[17:52] RockinTH: like

A cursory glance through facebook and his college website and yes, I could do that. :B
Could you make a joke about Rockin?
You seriously black?
Is there a story behind the name?
Did you make your avatar Sailor Uranus by choice or did Xiivi force it?
What's up with like, the female-only avatars and the female-only themes, and the well I really thought you were a girl at first?

Assume the following. You're at a gas station at about 11 PM. There is another car, an old Honda Civic, two pumps down from where you parked. A man is filling his tank at the pump. You just went inside to pay (there was another customer perusing the candy aisle and the attendant) and when you returned, the man outside is leaning against the car. The other man follows you outside from the store and the attendant is nowhere to be seen. The first man stands up from leaning against your driver seat and says, "I think I'll vote Rockin." The man behind you then says, "Then I guess I'll hammer and we'll have our lynch." Who do you assume they are, knowing only that they are male and what would you do in the situation?
Not that I endorse stalking or anything, yeah I was pretty aware of this since KY and OH are cool neighbors n such.
If you ever wanna chill sometime feel free to make the trip lol, I'm always open to having visitors (this pretty much goes for any Dgamer) and if you happen to come on a weekend we can party and n ****.
I endorse Marshy interviewing Rockin.
Will probably edit this post later with Qs for Rockin.

Any dgamer live near philly? :3
Can you list most of the newbs on Dgames, and compare them to their vet counterpart? (Which obv would be better, lol) in terms of style? Like is Swiss the Frozen Flame kinda thing.
I know you say that you'd rather have a stronger lylo/mylo team, can you explain what the newb team in Cine could have done better? How could we achieve that?
What is your plan to catch scum as town usually? What is your plan to frame town as scum?

Giving or receiving?
thanks for doing the interview. hows it feel to be the interviewee as opposed to the interviewer for once?
Hah, it feels great. I actually had doubts that I'd ever be interviewed, considering I didn't think no one would be the interviewer. I'm looking forward to answering these questions. ^_^
Can you explain the entire Hentai Mafia scenario from start to finish? If actually made real, what/who would've been your ideal role PM?
One day, Chaco made a thread called 'Hentai Mafia.' I was VERY skeptical of it, considering that it wasn't locked at all. I debated for awhile of whether it was a trick or not. The curiosity has gotten the better of me and I clicked on it...only to found out that it WAS a trick and that people stalked the thread to see if it was real. The worst part was that this thread counted on me getting the MVP dice! hahaha! As far as what role I'd have...I dunno. If I was a townie, I'm sure I'd have the Vanilla 'Virgin' Townie role. Would make sense, if one thinks about it. If I was Mafia, grand chance I'd get the 'Gangbang Mafia' role pm with a Roleblock ability. Hahaha
Why couldn't I find you at Katsucon? D=
I was mostly in the Artist Alley/ Dealers room area. I described to him what shirt I wore on that one day, which was a white shirt that had one of my favorite artist's characters on it (which is here http://shonuff44.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=72#/d2qauv8 ). I probably should've gave more of an effort and gave him my cell phone, but alas...I'm an idiot. I hope next time we go to Katsucon or some other place that we could actually meet up.
Can you tell how being the most popular DGames meme is?
It has his moments of laughter and annoyance. While it's fun that I'm the butt of the joke, I get annoyed how some of the others, specifically the newer members, treat the said joke. It makes it difficult to wonder if they really think I AM gay. One time, a member (not gonna say his name) sent me several gay pictures right at my way through either IM or by a message. I was Close to yelling at him, but I think I told him nicely to tone it down. When the vets do it, especially EE, it's actually more entertaining. Not cause they know I'm not gay, but the execution of it is actually more funny. He's probably one of the few I actually don't mind hearing gay jokes from....not that I encourage him to do more...hahaha
How DID this meme start enshrouding you?
There is this adventure game called 'The Fog,' and during the time I joined, it was near the end of completion. EE gave me one of the NPC roles known as Lt. Grizzwald, a army man in his 50s (if I remember right). I went into the forest and I met up with Sandy (Redcell's character). Now, here's when it gets funny. My character and his spoke to each other from the forest to the barn area on the other side. The mod (EE) told me after the walk was done that Sandy was in her bra and panties when I found her. Sooooo...since my character didn't seem to bat an eye at her, made it seem like he was reaaaaaally gay. This joke has somewhat carried on in 'The Dark Night' Batman game, where my character, Terry Gilliam, gets *********** one time after another by Catwoman (Tom)
Favorite vets to play with? Fav new players?
Hmm, I don't think I have much of a favorite. I guess it'll be Tom, cause he makes it challenging if I was Mafia. I also like Marshy, KevinM, and EE, who I'd wish would play a bit more. I do miss playing with Eor a bit more often. That guy needs to play more Mafia man. As for new players, I don't have a favorite. I'm too busy trying to find one that can co-operate with me hahaha.
Best preformances: Town, Mafia, Indie (if indie)
No doubt it was when I was Mafia in Hando's 'TLI Mafia.' It was my 2nd time as Mafia, and my team mates were Ronike (who was soon replaced by Xsyven) and Numbers (who was replaced by Omis). I was in a Mason with Junglefever (who was town) as well as having a roleblock ability. When they got replaced, I had to help take things in my own hands, had to tell Omis and Xsyven what should be done while trying to play puppeter with JF. Things were going well, even manage to keep the Tracker, Tom, at bay. I visited FF N2 with both a kill and roleblock and he saw me. I claimed as a TOWN Roleblocker when Tom put it up in the thread. It took awhile, but the info sunk into his head and he lynched another inactive townie instead. I had to manipulate Junglefever by feeding him a bit of lies (for one thing, I said my nighttime flavor was randomly dancing with others at night time). I wanted to kill Tom, but I needed to make sure if there was a doctor in game. So, when JJ was losing his townie cred, I told him to claim as Doctor so people would have faith in him, and to claim that he was visited last night so as to make me look good as well. He agreed on both, and did just that. That was also the day when I roleblocked Mentos. Unfortunatly, when I tried to scapegoat JJ by getting him lynched...I was lynched along with him. It turns out that I was a LOVER's role instead of a mason like I originally thought. Mafia lost the game, but I won that MVP slot.
