While I'm still on their tails I believe it would be a big mistake not to use the occasion to ask some other questions and thoughts about various things. The chance came and wasn't used to the maximum, but we got time for two questions each.
NiP-ahl-
What do you think is the strength in your play? I guess it's the teamplay part, also the ability to keep my nerves in control and perform well when it's needed.
If something could take you away from the CS scene; what would that be? Good question, I haven't thought about that so much. But to run something own would be fun, and perhaps in gaming too.

I know from before that you play Diablo 2, does it affect your CS career anything you think? Hehe, yeah I played some Diablo 2 before, mostly to pvp in NL. I've stopped playing that though. :)
Do you think it's worth spending so much time as you actually do on this game? Sure, you make some money, but it won't last forever. I think it's worth it now when it finally starts to be profitable. Meanwhile it works as a job, it's also a hobby. I'll probably play until I get tired of it. I also think that CS will last, it won't be replaced by a similar game. So, yeah, it's definately worth it.

At Nollelva I saw you playing quite a lot on aim_map against Zbots as warmup. I tested it myself when I came home and it felt nice. Do you think this is a good way of practising your aim? Well, I think it more is a reflex training thing, you seldom get those kinds of challanges in an ordinary match. I play aim_map before matches as simple warmup, I get to shoot more 1v6 bots than on public.
Would you like to tell us how it is to play with EYE compared to spiXel? In spiXel I was the one who called the strats, and I also came up with the most of the tactics, the whole team perfected them though. In Eyeballers it's vilden who does all this. Just to change team and not making the strats is a big change. Eyeballers also have a pretty different playing style, much more flashes and turns in the strats. In spiXel we simply rushed more. Both playing styles work for me, it has been some problems remembering all flashes etc in the beginning though.

In order to be a top-player in Counter-Strike training and motivation are demanded. What has been most difficult for you to overcome? I think it has been most difficult to stop playing with my IRL buddies. But I don't regret that I did. If I hadn't I wouldn't be where I am now. :)
Do you regret that you chose to join Gamers.nu instead of perhaps getting the chance to play with Eyeballers? No, I don't regret it. I wasn't supposed to play more with EYE after the WCG qualifier.

Many think of you as Counter-Strike's best tactician, how come you got so well at this tactics thing? Any tips in how to succeed in this? I guess you need a little talent, I think in another way to start. I usually thinks of the things that we are having problems with and using it when building new tactics.
Do you get on well in NiP? How do you compare how it is in NiP with your time in EYE? I really get on well in NiP. EYE are really great guys and I played there in one year, so I of course miss the guys a bit. Meanwhile I see the guys in NiP on LAN about each time we play, so I have quite a lot of fun here too!

How did it feel for you as a player when you got the honour and offer to play with 4Kings? It felt really well, but it also felt bad because of Angelwork. I promised him to play together with him until one of us got a really huge offer. Unfortunately that only lasted for two days. <3 aw
Compare playing with a complete Swedish based team with a half-Swedish team in Counter-Strike! There isn't that big of a difference, the way of communicating is a little bit different though.

How did you feel when you had beat SK, EYE and spiXel at Nollelva? Felt really nice, hadn't played against any of the clans before except on PCW, so it was really fun. Although, I think it's sad that most people say that the only reason for us winning the event was because it was BYOC. But we'll prove that we can do it on 'NOC' too.
Would you like to give us a little comparison between playing with ICSU, without neither bigger sponsors nor possibilities and the big organisation of mTw? The difference is that we now have a really stabile organisation backing us up with most things as trips to bigger events, hardware and software to our computers and some other small goodie things. We also got ourselves a really nice homepage, www.mymtw.com.

Everyone knows that you're a really good player both aim- and tactics-wise. You've suffered from some clan jumps though. How does that affect you and your career? Hard question. If it affects me in anyway it is in a bad way actually. I guess it gets a little harder to get a clan or something. Sure, I've changed clans a little bit the last months but personally I think I've had good reasons for this. Also, it's always worst for the guy who leaves and I think that's a little sad.
How's the situation in your present clan Destination Skyline? Do you feel confident with the organisation and how does the communication in-game work? Everything works great. We got some news coming up in a close future so keep you eyes opened for that. :) The communication works super. I, who's calling the strats in-game, speak Swedish while the others respons in English.

At the moment you have an extremely nice position on our Sverigeranking (Swedish ranking). How often do you play Counter-Strike really? Right now it isn't that much. Haven't played more than a little public since CPL and OptiHack.
When did you realize that CS was your thing and that you actually was proffesional? I was good at CS from the very beginning : ).

You have lately played super-well from what I've seen, what do you think about this? Well, I guess it has gone well, I play quite a lot, even though I don't play with any team, I mostly play mixes and so on. I've got a new computer recently so I think it's really fun playing and so :)))) We'll have to see what happends after christmas, if I would play with a team with high goals I would play a lot more than I do now.
You've been to a whole lot of events outside of Sweden with different clans. Which has been the most amusing? Hums, the funniest... there's a lot of memories but I still think Clikarena in France was one of the funniest, even though there was quite a lot of waiting I was there with a really fun lineup in GoL (Souledge, Hyb, mysse, Gozie). But to experience Las Vegas was also super-fun, but there was no playing there though. CPL Dallas was definately the best organized event I've been at, so it's hard to say. But if I had to choose I'll go with Clikarena, when we bootcamped one week before with eoLithic on GameOnline.
