Please introduce yourself to our readers. |

My name is Ruben Alexander Bielenberg, im a 20 year old student from
Oslo, Norway |

It's been an interesting road for yourself having played with a
lot of well known teams, you have also played at a lot of major tournaments.
How was the atmosphere and event compared to those other
tournaments? |
| 4K^Dark |
I thought the atmosphere there was really good, alot of people who
came to watch us play, and even though the games did not go as well for us
as we wished for, the crowd still cheered for us. |
| Midway: |
I spoke with TsN staff, broadcasters at the event, at the
location and they spoke of this event being an evolution in eSports coverage
and presentation. How do you feel about that and do you think that eSports
can grow into a similar format as soccer/football where teams travel to each
others locations and play in front of crowds? |
| 4K^Dark |
I dont think it will take quite some time before something like that
becomes an everyday business, but the showmatches Intel has arranged with
its lan tournaments so far is a big step forward for eSports. |
| Midway: |
I noticed you were not their for the de_cbble match, what happen
that made you unable to show up? |
| 4K^Dark |
Cbble was nightman's map, and I had a couple of lectures early on
Friday that forced me to take a later flight. |
| Midway: |
How did you feel about 4K's performance and what can you guys do
to improve between now and the coming events? |
| 4K^Dark |
More practice is the key with the team we got now, I have not played
since september really, so i need a bit of rust scraped off me. And we need
to work on the team as a whole, we just need a bit more time to play with
each other again. |
| Midway: |
What was the experience like working with the film crew on
location? Were they in the way and were the cameras annoying? How do you
think the movie will come out? |
| 4K^Dark |
After a while you really get used to all of that stuff, the film
crew were cool, they were not in the way at all imo. I think its going to be
a good movie, the people making it seemed very professional. |
| Midway: |
I'm under the impression that you are inactive with 4K at the
moment, will you be rejoining the team anytime soon or are you looking at
other teams to join? |
| 4K^Dark |
It's correct that I was inactive, and had been for over 7months, but
now that ive been able to free up my schedule a bit at school im back with
4kings again.
No, I'm not looking to join another team. |
| Midway: |
As a member of an English based team but born in Norway what
challenges does this present to you and do you enjoy playing with 4K as much
as some of your other teams such as eoL? |
| 4K^Dark |
It doesn't present me with any challenges at all really. I really
enjoy playing with the 4kings guys alot, and I think we have a really good
thing going for us now as well.
The eoL days was a bit different and
i dont think you really can compare the two, in eoL we were all irl friends
basicly and it was cool to be an all Norwegian team and wooping swedes all
the time :) |
| Midway: |
A lot of questions, thanks for your time and any last
words/shoutouts? |
| 4K^Dark |
I just want to thank Intel, ATI and Alienware for their support and
work they have done for us. |