I also did a good job in EE's Samuel L. Jackson 2 Mafia game. I was a Mafia Traitor with an execution ability (I believe). Didn't know who my mafia buds were, but I had an ability where I can visit someone at night and see if that person was a mafia member. I used it as more of a cop ability. cause if I did had a mafia head, I would have the choice of joining them or not. I had like...the best townie-like attitude ever and hardly anyone suspected me. On Day 5 (I think) I used my execution ability on Pythag, and it turns out he had a princess ability. That game, Mafia won the game and it was an awesome victory. ^_^
Worst preformances: Town, Mafia, Indie (if indie)
It had to be town. I seem to have the worst experiences whenever I'm town.Hahaha. In EE's Spider Mafia, I was a vig in that game. Now, everyone who knows me knows that when I get this type of ability, I get a bit trigger happy. It was one shot ability though, so I did my best to hold it for those who was the most scummiest. I was mostly quiet and hardly informative on D1, and one or two pointed me out to this. N1, I was hit with a silencing ability and I had a good guess of who it was. The silencing ability was something that made me post only once. The flavor, from my POV, looked like two people did the job and not one. I was frustrated on what to do and what to say...and I wasn't sure if I was going to live to see the next day. It looked so Mafia...to put it on a player who hardly talked D1. So I made this huge post that I was silenced, my opinon as to what happened that night with the results of two kills, and I described that two people were pretty scummy, who was warioman (swordsman,town, and new replacee of the guy who called me out D1) and Kirby King (Mafia). I decided to shoot warioman cause it would make sense for him to have that ability...as well as, from a mafia standpoint, would make me look bad being all quiet again D2. Turns out, I was right. However, he flipped Town and I got irritated. Mafia NKed me N2 cause they wasn't sure how many other shots I had left. To make matters worse, I gave Mafia more breathing room to be inactive, cause there was only 1 person on that Night ability...not two (and the person that did the silence was the one I killed). God, some of the townies, especially Nick, was mad at me lol
Time for a fill in the blank Rocking joke. This is going to be a mad lib. Give me two adjectives a noun and an adverb and I will have Sold2 post the completed joke when the results are up.
main, traditional, table, finally
How old are you, bro?
I am 24.
What's the best you've ever done in a smash event?
I don't know...I don't think I did anything spectactular at a smash tournament. I think one of the best things I've done was entering the 2006 MLG Melee tournament. It was also my very first tournament. I guess the reason I felt it was the best time for me was cause I met M2k (who doesn't remember me much, btw) and through a few friendlies, he opened a door to new posibilities. This was the time I didn't knew about wavedashing or the glitches in the game. It was something, and the guy was hardly using his full strength at me. I wish I hung out longer on that day...so I can go and play with all the other players like Ken and whatnot.
Why do you think your scum play is better than your town play?
When I am scum, my logic is a little more structured and I seem to try harder not to mess up with what I say. I've been told by both Marshy and Macman one day that when I'm town, I'm a bit more laid back and I don't seem to take it too seriously. But when I'm Mafia, I play a bit more seriously and that do my best not to be careless with my actions. It's wording like these I laugh whenever I'm lynched as town, some people 'can't seem to figure me out.' I feel that, out of all the vets, I'm the easiest to read. All one has to do is look at my motives a little better and people would see where I really stand.
What's your favorite Cher song?
I'm pretty unfamiliar with her music, so I don't really know what is a good music choice. Sorry!
Rockin, how many Rockins does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Only one, cause I'm good at this sort of thing.
Disregarding what actually happened in Inception mafia, would you say that the set up Inception mafia was geared towards the town?
Hmm....I don't think so. I think it was nicely balanced. You had a townie who could be lynched one vote less...and then you had an executioner role, which would be good for quick bussing. I can't remember what other roles Mafa had. Then again...an ability that rises townies from the grave does seem slightly in favor of town. Eh...I can say it was geared towards Town, but nothing dramatic.
If you could handpick two people to be on your scum team in a game, who would they be and why?
Craaaaaap that's a bit hard. Damn you for making me choose favorites! Hahaha. Let's see...I think it'd be EE and Tom. EE can help make my cases against townies if they ever go against me, as well as he'd make sure I didn't do anything n00bish. Tom is good in general and he could help sniff out flavors that goes on in the thread. He's really good at finding out who's who, and EE's good at baiting people to do what he want.
What do you think of the MVP system? Do you think Dgames has possibly become more divided over dice, or is it for the better?
I like the MVP system, cause it rewards the player for his hard work, whether he led the town to victory, or became Mafia and led him and his team to victory. I don't think it has become more divided, but it's not going for the better either. Some players see it as more of a competition then something that is meant for fun. That's not how DG is suppose to be. We reward players for good effort on their part, that's that. Therefore, I don't agree it there shouldn't more of a difficult way to get it, or different varieties of it. It's meant for fun and encouragement. Nothing more.
Why didn't you bus me in Sonic if it would lead to a guaranteed win?
