? S: I signup at youtube because I wanted to make a playlist with my favorite music at the time. I didn't want a boring username with initials because I perhaps wanted to use a youtube account for something. I was a huge fan of the flash series Super Mario Bros Z at the time and within my friend group at school I kinda was the Luigi of that series in the group. with the series based on DragonBall Z and being a huge fan myself, I wanted a link between Luigi and something DBZ related. I decided that my favorite transformation of the series (Super Saiyan 2, which abbreviation is SSJ2) result: SSJ2Luigi M: And what´s your real name? S: I don't want to reveal that since it's incredible easy to find somebody's home adress if you have somebody's name. I don't want to open my door one day and find a flaming bag of poop because I pissed someone of on daily M: Why did you decline being in Members DB? S: I don't want to fully reveal way because it's really personal but I didn't like the idea of people I don't know at all playing as someone that's supposed to resemble myself. M: What could you say about your EPIC team? S: They are great! with the Europcar team still available after a late entry together with Jesleyh the team worked wonders and are currently placed 9th in the rankings. beating teams like Saxo, Katusha and Argos. I'm not sure that the team is able to keep this pace up because Jesleyh has jumped ship M: Now time to choose: CTWWYPCM, PCM WORLD CUP, I´m With A Stupid or 4 Truths 1 Lie? S: Hard to choose between the PCM World Cup and I"m With Stupid. the PCM World Cup because it has been attempted by many before (like fcancellara who is a respected member). I'm with Stupid because in the most recent round I had a perfect round and I hosted a round once, which was well recieved by the community. I think that IWS wins for now but if PCM World Cup is completed then that might change. M: Time to talk a bit of my PCM WORLD CUP. Netherlands is doing a great work there... S: That's not a question, is it? it seems that the AI is extremely unrealistic with the dutch riders are being good. M: What do you think about Terpstra? S: In real life I don't really like him because I'm not a huge fan of cobble classics and the hilly classics that follow (even AGR despite me actually riding the Cauberg once) M: If you had to choose, what DB is better? FCD, FDB, Expansion Pack, PackITA... S: Honestly I haven't played either of them but I've downloaded the Expansion Pack and the FDB db's and the Expansion Pack was less annoying to install so I guess I'll go with good old Daily Expansion Pack M: In what difficulty do you usually play PCM? S: Depends on the version, in PCM06 it's easy, in PCM10 it's normal and in PCM14 I've started playing on hard M: And what PCM do you use most? S: Currently neither since my CPU is broken but PCM06 is the version I've played the most and enjoyed the most. M: Thanks for answering my questions S: No problem, thanks for having me M: Bye! S: Yeah I need to go to, good thing my transportation aide has arrived

MARSUPILAMI: Hello Mresuperstar! Nice to spend a few minutes with you! Mresuperstar: Not a problem. M: In this interview we will talk mostly about The Amazing Race, ok? Mr: Sure, makes sense. It's new and being talked about. M: So, here I go. The Amazing Race is also a TV programme. How did you decide to run this on Daily? Mr: I've always been a fan of the show and after running Survivor twice I felt I needed to change things up and I figured out ways to transition the TV program to an effective community game. M: Do you think that The Amazing Race will become a famous game in the forum? Mr: I could care less. M: Why? Mr: As long as I'm having fun hosting the game and the members that are playing (or watching) are enjoying it than that's all the matters. In the grand scheme of things making something "famous" doesn't mean anything. M: Are you pleased with the welcome the users gave to the game? Mr: Of course, more support than I expected which makes it tough because I will have to turn some good teams away because of all the interest. M: I watch at your profile and when I look at "Threads" I see 11 pages! As I´m really lazy to look for more good initiatives (your initiatives), did you ran some initiatives before? What initiatives? Mr: Well, voting-bracket games like PCM.Daily's Favourite Cyclist, previously mentioned Survivor, Story of the Month, and stories that I have written. M: And to finish, did you look at my initiatives? Mr: Nope. I'm too "lazy." M: Bye and thanks for your time! Mr: Bye.
MARSUPILAMI: Hello fernando97. Maybe in your username there is "Fernando", which is my name, but once you told me that your name isn´t Fernando. Two questions: Why did you put Fernando in your username? fernando97: Well, I had no idea what to choose as a username, so typed the first thing that came to my mind. As I was watching some F1 race at the moment of registration, it was a straight-forward to choice to somehow include my favorite driver. That's it. M: And the second, what´s your real name? F: Check out an old SpiderTech story of mine, pretty sure you'll find out soon then. M: Would you recommend us to visit Budapest? F: Sure, nice women and great partying opporunities. M: What can we visit there? F: My house. M: Who´s the rider in your photo? Sergio Luis Henao? F: Yes, sir! M: Time to choose: CTWWYPCM, I´m With A Stupid or 4 Truths 1 Lie? F: IWS is a great game, I love to participate in it. Never played the other two, as I'm not fast enough for 4T1L and I don't play PCM much these days, so I don't get enough wins to participate in CTWWYPCM (You should come up with a shorter abbreviation though). M: Why don´t you have a Man-Game team? F: Never had the time to participate, maybe this will change in the future. I follow most WT races there, it's a really well organised game. Joy to read really. M: I see that we share a lot of things (I don´t have a MG team, my birthday is in March, my (real) name is Fernando...) F: Well, if that's a lot, then, ok. I'm not a spammer though, by any means. M: To finish, in a 0-10 scale, where´s this interview? F: A strong 6. M: Thanks for answering! Bye! F: Bye!

but PCM06 is the version I've played the most and enjoyed the most.
