Interview with a Vampire (mod style)

[CaesarXVI]

Looks like i didnt win for this week. :P

[SickbyDefinition]

I'll announce the winner tomorrow! There's still a little time to get your submissions in, guys!

[CaesarXVI]

Sick, if theres no winner, just put the names who entered in a hat, and then pick one to choose the Winner! What do ya think?

[SiphonXP]

I would assume it is closest, I doubt anyone would get interviewed if it was exact...

[eric0095]

I'm pretty sure it says in the OP that the closest guesser will be interviewed...

Each week I will pick a random number, 1-500. If you would like to be picked, guess a number and PM it to me by Tuesday night. Wednesday morning I will announce who was closest and that person will be interviewed.

You two need to re-read the OP apparently.

[CaesarXVI]

Haha lol you were right sorry lol

[SickbyDefinition]

Alright everyone! All the submissions are in, and we've got our interviewee


This week will be KrazyKazza
Her guess was 387, the closest guess to 429, this week's number of choice!


If you would like to submit questions for her, now's the time to do so. I will coordinate with her and announce when the interview will be posted. You have until Friday to submit questions!

[KrazyKazza]

KrazyKazza: An Inside Look

First of all thank you for being the guinea pig! Let's start off with some basic information, so everybody can get to know you!
How did you get involved with Evony, and how long have you been here?
lol, nerves...

hehe, take your time.
I was playing FB games (Mob Wars and City of Ash) with a friend /levelling partner and we had reached the top of the game and the game was also sold as an app for iphone. So no future. My son suggested Evony and said he woul be able to beat me here. He gave up after a week and 2yrs later Im still here.
My friend quit about a year ago due to real life stuff

Ah I see.
I saw you mentioned your son, so you're a mother. How many children do you have?
Two a boy 19 and a girl 16

Haha so they're the reason you're addicted. So you squeeze in parenting and evony in pretty well, do you work?
At the moment I am out of work, anyone wanting a mad scientist and is willing to pay well please speak up As for parenting yeah I do but the other side isboth are quite grown up now and do their own things so Im kinda redundant except for 'what's for dinner?' 'Can I have some money?' and being a taxi driver for them lol. Both are great kids and we get on extremely well but ...well...I'm not needed as a full time mum now.

Oh, science eh? I myself am into biology. What field are you in?
Im biology too but my work took me into Cancer and Paediatrics and Clinical Trials.
I guess it could be summarised as testing new agents and ensuring the trials are done according to ethical standards on one side, the other is designing the tests that determine the outcome of the agents and ensuring the best possible outcome is achieved with fully trackable documentation and samples etc

Wow. That's really awesome. It's always neat to see the kind of people we have on our forums, many have impressive professions.
What other sorts of entertainment are you into, besides Evony? Are you a booknerd, or a movie fanatic?
Ooh difficult one to answer.
Im not stuck on any one kind of film or actor or novellist. In fact Im useless at remembering who wrote what or acted in a certain film. I guess I tend to follow what takes my fancy and how I feel that day. I like action movies, lots of guns and a good twist in the plot but will happily sit and watch a film like Pretty Woman too. I hate stupid comedy films with a passion and avoid them at all costs. Examples of likes are Oceans 11, Girl with Dragon Tattoo, LOTR, Apocalypse now - so varied. TV I guess my favs are Friends and Big Bang Theory. Books are whatever I can get hold of and if it grips me I will read it in a day and forget everything - even hungry kids.
I love cooking, most of the time its out of my head stuff but I do try recipes or interpretations of what I think will be nice. I can bake and make awesome cakes lol.
The most recent passion is gimp and photoshop and Im trying hard to get to grips with art. Sometimes its good, most of the time its not so good but I am definitely improving.
So I guess the answer is Im neither a bookend or movie fanatic, I go with the flow

Oh, wow. That's a lot of information, haha!
Hobby's are great.
So do you create sigs for people?
If asked yes. I havent done many because many havent asked...

Well maybe you'll get some publicity!
So let's mix it up, and take some member questions. How does that sound?
worrying lol

Alright, the first: If you had to choose between being poisoned by a deadly frog or swallowed by an anaconda, which would you choose?
lol
Hmm an anaconda I have half a chance to fight and may be swallowed whole and of course as I always carry my sword with me I could cut my way out if I hadnt defeated it first
Frogs are no good unless they are the kissable, turn into prince types

Soo, the anaconda, eh?
yeah
all girls love snakes :P

Haha interesting choice. I myself have no idea
Two: Do you take shampoos and conditioners from hotels?
of course! and the soaps and packs of bicuits too
I have never taken the hairdyer which a friend of mine did after being conviced everything was complimentary

Oh my. Bad decision.
Alright, three: If you could never use nailclippers to clip you toenails again, and your only option was to bite your toenails to keep them trimmed, would you?
Not unless I had taken some major yoga lessons. I would pay to have them done. I do already to a certain extent.

Oh no, you only option to keep them trimmed was to bite them.
It's bite them, or never cut them again.
no I would use ingenuity because my teeth will never reach my feet unless a miracle occurs.

I guess you'd find a way :P
yeah I would probably make siphon x cut them for me as penance for his trolling

Haha Oh I will definitely be putting that in the post
That's all for the user submited questions, so to wrap up the interview i'd like to ask you about your experience on the forum. Positive, negative?
In the main positive because the banter is spot on and it is moderated well by you guys. In terms of the higher ups I dont think they particpate in a way that is encouraging and tend to cause more friction by closing threads, not answering or doing disappearing tricks or spending too much time on lesser evony sites such as twitter. But yeah I love it in the main