One main thing I disliked in doing as a Mafia player is bussing one of my own Mafia members. I lived that spotlight from time to time, and to some and most cases, it benefits for Mafia. But at the same time? You're using your own for your team members gain. When you bus someone, you're purposly trying to get rid of a player, who may be enjoying that game...for whatever reason. Cause of the flavor, cause of the players...something. I never liked bussing my own. I really don't. I try to not use it. Only time I would use it is if that member went full ****** mode. A great example would be Pheniox Wright Mafia. I was a mafia with Gheb and Riddle, and Riddle was doing something totally retarted that I didn't like. So I was more in favor of bussing him, cause it was way too risky to have him alive. When I play as Mafia, I play to win...but I also play to win with my mafia buds.
Your sleepover themes are fantastic. What made you come up with the idea? Are you gonna continue em?
I came up with it after EE's 'Nowhere Man' Mafia game. I saw that Tom made a 'series' for his 'Tomafia' games and I wanted to make a series for myself. I wanted to try something a bit more original. Something that CAN be a series and is a reccurring theme. With all the 'killing' flavors and whatnot, I wanted to make it more fun and lulz-ish. That's how 'Mafia's Milkyway Sleepover' was born. It featured all of the female nintendo (and capcom) girls I favored. The flavors I made for it was suppose to be more fun and funny, so as to give readers a good read. Night actions would be more 'prank-ish' and serious as the Days moved on. And yes, I've plan to do a bit more, but unfortunately, there will be a ending...I'll probably make 2 more sleepover themes...but the last one is going to be a dooozy! Keep your eyes peeled for it, and I'm gonna make sure it'll be a blast! Don't worry though, I'll be sure to think of another good series to start on. Everyone seems to enjoy that 'Decisive Games Mafia' I made...lol
do you still enjoy playing mafia? if so do you enjoy it as much as you used to? if not why not?
Yes I do, but I'm not sure if I'm enjoying it as much. Lately, I've seen that logic seems to be thrown out the window. I'm not sure if it was just those unfortunate times when I joined a game, but it seems that legitimate cases are no longer there, or they seem to favor the more popular player...or the one with the biggest mouth. Normally when I'm lynched, there's usually a lesson for me to improve on what to do. Nowadays, I just seemed to get more frustrated on WHY I was lynched. Again, it's probably just the games that I've lately been in, but...argh.
any advice you wanna give new players on how to improve?
Think twice before doing an action, and think logically on what you're saying and replying to. It may seem flashy from the said player, but you have to really try and connect A to B and see if it makes sense. Stay away from WIFOM at all times, whether you're approching it or creating it. If all fails, then lynch. Do not be afraid to speak your mind if you feel something is suspicious to you, whether you're town, or playing as mafia. This goes against the Vets as well.
have you had any experiences in mafia games that left a serious impact on how you viewed the game or how you played? that taught you lessons and improved your play as a result? if so what were they?
Yes. Mega Mafia taught me two things: 1) Never dive so deep into flavor. It'll not be all of what it seems. I was a Townie with a watcher ability, and I was trying to decode the game in flavor form (Smashman was doing it as well). I even tried to do it in night time. As a result, we were blind sighted on things that were truly scummy. That was our main downfall. 2) Lynch all inactives. When Hando (Mega Man, Mafia) were inactive and hardly posting the thread. Taught me to lynch anyone inactive, even if it's how they play. I've also learned from a few games never rely on habits players used (Macman being inactive as town, Mentos being more fench sitting-ish as Mafia, etc). It's just wrong....and it doesn't provide a good case.
how was your day today? howve you been?
Been fine, thank you. Just been slightly bored today, tis all.
if you could meet and chill with 5 dgamers irl who would they be and why?
Evil Eye, Frozen Flame, Tom, Marshy and Mediocre. There's several others I want to meet and hang out with, but those are my five I really want to see. They'll all pretty cool people. I'm sure EE is gonna try to either make me drink some beer haha. I dunno, they're just the type of people I'd feel really comfortable hanging out with casually.
when can we expect manly campfire mafia to hit the queue?
NEVER!! hahaha. You see, right after 'Mafia Tournament Sleepover' I thought about doing a guy version, only it'd involve campfires, guys doing manly things (Like for example, I'd have a flavor where they would try and lynch the guy while killing off surrounding ninjas that tried to ambush him), and the said people would be popular American action actors. However, Marshy decided to gay up the idea, and so did a few other people. So I burned that idea...forever. Hahaha
Could you make a joke about Rockin?
Make a Joke about me? Never!...............................fiiiiine..."Ever heard of 'being between a Rock and Hard Place?' Replace 'A Rock' with Rockin and replace 'place' with thing and you'll see that Rockin is the originator of that joke along with his boytoy, Junglefever."
Ooooooh I'm sooo gonna regret this, I know it. LOL
You seriously black?
Yeeep. You can believe how many times people mistook me for a white guy. It's not my fault I speak with a nice and calm personality. Not to mention I speak proper instead of typing all AOLish.. haha. Recently, a canadian woman I spoke to mistook me for a canadian, cause of the fact I always say 'sorry' when I make a mistake, even when I truly didn't make it. But yeah, I'm a Black African American, and proud of it
Is there a story behind the name?
The name from my father, Ronald Luckie (senior. I'm the II ). It's his nickname when he's doing DJ work. The full name is 'Rockin Rizon.' He said he got it from a child's drawing. Since I was his son, it was passed onto me, to which I was known as 'Rockin Rizon Jr.' I used it as my own personal nickname, but I've also given this nickname to, ironically, a character I drew when I was 15 in high school. I even given both my name and my character's name a reason why it's there. "It's cause I rock!" which would mean, that I help support my friends the best way I can.
