zbone: Please introduce yourself. How old are you?
Scooby: eyol! My name is Grzesiek Radzimirski, i live [used 2 live] in Slupsk in the north of Poland 20km away from the sea.
I was born on the 23rd April (zodiac - taurus babyyyy!) 1985 so atm im 20 years old!

zbone: What's your education?
Scooby: In 2004 i had finished my high school and passed mature exam which was a pass to college - i completed
1st year of math academy with specification "mathematic counting systems" but as far as u know i move out from Poland so i wont be able to continue it here - i plan to start new "learning process" @ usa.

zbone: What are you doing in real life?
Scooby: my real life isnt complicated, im rather a chilled guy who doesnt drink, smoke etc. Parties hmm i rather go
to cinema or hang around with friends in parks or in the street and fool around with them than try 2 act like i feel comfortable with all those alien ppl around me at clubs :] i love sport, i love 2 watch football @ tv, play only if there are conditions (weather...) and of course i cant live without a gym which i get used to after 5 years of trainin (sport/health = basic of life rememba kidz!)

zbone: What would you like to devote yourself?
Scooby: digital chillout, i devote 100% into things that i really care about, usually its gym/sport + competiting
in different things in my life, when i care about something i will die but i will reach my aim! sky aint the limit!

zbone: What is the source of your incomes? Work, parents, bank robbery? :)
Scooby: i live with my mom & 2 older bros and my little bro - the devilish dog! i study/use 2, i dont work and i live @ my moms home and when ill move out from here i gonna live with my dad @ usa, fuck the money "mo money mo problems" :]

zbone: If you had spare evening with no friends available, what would you do?
Scooby: hmm depends on my vitality, if im tired i just lie on the bed and watch tv/computer, if i feel good i usually play/ or fool around on irc/messenger with my friends

zbone: Your top3 music performers and why?
Scooby: it wouldnt be fair if i mentioned more than one - Chicane - it was an artist who made me become an "other person" i rememba 1997 winter hollidays when i 1st time heard Chicane - Offshore and played for two weeks @ diablo 1
and Nox while i was listening to that one mp3! Since then im kinda music addicted, cant imagine my life without music!

zbone: Your top3 movies and why?
Scooby: Blow, Devils Advocate, Vanilla Sky - 1st of them, hmm i love those ups and downs in main characters life,
the film shows that cash isnt important in life "Money isnt real! It doesnt matter, it only seems like it does!", 2nd film is about devil and his idea of this world, i dont believe in god and i rather serve devil than jezus, in the movie Pacino says very specific words there about the greatest joke of human world - made by god "watch but dont touch, touch but dont taste, taste but dont swallow", the 3rd is a love story, it shows how many ways in life we can choose and how could everything end if we had a 2nd chance! "Consequences! Its the little things, the little things, there is nothing bigger, is there?" or "cya in another life when we both will be cats!"

zbone: What your girlfriend (if available) think of your q2 gaming, especially amount of time you spent on playing q2?
Scooby: my life in last years was kinda busy since i was addicted @ gym and use to be tired all the time, and i guess
making my own life - the way im livin doesnt fit with having a girl, at least "girl" in regular life, she would start to hate me after 2 weeks cose i wouldnt go to her only beacuse i dont feel that i really wanna it! thats the key of my life - i do whatever i wanna and whenever i wanna (at least try to do and to do things available for me - cash etc...) and dont care what ppl say - i prefer the life of the single! :] im too young to lose my freedom, sounds funny but u cant imagine what "free" means to me!

zbone: How do you like instagib games?
Scooby: instagib is nice but only on low ping/lan ping or biggest=30, which is impossible at least for me to play across
europe with that ping, I must admit that playing insta for more than 30-45m is very very very tirefull! and a little bit boring! The best thing is when u start winamp, connect to the server and start to kill - thats the fun! whining about servers @ cb insta cup etc suuxxxx!

