Quote: "I am really looking forward to this event because it's right after a huge amount of exams, because it's in Paris, because I will meet up with a lot of good friends, because I heard it would be really good this year and because it's ESWC :-). Hopefully I will shape up really well in the boot camp at Paris with some other top players. Can't wait. :-)"

Quote: "This ESWC will probably be the last UT2004 1on1 tourney ever. Loads of players are going to bootcamp and so will I. I have no goals set for myself this time, except on being as prepared as possible on any playingstyle. I also see no clear winner at this point except Lauke. All players are relatively new, so it will be a very interesting tournament!"