Did you make your avatar Sailor Uranus by choice or did Xiivi force it?
I had to put it, cause I knew I was going to be hassled to put it on. Funny enough, I forgot who Uranus was and was more looking at WHY namewise of why I was given that name. It was a bit fun while it lasted, haha
What's up with like, the female-only avatars and the female-only themes, and the well I really thought you were a girl at first?
Hahahah! Well, the thing is is that Peach is actually like, my favorite Nintendo character. I thought about putting Meta Knight at the time, but I was like 'eh, I like Peach more.' All of the avatars I've chosen were mere cowincidence that they were women, including Sailor Uranus
Assume the following. You're at a gas station at about 11 PM. There is another car, an old Honda Civic, two pumps down from where you parked. A man is filling his tank at the pump. You just went inside to pay (there was another customer perusing the candy aisle and the attendant) and when you returned, the man outside is leaning against the car. The other man follows you outside from the store and the attendant is nowhere to be seen. The first man stands up from leaning against your driver seat and says, "I think I'll vote Rockin." The man behind you then says, "Then I guess I'll hammer and we'll have our lynch." Who do you assume they are, knowing only that they are male and what would you do in the situation?
Either thugs who want my money, or gay Mafia players who's doing some gay remarks. I'd try to kick their *** by grabbing the nearest weapon before they (god forbid) try to take mine. First thing I'd do is kick the nearest guy around me (most likely the guy right behind me), then make sure to ready myself with an attack incase the guy near the car tries to help the other. My main point is to beat the crap out of them as best I can before I go to my car and drive off....hopefully avoiding a 'night kill'
Can you list most of the newbs on Dgames, and compare them to their vet counterpart? (Which obv would be better, lol) in terms of style? Like is Swiss the Frozen Flame kinda thing.
That's going to be difficult, cause everyone has such a unique style, and I don't have a fair grasp of the new players yet, or their styles. I havn't been playing a lot of games with the new players. I'll give it a shot though. Swiss is the new Hando, excluding the fact that Swiss is always scum. The reason why he's the new Hando cause everything he does has a scummy aroma, and you're unsure wether he's really scum or not. The fact that he coasts is another issue on hand. He's smart, but eh. Cello is Marshy, minus the logic. He knows how to get people to listen to him...but he seems to fail on what is really scummy, and what isn't (Least that's from my prospective). The guy can push, and get his voice heard though. Don't know who else I can probably compare others with...haha
I know you say that you'd rather have a stronger lylo/mylo team, can you explain what the newb team in Cine could have done better? How could we achieve that?
I've said this in the thread already, but one really needs to stand back and look at the issue before hand, as well as look at the logics and possibilities of what could be true, and what could be fake. Let's look at the scenario again: J, 'town executioner' pressured Ranmaru, the claimed doctor and proven doc even with Vocal's track on him to one person and not two (cause during that same night, there was a kill). How could what J did be considered town? A Watcher who has used his ability that night during a kill...be mafia, despite J confirming that he did saw him go from A to B....how could he be mafia? How can a watcher be Mafia? THESE are the type of things one should ask themselves. Also, trying to guess the mod's mechanics was something that shouldn't be done. Another thing that should be avoided was the WIFOMing, to which both the Mafia and townies did themselves doing. Another thing was the attitude that seemed to shift. Notice how J never attacked the water at all until waaay later on in the day? Gotta notice these things...
What is your plan to catch scum as town usually?
No huge plan. Just look and see how everyone reacts. See who contradicts, and try to find leads. Ask questions when needed more info. I don't have much of a huge elaborate plan. It's pretty basic. That's why I don't consider myself good compared to the other vets haha
What is your plan to frame town as scum?
Use my 'Herp Derp' powers on them, making them look silly. Sometimes I make them second guess themselves. I try my best to be really crafty with my plans, sometimes even sacrificing myself so as to get others to spill info. Greatest example was Monster Mafia, where EE and KevinM were planning to bus me. I given permission to fight back, so did my best to look good...and when it came down to claiming, I used one of the characters who had a split personality, which made Marshy back off almost immediatly. Claiming like that not only bought me some time, but it made others claim as well. It was awesome. My main plan as Mafia is to either keep everyone safe, or be the wrench to town by making them look either silly or making a player claim a specific role.
say a bunch of stuff about Batman and other A-Games
(rockin decided to skip this in favor of ees questions cuz this was too vague and ee hit me up with more adventure game questions during the interview)
Do you love me?
Bah, no way. I like Junglefever. We can get along just nicely....pluuuuus I still get most of his stuff. Nothing personal, Chaco :-P
Do you get annoyed about people thinking you're gay?
Yeah, some times to most. Again, some people either don't make it funny, I get concern if they really think I'm gay, or when people take it too far. I don't want to be an *** and yell at them with it, cause I don't want people to think I can't take a joke. I can...but...eh.
Are you gay?
Nope. I'm pretty straight. I have a interest in women only, and that ain't gonna change anytime soon.
Oh....and to add justice to my signature...ARE you still a virgin?
Bah, a bit of a personal question, and should be glad that I have a open enough mind to answer it. But yes, I am a virgin. Thing is...I want a GF, but I'm not really trying to find one. I need to make sure I'm up to par for finding one. Even if I was ready for one, I can't seem to find a girl I really like...or who's not single. One day though. ^_^
Giving or receiving?
Neither. See, this is the type of 'gay jokes' that I mean that are a negative light in my eyes. =/
Tell us a little bit about your journey as Robin, from when you first put on the suit, to slowly emerging as a competent hero.
