i don't really know anything about starcraft but i was just randomly reading about some of the top players and stumbled upon an interview with the norwegian player slayer, who supposedly is like the only european who could ever keep up with the koreans. in this interview he says the only other game he plays is elastomania! the interview is from back in 2004 but i am wondering if we know who this is and why he didn't become the greatest elma player of all time?!
OMG

For the same reason that Zweq didn't became the best starcraft player either.

Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
sure. but if this guy played elma just a little more than just for fun it would be really interesting to know how good he was. and maybe some of the norwegian kuskis know this guy and can tell something?!
Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
interest shared. are people good in some games good in other games too? why is jellow so jelly? etc.
Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
I found a picture, but I don't know who he is
Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
I went to same school as him actually...
He is two years older than me I think, but I don't know anything about his elma skills...

Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
it doesnt seem logical to think that because he is good at starcraft he should be good at elma. starcraft is more methodical, whereas elma is more reactionary, which are two different types of thinking/gaming.

He's about 25-30 now, so your semen still worked at the age of 70. That's some accomplishment!Bismuth wrote:The world is tiny!

Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
it's hard to say. of course you are not wrong but i wouldn't say you are right either. someone like jeppe is as far as i remember pretty good at starcraft and also really good at elma. and if you take someone like zweq, he is pretty good at any kind of game he tries.gimp wrote:it doesnt seem logical to think that because he is good at starcraft he should be good at elma. starcraft is more methodical, whereas elma is more reactionary, which are two different types of thinking/gaming.
i'm just saying that it is really really interesting that one of the most talented starcraft players ever has played, what can only be guessed, but what seems to be a considerable amount of elma. think about how competitive starcraft is. it would be really fun to know how good times he got and how fast.
edit: oh. just a thought that's not totally related but still... it would be so cool if some kuski was like filthy rich and willing to donate a ton of money to be used as prize money in an elma contest, just to draw some of the top gamers to elma and see what they could accomplish.
Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
50 euro contest? liek what a smashing success that was.
Re: norwegian starcraft guru slayer plays elma omgwtfbbq
it would have to be more than people could make from playing other games.
