Rude: How much have you been practicing in preparation for the WCGC?
Blokey: urm, not as much as I'd like to :/, I lanned a couple of weeks ago and played lots of ra3 to get some aim practice, but I've had trouble upgrading my pc so I haven't played for a while now, hope to get some lan practice in before the tournament actually starts

Rude: which day does the tournament actually start on, and how long does it run for? You're going to Korea for 12 days right?
Blokey: er gimme a mo, gotta find the document, 'Opening ceremony' is on oct 7th, games begin on 8th, q3 finishes on 14th and everything else finishes 15th.

Rude: should have a lot of free time then inbetween matches n shit
Blokey: yeah lots

Rude: Do you intend to sample any of the local whores or are you just going to concentrate on the tournament?
Blokey: hehe, dunno about whores but ill try and see some of korea, worked for russians :D

Rude: I hear Timber is quite the pimp and plans to shag more sluts than the whole rest of the UK team, will you let that happen? I mean cmon, you've gotta represent UNR n shit, cant let someone in 9 out-do you in the woman department.
Blokey: hell no!
Rude: thats the spirit

Rude: Where abouts are you hoping to place in the tournament?
Blokey: not sure how many people are going in total but i guess i wanna be in like top 20 really

Rude: I think its 14 countries x 4 player?
Blokey: so er... 56 players

Rude: Or it might be 13 countries, because according to Mirage the 14th flag which was missing waas New Zealands and we know they're not in the games after what happened at AU Btop
Blokey: so top 20 is good yeh

Rude: Who besides Fatality and ZeRo4 do you think will do well?
Blokey: kane, lakerman and er think timber/python could do well too

Rude: ah, lakers going?
Blokey: i *think* so

Rude: was there a swedish qualifier then? didnt hear anything about that
Blokey: no.. i think they picked a team to go in the end

Rude: On the whole how do you think the UK will do?
Blokey: hmm, I think we should all finish top 30 hopefully. I dont think any of us have really had time to practice as much as we wanted tho :/

Rude: If you dont win it all do you plan on getting very drunk and violent and regaining some of our national pride?
Blokey: yeah do they have like alchohol over there? :)
Rude: hehe, dunno, im sure they do :)

Blokey: hehe ok yeah ill get us banned from any future uk battletop competitions or something :D
Rude: btw, if you DO lose to someone, make sure its not a frog :)
Blokey: lol