It was a bit of exciting to me. Terry Gilliam went through many situations, and has also had a bit of a character development. The guy went from being a thug, to a neutral person having a better life, to becoming a hero. Technically, this is my second game, but I consider it as my 'first' considering I've actually STARTED on a game instead of being at the near end in 'The Fog.' I faced a lot of conflicts in the game, and I've met some situations where I wish I was doing better. Thing was, during the whole game, I had a bit of a confidence problem. I did decently well on some NPC combat, but when it came to fighting players? I almost always lose. I kept getting frustrated when I either failed to capture them or save someone. It hurted my morals, and I'm sure it was apparant to EE. The worst of is that my 'partners' were hardly helpful. Batman (Scav) was inactive, which wasn't his fault entirely. Guy has a life, you know. Gorden was also hardly helpful sometimes to most. My only ally was Catwoman (Tom) and he was more of an anti-hero in the game. The entire game was fun and challenging, as I've got to explore and was quickly getting the grasps of the game. My only regret was not activating that Pinger when Joker pulled a fast one on me...as well as not living long enough to do that match between myself and Marshy, or Joker vs Robin.
Describe your adversarial relationship with Henri Ducard, the Faraway Tree Killer. How it started, burgeoned, etc. What was it like to finally capture him? Were there any circumstances under which you would have killed him? How did you feel when you found out he had been released after you died?
The conflict between my character and his (who was ran my Marshy) didn't start till after the guy killed an officer Terry knew. He was his room mate, and had a girlfriend along as well. A bit of a goof, but was proud that he gotten a job at the police force, Thanks to Terry's suggestion. It...hurted him, a lot. To see his best friend and room mate killed like that. He wanted revenge...but now that he was a crime fighter, he couldn't do it in a bloody mess that he wanted to. He wanted to do it right, even though killing him would make him rest in peace easier. When it came that time, it felt great to capture the *******. I felt very relieved that he was behind bars, as he wouldn't kill no one else. At the same time, I wasn't completely satisfied. If there was a circumstance where I would have the choice to kill him, it would've been if Ducard never learnt his lesson...or if I had no choice. Mentally, Terry was looking for a reason to kill him, but he didn't want to make Batman look bad. EE explained that, unlike Batman, I could kill someone and not feel bad to it. I would choose not to kill because it would prove that Terry was able to really put his past behind him. Granted, he never killed, but he could if needed. After I died and heard that Ducard not only was under a close leash, but was able to escape it, I was frustrated to no end. It was like all that effort...was for nothing. It hurted me a bit cause he was my sole victory, as well.
Have there been any cool times in AGames where you were really afraid?
A few times, yes. The first time as Terry when I fought the Joker (who played Eor). Thing was, I heard vicious stories about Eor. About how he's the best at adventure games and how well he plays both good guys and bad..and how he's quick to turn sides on people. It was really...frieghtening...to play with someone of that calibar compared to a n00b like myself. I felt like if I really tried hard to engage him in fighting, that I might die. I...didn't know how to handle the situation right, especially with the gear and skills I had. So I stopped Joker from doing something retarted, and he had a bit of a scuffle. For the first minute, I had the upper hand, but it was soon taken away by my self confidence once he began to deflecting attacks against me. In the end, I backed off to a tree like a coward and he ran off to do his business. That was my first player battle, but it was also my most embarrassing moment in general. Another thing that happen was that big party Bruce hosted. At the time, I was about to help out, but Catwoman sucker punched me and placed me in one of the closets. I came to, and saw thedamage was already done. There seemed to be nothing much to do but just quietly walk off to my car and drive off. That was when I got a call...from the Joker. Mind you, Catwoman was the only one who had my number..
He harrassed me a bit, and I was getting a bit scared cause he explained that Catwoman gave him my number...as well as told who I was, really. It was freightening for me, cause I didn't know if he knew my address...or what else he may have known. So that night, I armed myself with a shot gun and had large cup of coffee on my side.
There was one day he DID visit my house, and during the time I was laying down. I quietly got up, looked through the window carefully and saw Joker and his goons there. Fortunatly, I was speaking with batman at the time and told him that they were there. I was ordered to exit out from the backway, with my gears and whatnot. I had a scuffle with some thugs on the train, but I took care of them cause I wasn't in the mood. LOL
You played a gay character in Infection 2.1 That is all I know about the character -- what else was there to him? How would you have played the character if you lived longer?
I can't remember too much from the profile. I do remember that he was a young man who was doing Business administration, and that he liked to party. I was also pretty gay. Not to mention that I love Martinezes (think I spelled it right).From what I've seen, he seemed to be a normal guy and not those stereotypical gay guys. Most likely, if I was to live longer, I would play him as a regular guy, but may do a bit of hitting on the guys (casual, not serious). I would be more of a supporting character, that's for sure.
In mafia, as scum, you're known to be quite clever. Do you use the image you have (less so, now) as a bit poor to your advantage, in scheming and other such machinations? Or do you just passively let it give you an advantage?
Yes and no. I don't try to use it, really...but at the same time, I use it when other people see me as that. One thing I do is look who's in the game, and see who I can get to be on my side in a town prespective. I don't try and use my stupidity or gullability as my advantage from the start. I merely use however they see me as and mold it as a way to slip on by. Somestimes to most, I play of the 'dumb' card and make myself seem pretty naive, whether it's a townie or mafia taking the heat. I try not to put too much effort into it. Just enough to make it semi existant. Trust me, if you give me enough room, I can and will make you look retarted after game. I've already done this on more then one occassion and JJ is, sadly, living proof LOL
What were your favorite AGame moments? Most memorable? Which ones most shaped you as a player or changed the way you approached games? What were your best and worst plays?
