Inspiration Idol - Who Inspired You?

Juble · Post by **Juble** » 18 Nov 2004, 08:43

Who Inspired you to do what you do?..It might be a WR holder, cool Level designer, great externalist or someone who motivated you for your results to date?

Also when naming someone, try to tell the reason behind it.

Well mine was m0nkeii. Why?....Coz he was the Australian level designer when I started, I really admired his levels as a n00b and he was coming mostly in the top5 in LOM at that stage, came 3rd at the end of 2002. This made me want to do the same the next year. I also loved hoyling his levels for hours, the only levs that made me play that long back then. Thats all I can think of now :).

Olliz truly inspired me when I first started making levels. I was just amazed how he made interesting stuff in his levs. Long time I played his levs all the time, and copied some nice tricks to my own levs. He has inspired me in every way, you know I'm making lots of fun driving levs. I could say he was my elma idol back then. Maybe not so much anymore cuz he has been inactive lately. I'd really like to play some new levels from him.

ez jaytea. firstly he's the guy who got me into elma. secondly it was his times that made me hoyl so hard when starting out; i had to beat him in every level. at first it seemed so hard, i used to make these Excel tables comparing his stats to mine (the days before i knew of stats websites

) and as we are a two-man team (PST) obviously i whaned all the TRs. I remember being so happy the day I finally beat him in tt, then he pretty much stopped playing internals for ages, until about 2 weeks ago in fact.

I remember when I had 5x tt I used to compare my times to Napoleon alot

Was always happy when I passed someone on the danish total time table, so I guess then some danish average players was the ppl that inspirated me the most to hoyl internals.

Tor for sure...it was only cuz i thought his nick was cool

MJXII · Post by **MJXII** » 19 Nov 2004, 00:28

Tor inspires me to do most of the things I do, but I'm still distinctly mediocre so he's got some more work to do there

The_BoneLESS · Post by **The_BoneLESS** » 19 Nov 2004, 02:21

Level inspiration : Olliz, Zebra, Olliz, undiente, BarTeK ( visual effort )

Crazy · Post by **Crazy** » 19 Nov 2004, 21:59

My friend(Krazy <-- miss-spelt) who first showed me elma, omg when we watched his rec on downhill I could not believe he finnished such a long lev (We did not know about AH back then)
-and how long we were playing before we got first apple and survived in what tah heck

He had a friend (named joni!) who had finnished all levs. My friend had got elma from him so all his times in game. He beat us in almost every lev. That was inspiering..

magicman · Post by **magicman** » 20 Nov 2004, 10:55

back in old times it was my freinds iDeA and CoLiC , we beated eachothers times and that inspired me to play more! and after that champi0n has been an idol and is i think, but now it's most ramone, just awsome skills : )

Pertti · Post by **Pertti** » 20 Nov 2004, 12:48

not only one person, mostly iternal records inspired me. also zebra inspired me in levelmaking. also kopaka's old replays (about 4 months ago).

AtmaWeapon · Post by **AtmaWeapon** » 20 Nov 2004, 13:04

The levels of the amazing Ville J inspired me.

onlainari · Post by **onlainari** » 20 Nov 2004, 13:24

inspired by lot of things. wcups inspires me. barteks adventure level and ville j's pirate project inspired. New lgrs always inspires me and new #across flooders :) those tings inspire me to keep coming back to elmaa nd #acro

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 20 Nov 2004, 13:49

best players when i started playing were pajen and Jeppe who inspired me most

Boomer · Post by **Boomer** » 20 Nov 2004, 13:52

These inpired me: Kungen, Chefen and Bubblan. And of course BoneLESS at Externals

Rez · Post by **Rez** » 20 Nov 2004, 14:42

I WAS inspired by darm. So a world broke down when I heard, that he cheated.

Juski · Post by **Juski** » 20 Nov 2004, 21:08

Wke inspired me cause he was as good as i was but he always broke my times.

boomer inspired me cause is insane TT drop like 7 mins in a week or something, a little later i did that too.

Great players have never inspired me becausethey are too good, thay dont play the game on my level and in the beginning when i stÃ¡rted play elma i couldt use any great styles.

Boomer · Post by **Boomer** » 20 Nov 2004, 21:49

Forgot to mentioned infected, WkE, and Juski. Me and infected had a little competition (typo?), at the KZB levpack...

Jeppe · Post by **Jeppe** » 20 Nov 2004, 22:09

I love you mila :*
ppl that was like "omg" in my mind when i was n00b and tryed to be liek was Champi0n,Psy and elbono. =) probably forgot someone.And all friends in finland who where playing the game at that time i was max n00b =) they helped me alot...by breaking my times and downloading new recs (styles) from internet.Coz i didnt have internet when i played teh internal0rz :X

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 21 Nov 2004, 16:17

you ruled Jeppe, :*
i remember you were the only who spread his own recs
it would be nice to see oyu in the wr table again

also it would be nice if you sent you old multi 11.88 rec to multi wrs
i miss you in the tables

sierra · Post by **sierra** » 21 Nov 2004, 19:47

ye WkE was also my idol for a while, cuz he went from 49 mins to 47 pretty quick and i remember seeing his sig "47:59,xx" or whatever and thinking "dame, hope i get there one day"

also aavv, when he was like 47 or 48 mins and he used to always upload his recs to ratemyrec site, those helped me undoubtedly

MJXII · Post by **MJXII** » 21 Nov 2004, 22:34

Oo yes, forgot to mention that when I was a noob I was massively inspired by Jeppe, for his unbelievable pwning of hoyla mission, and some other stuff I can't remember anymore

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 21 Nov 2004, 22:42

i remember when i have first time beaten jeppe in internal level
i made 15.55 in freefall (week later i made wr), he had some 15.6x
i was so happy to beat my idol

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 22 Nov 2004, 16:43

my idols where the PRA team... remember when i and tobak sat at my house playing their Sahara levels for days... finally we got some records and that was BIG to get on their recordtables... After a while I got to know Julmust (3litre) and champion and they were really nice, down to earth people.. cahmpion helped our team APP alot back in the days with some replays and stuff...

Me and tobak were to visit julmust, mandel and the other guys at piteÃ¥ dansar Ã¥ ler one summer but unfortunately that never happend... would have been fun...

psy (anthro) also inspired alot to play with his ap-tracks... still play em!!

my first great idol was zyntifox just becoz he had both Warm Up and Flat Track WRs when I first found WR table, also he has the second coolest nick in elma history (after Deadelous)

speaking of Deadelous, he inspired me a lot and he always did have the right advice when i was trying a new internal trick, I think he is one of the greatest elma players ever :*
