Xy1a Celebrity Interview!

Date: Sep 24 2008 19:40:18 Source: Official Views:

The 16th of September was a hazy summer morning in the world of CO. The leafy orchards west of Twin City would have made for a lovely stroll, were it not for the vicious man-eating robins that roost there. Despite these dangers, the Paragon managed to climb the steps of the stone altar, where he would hopefully meet Xy1a, a famous and celebrated personality of Snow White Server.

Much to his surprise, there was a modest party going on, all centered around Xy1a and her entourage of fans. A barwoman attended the altar, where the old temple ritual table now served as a makeshift bar for Xy1a's favorite morning poison stiff malibu and coke, yes, even in the morning!

A couple of brave fans also made it to the altar, where they leapt around in circles waving and dancing like noobs in the springtime. And then he saw her.

TheParagon: Hi Xy1a
Xy1a: Hi :-)

Oh sure, there were rumors of Xy1a's beauty, but this was something else. Her pixels were radiating! The paragon couldn't be sure whether the pixels were cute, sexy or just downright awesome, so he decided to sneak a peek at her gear.

TheParagon: May I check out your gear?
TheParagon: Oooohhh, sparkly!
Xy1a: You did anyway :P
Xy1a: My archer coat is nicer xD
TheParagon:

You've got some pretty flash stuff there!

Just as the P was looking, a dark shadow fell over him. A tall, powerful looking guy stood there... the kinda guy who could PK a genie pig with the heel of his boot.

TheParagon: Ummm... Who's your friend?
Xy1a: Haha, he's my dutchy!
Xy1a: My dutch friend xD
TheParagon: He looks nice... So where are you from?
Xy1a: Liverpool, England. Moving to Wales next week for university.
TheParagon: Cool! Requesting permission to use British spelling? And perhaps a few words like "git" and "trounced"!
Xy1a: Of course :P
TheParagon: So what's your vocation? What do you do during your day-life?
Xy1a: Well, I'm a student, working in Subway up until next week. During the day, when I'm not in work, usually drive to random places with friends! Or get drunk and bring pizza and alcohol to garages and open up the Subway...
TheParagon: Ahhh, Subway, how I miss thee.
Xy1a: You get better sushi than us. :P And pandas!

At that very moment, a vicious robin flew down and pecked Xy1a's #1 fan to death!

Xy1a: Oh well, plenty more where that came from. =P

As the blood ebbed and flowed down the altar stairs, both Xy1a and the Paragon shrugged. After all, the fan was a total noob - what the hell did they expect in the west of TC?

TheParagon: Lets open up some of your fan's questions, then :)
Xy1a: Sure ^^
TheParagon: Hail~Dissection asks "How long you have played Conquer online?"
Xy1a: Since 2 weeks after the opening of Glory, around April 2005 I think? I've quit and rejoined a few times in between, though.
TheParagon: That's a long time - and quite a few characters too. Randeh asks "Have you played each class of character (Trojan, Fire, Water, Warrior, Archer) at some point, if so which class is your favorite, and if you haven't played a class of character, why not?"
Xy1a: I love archers, but I can't play them for too long before they annoy me. Taos have too many skills! And warriors are too weak. So Trojans, without a doubt. :P Both of my mains have been Trojans.
TheParagon: Yeah, I hear you... Warriors are a hard road to victory. Randeh also asked "What do you feel about the Potency system? Do you think it's fair?"
Xy1a: I don't think it is! I remember when 115-125 Trojans were quite evenly matched. All of them could almost 1 hit each other, potency (or battle power -_-) has screwed it.

At that point, another player stumbled upon us. He had a wild and dangerous look in his eyes, as if he wanted to use elephant genie pig as the dressing for his PK salad.

TheParagon: Are we in trouble? Is that guy dangerous?
Xy1a: Immortal? Nah, and I'd kick his ass anyway :P
TheParagon: Oh, phew... I can't even pick up items in this form.

A momentary dance of skills played back and forth between Immortal and Xy1a before he left in search of easier prey.