Favorite moments was specifically about several or nearly all of the moments with Catwoman (Tom). He makes the meetings very enjoyable, and I've gotten good practice in combat against him. Truth be told, Terry actually had a really big crush over Catwoman, and thanks to her, he really shaped him up to becoming a better man. I really liked the times they were together, cause it showed there was a type of romance in the game....something I don't think happened often in the game. The most memorable was when Robin got REALLY busy that one day....
After speaking with a journalist at the newspaper company, a bullet shot through Terry's safehouse window and becon for him to fight. Terry got up, chase down the guy...who was actually the Plague Doctor, and they were going at it. It was challenging and we both gave each other some good attacks. I chased him down towards a tall building that was undergoing some construction. That was when I was knocked off my feet and was dropped down along with him. I saved us both with a bat grapple, but I was kicked off to the side. He got away with a smoke green. THEEEN...a few minutes afterwards, he came across a guy in a pure white mask and a business suit. I followed him down..only for the guy to notice and spot me. Instead of fighting me, he was handing me...a envelope. I was a bit skeptical of him easily handing it over to me willing me...and sure enough, I was right. We fought a few times, gave him a good amount of bruises....but alas, he was able to get away. He left the envelope there...and it turned out it was information in terms of what I needed. And if you thought my day was over, oh boy! Later on that night, a big out break came around and I had to go in and anticipate my way through the damn horde. I found some clues, got myself interviewed once I left out....and then I had to go back inside to turn release the cover thingie of the football statium. And if things wasn't bad enough, Joker came out of no where and tried to attack me...
I would've been more prepared for him if it wasn't 6 AM on my side and the water flowing out of the sink (cause I left it on and had to clean it up before my mom woke up and I would hear *****ing...I don't want to see that). so, too frazzled, I coward away from the situation and avoided another incident. And then...catwoman came by my house after Batman fixed the situation. It was pleasant moment as it really brought a romance to the situation. There was srsly a 'lovey dovey' moment between Terry and Catwoman. About Terry wanting to be the man and be there for her...the end result was that Catwoman fell asleep throughout the whole 'coming out with feelings' thing and he put her to bed.
Best moment was where I played The Fog and led the last ghost to a barely stable barn and used a grenade to break the supporting beam (I lost a hand moments before it happened). It really showed that I can be as crafty I can be when i'm Mafia, or in general. Worst moment for me was dieing at the hands of who I thought I could trust as a buddy, in the Batman game. Joker disguised himself as someone else, and when he aligned me to the bike, he made it explode. I could've used the pinger Batman gave me, but from what EE described it, it sounded like I could've still moved and got away. It was also an epic moment for me as I had gotten a 'hero's death' sort of thing.
thanks for your time. any last words youd like to say?
Never give up and always believe in yourself. Thank you all for choosing me for the interview! :-D
Hah, it feels great. I actually had doubts that I'd ever be interviewed, considering I didn't think no one would be the interviewer. I'm looking forward to answering these questions. ^_^
Can you explain the entire Hentai Mafia scenario from start to finish? If actually made real, what/who would've been your ideal role PM?
One day, Chaco made a thread called 'Hentai Mafia.' I was VERY skeptical of it, considering that it wasn't locked at all. I debated for awhile of whether it was a trick or not. The curiosity has gotten the better of me and I clicked on it...only to found out that it WAS a trick and that people stalked the thread to see if it was real. The worst part was that this thread counted on me getting the MVP dice! hahaha! As far as what role I'd have...I dunno. If I was a townie, I'm sure I'd have the Vanilla 'Virgin' Townie role. Would make sense, if one thinks about it. If I was Mafia, grand chance I'd get the 'Gangbang Mafia' role pm with a Roleblock ability. Hahaha
Why couldn't I find you at Katsucon? D=
I was mostly in the Artist Alley/ Dealers room area. I described to him what shirt I wore on that one day, which was a white shirt that had one of my favorite artist's characters on it (which is here http://shonuff44.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=72#/d2qauv8 ). I probably should've gave more of an effort and gave him my cell phone, but alas...I'm an idiot. I hope next time we go to Katsucon or some other place that we could actually meet up.
Can you tell how being the most popular DGames meme is?
It has his moments of laughter and annoyance. While it's fun that I'm the butt of the joke, I get annoyed how some of the others, specifically the newer members, treat the said joke. It makes it difficult to wonder if they really think I AM gay. One time, a member (not gonna say his name) sent me several gay pictures right at my way through either IM or by a message. I was Close to yelling at him, but I think I told him nicely to tone it down. When the vets do it, especially EE, it's actually more entertaining. Not cause they know I'm not gay, but the execution of it is actually more funny. He's probably one of the few I actually don't mind hearing gay jokes from....not that I encourage him to do more...hahaha
How DID this meme start enshrouding you?
There is this adventure game called 'The Fog,' and during the time I joined, it was near the end of completion. EE gave me one of the NPC roles known as Lt. Grizzwald, a army man in his 50s (if I remember right). I went into the forest and I met up with Sandy (Redcell's character). Now, here's when it gets funny. My character and his spoke to each other from the forest to the barn area on the other side. The mod (EE) told me after the walk was done that Sandy was in her bra and panties when I found her. Sooooo...since my character didn't seem to bat an eye at her, made it seem like he was reaaaaaally gay. This joke has somewhat carried on in 'The Dark Night' Batman game, where my character, Terry Gilliam, gets *********** one time after another by Catwoman (Tom)
Favorite vets to play with? Fav new players?
