FOA Interview #12, Part 2

[MarkG]

The Faces of Apolyton Interviews Series is here agani!

The long-waited second part of Locutus' interview has just been posted.

On the questioner's role, once again, Solver.

[Immortal Wombat]

Hooray. Long awaited is right.


(Euro04 predictions looking a little out of date now though )

[Solver]

I submitted the ready interview to the management before Euro04 started, so don't look at me .

[DarkCloud]

...glad to see this finally moving along again

[Tamerlin]

Thanks Locutus and Solver, it is always interesting to know more about the staff and posters of Apolyton.

I have deeply appreciated the comments about the Civilization like games, not only because they are close to the ones I could have made, but because they are well thought and not aimed at flaming one game or the other, something that it is still too common in some threads.

But is Rugby known in the Netherlands...

It is, but everyone knows it's inferior to football

[Gilgamensch]

Finally finished your interview:

Wasn't it supposed to be an interview more about you

Solver, you might have wanted to concentrate a bit more on him.........or maybe it is the lack of other life? In other words: the lack of RL, which made this part so short?

Still interesting. But for the football: Germany and Netherlands might be out quicker than we think

[Solver]

Gilg, I don't suppose you really know how talkative Locutus is . Another topic for a discussion would probably see parts of this interview coming out rapidly till the release of Civ 4 .

[Gilgamensch]

I have a slight idea about Once he started he can't finish , but sometimes same for me

Edit:

Another topic for a discussion would probably see parts of this interview coming out rapidly till the release of Civ 4

Not sure what you mean

[Solver]

Sorry I wrote that in a confusing way . I meant, if we started to discuss yet another topic, then apolyton would only finish publishing the interview when Civ 4 comes out.

[Gilgamensch]

Ah......now it makes sense to me (no insult meant)

Are you sure about the timeframe, though? And I am not sure, if interviews over 1000 pages would be allowed

And the part about Egypt could have been a bit longer by the way.

But all complete a

PS: Don't forget, you are the interviewer and shall take the lead (with some persons sometimes hard though)

[Solver]

Hehe, it's really hard to take the lead when talking to a person that has so much interesting stuff to say! I have my comments on Egypt, but if I voiced those, or asked more questions about, like, why is the Khufu pyramid falsely attributed to Khufu and what does Locutus think about it... then we would have another 5-6 pages on Egypt. Add to that a 10 page discussion on why Germany is weaker than Italy in Euro 2004, and also a heated argument over fried potatoes vs. pizzas...

[Gilgamensch]

Agreed, but I think (I might be wrong on it) that couple of people might be interrested into it. The discussion about football don't like this football so much anymore, to much money involved

Food.......don't argue with Italians about pizza, they'll kill you straight away........(unless you can run quicker)

[Solver]

There's no way I could have interviewed a Dutchman without mentioning football. A passionate fan such as Locutus at that .

No, Solver, noone is interested in your theories about aliens