TheParagon:  Temporary Hellz (this guy is funny) says "What do you feel about the gms having a combined IQ of 137?"
Xy1a: Haha, I feel it's very frustrating!
The Paragon: Oh, sorry about that. The other GMs are really busy, you know. But IQ tests in my country only go up to 140 anyway - so, if they combine powers and form Voltron, their combined intelligence is that of a supra genius!
Xy1a: Sure, there's language barriers, but it can get very frustrating at times, trying to get a problem resolved when you just get ignored or get a completely irrelevant answer to your question! But then you get awesome GM's like Paragon so it's oke. =P
TheParagon: Shammy asks "Do you like pie? If so what flavor?"
Xy1a: Being from northern England, we love pies! lmao!! Steak and kidney pie. ^^ Or if it's a sweet pie, apple, or any type of berry!
The Paragon: Mmmm... Pies are good... Next question - you choose funny or serious?
Xy1a: Here, and even offline, I choose to be funny almost all of the time! I am very serious when I need to be, but that's not often!
The Paragon: Okay, I have a "-Badjosa-" and "war>war>water" question!
Xy1a: Sure ^^
The Paragon: "-Badjosa-" and war>war>water - they sure talked a lot on your interview thread - what are they fighting about?
Xy1a: Oh that? I don't know either, I think they're both just too happy like usual
The Paragon: Ah, happiness! It makes us crazy, no? Well, anyway, they finished their little scrap with a comment that actually did make me LOL! (not CQTM like usual... chuckle quietly to myself).
Xy1a: Which was?
The Paragon: They said "So...I think we spammed the **** out of Xy1a thread. She's going to kick us both in the junk tomorrow." Was there some junk kicking last night? Who got pwned?
Xy1a: I just laugh! First time I met him when we merged, he captured me red named! I didn't even know him, just laughed it off and we're good friends now!
The Paragon: Wow! The mighty Xy1a has been captured and went to prison? For how long?
Xy1a: I was only red named and paid some cash to get out...I might ask him to pay me back actually, he'll have to save some db money and not waste it as usual.
The Paragon: That's funny! You're a jailbird, he he!
Xy1a: Wow! Lol!

Suddenly, the universe was disrupted... and by that, I mean TheParagon did something uber dumb and closed the game window (reminds me of a comment about combined IQ of 137...). Realizing his stupidity, he beat his flappy elephant ears and reappeared in the game to resume the interview.

TheParagon:  Trunks asks "So how do you feel about the upcoming ninja class?"
Xy1a: I'm fine about it, so long as it doesn't end up better than a Trojan, and doesn't make a better rb combo than Wat > War >Tro. Lol
The Paragon: I hope the ninja weighs in between warrior and Trojan, but I really don't know. Maybe it will be more powerful and "trounce" the other classes.
Xy1a: The ninja can go to the hell then, or make it possible to have 3rd reborn characters so I can have one!
TheParagon: Who knows what the designers have in store, eh?
Xy1a: Probably be better than both since it needs new items apparently. And means more cash brought in if everyone buys new items which will be rare :P
The Paragon: True... LenoKytes and Trunks0006 both asked "Where do you stand in the whole Bulkers V Non-Bulkers debate?"
Xy1a: I can't say an awful lot, I've bought DBs since I started, in all that time I've only bought one bulk. Peoples attitudes tend to change when they get stronger. But otherwise if they have the money to, sure.
The Paragon: If you wanna go to the top, it get's pricey, right?
Xy1a: Well, since potency, I really do get owned by a lot of people, but I play for fun, not to be the best.
TheParagon: Blue~Cloud asks a great question: "What do you think of guys who play female characters in game?" (I'm guilty, he he)
Xy1a: That they want free items. =P
TheParagon: Ha ha ha - No!!! I'm going for strawberry milkshake with Kevin GM!!!! touche!
As the interview was drawing to a close, we finished with a few personal questions.
TheParagon: What is your opinion on online relationships? Ever had a long stander?
Xy1a: I have indeed, a year or two I think it lasted, who I met on Conquer, we met a few times offline, but it didn't work out in the end, the distance was too much.
TheParagon: Gotta agree with that - absence makes the heart grow fonder, but not a mile closer.
Crossing his fingers, the elephant genie pig made asked.
TheParagon: heavens_fury asks "Are you going to go out for strawberry milkshake with the gm who talked to you?"
Xy1a: No!!! I'm going for strawberry milkshake with Kevin GM!!!!
