User of the Week #12: Jazzaboy

So, the User of the Week #12 is Jazzaboy. Jazzaboy is Australian and he joined Kongregate on 6 Aug. 2009. As of 22 Aug. 2010 he's ranked 192nd. Also, this is my first interview.

- How did you think up of your name?
- Jazza sounded pretty cool and just added the 'boy' on the end for lulz.


- What do you think of Kongregate Elite?
- I think that dividing the team up really ruins what WP is about. It was about coming closer together not breaking us further apart.
- Yeah, there are also two other Kongregate teams (Ninja Chat and Nederlandse Kongregate Clan) and I think it would be better if there was only one, we'd have over 200,000,000 keys more, we'd be closer together and we'd be ranked higher.
- Couldn't agree more.


- What is your goal in WhatPulse?
- Right now, I'm just trying to break the 1mil mark. But my main goal would be to get in the top 10.
- Yeah, and seeing so many people leaving makes it easier to get the the top 10 :P But yeah, 1 million? You'll get there soon.
- 70k away. :3


- Why and when did you join WhatPulse?
- I joined what pulse about 2 months ago. I joined it because I was new to the forums and wanted to meet everyone. It seemed like a good thing and I still enjoy it.



- Who's your main opposition in WhatPulse?
- Theres a lot of people who I like to beat. But most people around my rank are inactive. :o I think prolly Live2Die would be one of my main opposition.


- Who'll win the Australian election?
- I think Julia Gilliard. Because Tony Rabbit annoys me. :o To be honest I like Greens better than both of them.


- Mudkip or Smugleaf?
- Mudkip all the way. ;)


- Any WhatPulse tips or tricks?
- Chatting is my favourite way to get keys. It's easy, fun and doesn't give you a sprained hand.
- Yeah, another tip by the way, being on this IRC channel will give you about 10k a day :o
- xD See works on every chat.


- Great to interview you! :D
- Okay I'm off to dinner. Thanks for the interview.


It was fun to interview Jazzaboy and the next Users of the Week will be tetrismaster and videogames518. If you'd like to be interviewed, just say so in the Kongregate @ WhatPulse thread and maybe we'll do so.

    Alright, I seriously feel the need to make a comment about this:

    Or you could, like.. Get over it? Seriously, you guys are all butthurt because some people decided they wanted to be on a different team? Big deal. You guys are all about the glory of being the best team, which is fucking ridiculous. It's fine to be a bit competitive, but the way some of you get about it is really stupid.

    Try working for a personal goal instead, rather than being so damn worked up about people not meeting your goals for the team you're on or not being on the team at all. It's this kind of stuff that is making people leave the team, a tonne of us are/were fed up about it.

    The new team came around about a week ago. You've had a few days to take it in, it's time to get over it.

  3. I agree with Sinapi, you guys need to get over this.

    Also, a comment about the interview- I really disliked this interview's style compared to past ones D:

  4. We're not hurt because you guys left the team, we just think the normal thing would be us to all be in the same team...

  5. "we just think the normal thing would be us to all be in the same team..."

    Well we think it is normal that we should be in the teams we like. I don't suppose that there should be an issue here now, should there?

    Sinapi's point is that we should have the freedom in choosing who or what we want to be with, and no one should have any right to dictate which team we should be in. If people want to be part of a different team, let them. Consistently forcing and enforcing your team and making people join yours at the exclusion of even considering others shows very poorly of your attitudes.

  6. (How did I not notice this earlier)

    I think it's fair to say that none of us would overly care if you joined another team. Fair enough, your choice. What I think Jaume and Jazza were saying in the interview was that having 4 teams jusst for Kongregate was just pointless.
