My interview with the great Solver Inflate your Upload Space

EyesOfNight- Welcome everyone, today I'm going to interview the great Solver. He is the Apolyton interviewer and he also....well he does a really good job at it and he really wants an interview so we thought we'd give him one. Solver, how are you doing today?
Solver- I'm doing fine, thanks.

EyesOfNight- Ok, lets get started. I hear you're in charge of int....what is that in your pocket?

Solver- That's the Pocket Protector 2001. It's guaranteed to stop all ink on contact and it even has a patented dual action cleaning system. I got it from a friend.

EyesOfNight- *Chokes back laughter* I see, and who is this friend? It must be a very special friend to get you something like that.

Solver- hee hee hee Oh he is. *Bats eyelashes*

EyesOfNight- "He"...nothing...wrong....with that. We live in a civilized society where people like you....are...accepted. So....lets get to the interview. I hear you're a really good interviewer, can you tell us a little bit about how you got that highly esteemed job?

Solver- MarkG gave me the job after I...*blush* Well you know...

EyesOfNight- Oh...well he's greek and they are known for being...well...gay. I mean afterall the great ancient greek civilization was gay....not that there's anything wrong with that. So what do you feel your greatest contribution to ACS is?

Solver- That would have to be my superior intellect which the peasants of Apolyton all admire and envy.

EyesOfNight- And let me be the first to say that I truly do envy you. :rollseyes: Now I hear you're having some troub...

Solver- I'm the ACS interviewer.

EyesOfNight- Yes I know...

Solver- I'm one of the most powerful people on apolyton.

EyesOfNight- That's wonderful, as a lowly servant of his majesty I feel compelled to kiss the ground you walk upon.

Solver- No really, I'm the Apolyton Interviewer.

EyesOfNight- ....

Solver- Why are you looking at me like that?

EyesOfNight- .....

Solver- .....

EyesOfNight- I'm going to kill you. I'm going to rip of your head and I'm going stick it on a pike and parade through out all of apolyton so that all may see.

Solver- I'm the Apolyton Interviewer.

EyesOfNight- Shut up.

Solver- I'm the Apolyton Interviewer.

EyesOfNight- *Jumps over the table* That's it, you're going to ****ing die!!!!

Number one was a smac player. . number two was a ctp player. . it's about time we get back to the community that started it all. . (and still the best civ game around) . . some Civ2 players. . i'd suggest

Scouse Gits for his work on the great library . . .

I guess they can post such an interview as a normal thread in OT, but if they want it included as one of the threads in each forum and keep it topped for all us to read, they will need MarkGs approval (or Solver depending on who wins the big fight!!)

Colon, making a list of questions is difficult. You need to know much about the person you're asking questions. BTW, if somebody wants to ask questions for FoA 4, mail me. if the person agrees, I'll post here saying who he is, if not, I'll just tell you he refused you, without naming the name.

Now THAT is an interview worth reading! Inflate your Upload Space

And now, the "Faces" concept will take on dimentions unforseen by it's creators, as an acidic, morally bankrupt corporate flunky interviews an acidic, corupt government flunky in a battle of wits that will most likely be far over the heads of the average apolyton poster.

Now this will be worth reading, and could lead to similar battles of intelects of matching ability, such as Giancarlo interviews evac, Saddam interviews Civnation2001, Rah interviews Ming (Who is Rah?), AnnC interviews MarkG, and many of fascinating matchups.

How about a poll not just of likely people to be interviewed, but also whom will do the interviewing? I'm sure someone would enjoy setting up such a poll.

All in all, this could bring the already popular feature to dazzling heights.

Eyes Of Night? Who is this Eyes Of Night person?

This is exactly the kind of thing that this feature is good for. apparently Eyes of night has a certain notoriety on these forums, and I have hardly heard of him (her) (it). I only know about people if I read their posts, or if they write a column. That's how I first heard of Horse, after all.
I had heard of Velocyrix before, but not Wes, before their interviews.

And I think the OT should be visited as well, even though I can't stand it myself. It's part of apolyton, and a great way to deal with a common problem. There are certainly Apolytoners there I haven't heard about.

Who is this Eyes of night, anyway?

Jay, if there were more people like AH, in on-topic, I'd run like hell in other direction. What's good about him? Posts I've seen from him were average at best, and he is very quick at insulting people, he can insult somebody in 2 posts.


But, he is an interesting poster and has contributed interesting ideas and discussions to the on topic and the off topic.

Solver- I hope you realize that most of the veterans have moved to the off-topic and will hardly remember some of these old (and new) on-topic posters. Thus, less people will enjoy the interviews.

Interviews with fun people would be interesting!
Ex: EVC, Giant Squid (good civ II scenarios and good civ IIer), Albert Speer (maybe Problems with my life Series I-XIV; I feel sorry for his life... I would like to see him discuss it more; if he wants) MikeH (spamking and interesting debator)