zbone: How long are you going to keep playing q2?
Scooby: hmm my 2nd movie [feel free to download --> http://q2scene.net/ds/index.php?op=dd3&id=1120680447 ]
was kinda a "goodbye for the q2 scene" at least for sure with europe and polish scene, dunno maybe i'll play some q2 @ usa till q4 comes but i doubt that there gonna be some "real" leagues which i got used to @ Poland and Europe :( [their scene isnt organized so well and heard that there r many many cheaters which is at least a good reason to not run the leagues - whats the idea of runing leagues for cheaters? thought it should evolve the true champ? respect for those who play fair!)

zbone: What do you think of upcoming q4?
Scooby: q4 hmm i think most of us are waiting for this game, personally i think thats the one and only game which
can unite all those quakers and other games players! for many it will be also a barrier which they wont pass - the computer issue - at least here in Poland most of us will not have cash to uprgade our pcs to such a high lvl! about the game? hmm on screens it looks promising! after all its ID game, even if it was a shit ppl would play it! u cant stop them! :]

zbone: Is there a future of q2 in Europe? Slow and quiet death or..?
Scooby: like i have mentioned above, q2 wont die, maybe the scene will be smaller but for sure not dead, for few reasons; 1st is that computer upgrade - 2 expensive, 2nd for many/most of those players who left there @ scene q2 is a sentiment, 3rd ppl arent 15-16 as they were when q2 was realased, we all got older and as far as i know the older u get the harder u adapt! FOR GOD SAKE... Q4 is comming and we talk about Q2 DEAD? :]]]]] isnt it funny!


zbone: What do you think of q2 compared with other shooters?
Scooby: For sure Quake2 has the best 4/4! The teamplay in Quake2 is just genius! Pitty that it was so quickly "left in the back" by tournament organisators but i guess it had 2 be like that! Year by year Q2 evolved and they can only regret that they had left such a emerald which became a diamond! I must admit that only Quake3 and maybe Pain Killer were good shooters besides Quake2, not comperable but for sure they deserve to be mentioned because all other shooters are just a missunderstood if u are talking about "longer playin"!

zbone: We all know that you leave Poland and Europe. That wasn't great news at all. Can you tell why USA? Why do you leave?

Scooby: Hmm i leave Poland where i rised and gonna live in USA. First it was just a plan "summer holliday + qcon" but l8r i changed my mind and ignored 1 year of studying hear and decided that it will be better for me to go there and organize my life, i love Poland and i hope that one day i will come back here but for now its not written in my mind and future plans! Every man has to take his hard decisions, this was a very hard one for me but i never regret anything and will "organize my new life".


zbone: There is big Q2 event in August in USA. QCon 2005. And I know you are going participate so there are few questions about that:
- zbone: Have you found sponsor or own money?
- zbone: What's your predictions? Who else from top Euro players will be there?
- zbone: What do you think of tournament system there? Are you beware of first FFA tour on dm8?
- zbone: What will be your practice look like begore this event?
Scooby: Unfortunately i wont participate... bah i wont be even @ USA then, if i knew that my "papers renew" gonna take so long I would organize TOURIST VISA for QCON but it was too late... in may i was even sure that i gonna reach USA in july but the fuckin bureaucracy... eh sadness! I gues it had 2 be like that... but i will try to answer your questions:
- i didnt have sponsors, my dad is organizing my travel etc
- predictions? hmm as far as i know from the elite euros only PURRI gonna make it so gl Mike! Wish You all the best and prove where is their place!
- the whole tournament is kinda weird, ffa dm8 isnt bad after all, but best of 1 in every round gives a lot to wish... ignore those
little issues and u can notice the good things - a big International LAN Quake2 Tournament! in 2005th yaer!!!
- i kept practicing for almost 1-1,5 month and 1-1,5 week ago i realised that im done and wont appear at QCON so i stoped playin, but must said i own QCON something, beacuse of that tournament i found Q2 1vs1 nice once again! After 3-4 years of real 1vs1 break i realized that i didnt enjoy 1vs1 beacuse of those timers etc! And i guess thats the way how my Q2 journey should end! I started as 1vs1 player and finished as dueler!
