Hey all! And welcome to the fourth interview by me. This time we have an extreme fast driver who is also my buddy in TM – the two time TWL champion, klovni! You can find more infomation about the project here. Here we go!
--
1. Let's start with an actual question. Your team BX3 won TWL1 against Lik3D about an week ago. Could you share your feelings?
Well the feeling is just amazing of course. It's so awesome to win the biggest league in Trackmania 2 two times a row with a team like this. All the "core players" of our team are truly great and kind people. Playing and talking with them is just extremely pleasant.
2. Could you tell us something about yourself?
I am a 21-year-old guy from Finland who finds Trackmania very addictive. I play football a few times a week, and I’m also coaching -01 born kids in this friggin' awesome sport! I also do athletics coaching a few times a week as well.
3. Sounds fun! How and when did you find TrackMania?
I found Trackmania in 2005 when my friend forced me to play the Trackmania Sunrise demo. I found it very addictive and interesting. When TMN was released in 2006, I started to play it actively. After that I bought TMU and got myself a real tm-addiction .
4. You are currently one of the best drivers in TM2 Canyon. I think this is a must to ask: what's your secret?
My secret is to nolife and try to drive as fast as possible. Try to squeeze every possible thousandth off your time. That is my style to train. Better pb = better regu!  (That might be the reason why I am not that good in rounds)
5. Your team BX3, formerly known as NoG, has won both TWL:s (TrackMania 2 World Leagues). How can one team be so dominant?
Well the fact that we are old tmu-players has helped us a lot in the et-tournaments because normally the cars are forced on in these tournaments and we are quite used to it. With awesome team spirit + some kick ass nolifing we try our best to be the best team in the world.
6. In which other teams have you driven?
UMF is the one and only other team in which I have played, mostly tmuf and tmnf.
7. Having started TrackMania in Sunrise, you have quite a long gaming history. What's the best thing you have experienced in these games?
It's hard to pick one or two the best things I have experienced, but if i have to, i will choose
of course winning twl0 and twl1.
8. Which is your favorite environment and which is the worst one to your mind?
My favourite environments in TMUF are desert and stadium. All the other enviros are also very cool, I can’t pick the worst. I enjoy playing them all. In TM2 it's obviously Canyon because there are no other enviros yet released.
9. What elements does a good map need in general?
There is a difference between a good map and a good map for competitions. In competition map I want a real challenge, it has to be hard enough. A "normal" good map is easy to learn, not too much scenery and a bit of that COOL flow!
10. You have built many maps for tournaments. Which is the best of your tournament maps in your opinion?
My best tournament maps were not chosen to the tournament pakmaps! ET-admins are so strict with their rules, it is very hard to make a tournament track which is good and also fills all the requirements set by et-admins.
11. What is your favorite track right now? Why?
Right now? Well I have to say it is a multilap track made for TFET by Marius89. I tested it couple of days ago and it was just stunning. I hope it gets chosen to the tournament.
12. Who is the most kick-ass TrackMania driver ever if you are not taken into account?
I have to say it is UMF Dragonus. He is maybe the best multilap driver in TMUF. His consistency is just stunning.
13. Do you think that TM2 will grow as big as TM Forever did? Can Nadeo make this game as great as Forever is?
I sure hope so! I really hope Ubisoft starts to advertise the game more. If WCG picks it as one of the games, I'm sure it will grow very fast.
14. What do you except from Shootmania and Questmania?
To be honest I dont really care. I just hope they are not going to ruin this awesome game!