Hmm, I don't think I have much of a favorite. I guess it'll be Tom, cause he makes it challenging if I was Mafia. I also like Marshy, KevinM, and EE, who I'd wish would play a bit more. I do miss playing with Eor a bit more often. That guy needs to play more Mafia man. As for new players, I don't have a favorite. I'm too busy trying to find one that can co-operate with me hahaha.
Best preformances: Town, Mafia, Indie (if indie)
No doubt it was when I was Mafia in Hando's 'TLI Mafia.' It was my 2nd time as Mafia, and my team mates were Ronike (who was soon replaced by Xsyven) and Numbers (who was replaced by Omis). I was in a Mason with Junglefever (who was town) as well as having a roleblock ability. When they got replaced, I had to help take things in my own hands, had to tell Omis and Xsyven what should be done while trying to play puppeter with JF. Things were going well, even manage to keep the Tracker, Tom, at bay. I visited FF N2 with both a kill and roleblock and he saw me. I claimed as a TOWN Roleblocker when Tom put it up in the thread. It took awhile, but the info sunk into his head and he lynched another inactive townie instead. I had to manipulate Junglefever by feeding him a bit of lies (for one thing, I said my nighttime flavor was randomly dancing with others at night time). I wanted to kill Tom, but I needed to make sure if there was a doctor in game. So, when JJ was losing his townie cred, I told him to claim as Doctor so people would have faith in him, and to claim that he was visited last night so as to make me look good as well. He agreed on both, and did just that. That was also the day when I roleblocked Mentos. Unfortunatly, when I tried to scapegoat JJ by getting him lynched...I was lynched along with him. It turns out that I was a LOVER's role instead of a mason like I originally thought. Mafia lost the game, but I won that MVP slot.
I also did a good job in EE's Samuel L. Jackson 2 Mafia game. I was a Mafia Traitor with an execution ability (I believe). Didn't know who my mafia buds were, but I had an ability where I can visit someone at night and see if that person was a mafia member. I used it as more of a cop ability. cause if I did had a mafia head, I would have the choice of joining them or not. I had like...the best townie-like attitude ever and hardly anyone suspected me. On Day 5 (I think) I used my execution ability on Pythag, and it turns out he had a princess ability. That game, Mafia won the game and it was an awesome victory. ^_^
Worst preformances: Town, Mafia, Indie (if indie)
It had to be town. I seem to have the worst experiences whenever I'm town.Hahaha. In EE's Spider Mafia, I was a vig in that game. Now, everyone who knows me knows that when I get this type of ability, I get a bit trigger happy. It was one shot ability though, so I did my best to hold it for those who was the most scummiest. I was mostly quiet and hardly informative on D1, and one or two pointed me out to this. N1, I was hit with a silencing ability and I had a good guess of who it was. The silencing ability was something that made me post only once. The flavor, from my POV, looked like two people did the job and not one. I was frustrated on what to do and what to say...and I wasn't sure if I was going to live to see the next day. It looked so Mafia...to put it on a player who hardly talked D1. So I made this huge post that I was silenced, my opinon as to what happened that night with the results of two kills, and I described that two people were pretty scummy, who was warioman (swordsman,town, and new replacee of the guy who called me out D1) and Kirby King (Mafia). I decided to shoot warioman cause it would make sense for him to have that ability...as well as, from a mafia standpoint, would make me look bad being all quiet again D2. Turns out, I was right. However, he flipped Town and I got irritated. Mafia NKed me N2 cause they wasn't sure how many other shots I had left. To make matters worse, I gave Mafia more breathing room to be inactive, cause there was only 1 person on that Night ability...not two (and the person that did the silence was the one I killed). God, some of the townies, especially Nick, was mad at me lol
Time for a fill in the blank Rocking joke. This is going to be a mad lib. Give me two adjectives a noun and an adverb and I will have Sold2 post the completed joke when the results are up.
main, traditional, table, finally
How old are you, bro?
I am 24.
What's the best you've ever done in a smash event?
I don't know...I don't think I did anything spectactular at a smash tournament. I think one of the best things I've done was entering the 2006 MLG Melee tournament. It was also my very first tournament. I guess the reason I felt it was the best time for me was cause I met M2k (who doesn't remember me much, btw) and through a few friendlies, he opened a door to new posibilities. This was the time I didn't knew about wavedashing or the glitches in the game. It was something, and the guy was hardly using his full strength at me. I wish I hung out longer on that day...so I can go and play with all the other players like Ken and whatnot.
Why do you think your scum play is better than your town play?
When I am scum, my logic is a little more structured and I seem to try harder not to mess up with what I say. I've been told by both Marshy and Macman one day that when I'm town, I'm a bit more laid back and I don't seem to take it too seriously. But when I'm Mafia, I play a bit more seriously and that do my best not to be careless with my actions. It's wording like these I laugh whenever I'm lynched as town, some people 'can't seem to figure me out.' I feel that, out of all the vets, I'm the easiest to read. All one has to do is look at my motives a little better and people would see where I really stand.
What's your favorite Cher song?
I'm pretty unfamiliar with her music, so I don't really know what is a good music choice. Sorry!
Rockin, how many Rockins does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Only one, cause I'm good at this sort of thing.
Disregarding what actually happened in Inception mafia, would you say that the set up Inception mafia was geared towards the town?
Hmm....I don't think so. I think it was nicely balanced. You had a townie who could be lynched one vote less...and then you had an executioner role, which would be good for quick bussing. I can't remember what other roles Mafa had. Then again...an ability that rises townies from the grave does seem slightly in favor of town. Eh...I can say it was geared towards Town, but nothing dramatic.
If you could handpick two people to be on your scum team in a game, who would they be and why?
Craaaaaap that's a bit hard. Damn you for making me choose favorites! Hahaha. Let's see...I think it'd be EE and Tom. EE can help make my cases against townies if they ever go against me, as well as he'd make sure I didn't do anything n00bish. Tom is good in general and he could help sniff out flavors that goes on in the thread. He's really good at finding out who's who, and EE's good at baiting people to do what he want.
What do you think of the MVP system? Do you think Dgames has possibly become more divided over dice, or is it for the better?
I like the MVP system, cause it rewards the player for his hard work, whether he led the town to victory, or became Mafia and led him and his team to victory. I don't think it has become more divided, but it's not going for the better either. Some players see it as more of a competition then something that is meant for fun. That's not how DG is suppose to be. We reward players for good effort on their part, that's that. Therefore, I don't agree it there shouldn't more of a difficult way to get it, or different varieties of it. It's meant for fun and encouragement. Nothing more.
Why didn't you bus me in Sonic if it would lead to a guaranteed win?
One main thing I disliked in doing as a Mafia player is bussing one of my own Mafia members. I lived that spotlight from time to time, and to some and most cases, it benefits for Mafia. But at the same time? You're using your own for your team members gain. When you bus someone, you're purposly trying to get rid of a player, who may be enjoying that game...for whatever reason. Cause of the flavor, cause of the players...something. I never liked bussing my own. I really don't. I try to not use it. Only time I would use it is if that member went full ****** mode. A great example would be Pheniox Wright Mafia. I was a mafia with Gheb and Riddle, and Riddle was doing something totally retarted that I didn't like. So I was more in favor of bussing him, cause it was way too risky to have him alive. When I play as Mafia, I play to win...but I also play to win with my mafia buds.
Your sleepover themes are fantastic. What made you come up with the idea? Are you gonna continue em?
I came up with it after EE's 'Nowhere Man' Mafia game. I saw that Tom made a 'series' for his 'Tomafia' games and I wanted to make a series for myself. I wanted to try something a bit more original. Something that CAN be a series and is a reccurring theme. With all the 'killing' flavors and whatnot, I wanted to make it more fun and lulz-ish. That's how 'Mafia's Milkyway Sleepover' was born. It featured all of the female nintendo (and capcom) girls I favored. The flavors I made for it was suppose to be more fun and funny, so as to give readers a good read. Night actions would be more 'prank-ish' and serious as the Days moved on. And yes, I've plan to do a bit more, but unfortunately, there will be a ending...I'll probably make 2 more sleepover themes...but the last one is going to be a dooozy! Keep your eyes peeled for it, and I'm gonna make sure it'll be a blast! Don't worry though, I'll be sure to think of another good series to start on. Everyone seems to enjoy that 'Decisive Games Mafia' I made...lol
do you still enjoy playing mafia? if so do you enjoy it as much as you used to? if not why not?
Yes I do, but I'm not sure if I'm enjoying it as much. Lately, I've seen that logic seems to be thrown out the window. I'm not sure if it was just those unfortunate times when I joined a game, but it seems that legitimate cases are no longer there, or they seem to favor the more popular player...or the one with the biggest mouth. Normally when I'm lynched, there's usually a lesson for me to improve on what to do. Nowadays, I just seemed to get more frustrated on WHY I was lynched. Again, it's probably just the games that I've lately been in, but...argh.
any advice you wanna give new players on how to improve?
Think twice before doing an action, and think logically on what you're saying and replying to. It may seem flashy from the said player, but you have to really try and connect A to B and see if it makes sense. Stay away from WIFOM at all times, whether you're approching it or creating it. If all fails, then lynch. Do not be afraid to speak your mind if you feel something is suspicious to you, whether you're town, or playing as mafia. This goes against the Vets as well.
have you had any experiences in mafia games that left a serious impact on how you viewed the game or how you played? that taught you lessons and improved your play as a result? if so what were they?
Yes. Mega Mafia taught me two things: 1) Never dive so deep into flavor. It'll not be all of what it seems. I was a Townie with a watcher ability, and I was trying to decode the game in flavor form (Smashman was doing it as well). I even tried to do it in night time. As a result, we were blind sighted on things that were truly scummy. That was our main downfall. 2) Lynch all inactives. When Hando (Mega Man, Mafia) were inactive and hardly posting the thread. Taught me to lynch anyone inactive, even if it's how they play. I've also learned from a few games never rely on habits players used (Macman being inactive as town, Mentos being more fench sitting-ish as Mafia, etc). It's just wrong....and it doesn't provide a good case.
how was your day today? howve you been?
Been fine, thank you. Just been slightly bored today, tis all.
if you could meet and chill with 5 dgamers irl who would they be and why?
Evil Eye, Frozen Flame, Tom, Marshy and Mediocre. There's several others I want to meet and hang out with, but those are my five I really want to see. They'll all pretty cool people. I'm sure EE is gonna try to either make me drink some beer haha. I dunno, they're just the type of people I'd feel really comfortable hanging out with casually.
when can we expect manly campfire mafia to hit the queue?
NEVER!! hahaha. You see, right after 'Mafia Tournament Sleepover' I thought about doing a guy version, only it'd involve campfires, guys doing manly things (Like for example, I'd have a flavor where they would try and lynch the guy while killing off surrounding ninjas that tried to ambush him), and the said people would be popular American action actors. However, Marshy decided to gay up the idea, and so did a few other people. So I burned that idea...forever. Hahaha
Could you make a joke about Rockin?
Make a Joke about me? Never!...............................fiiiiine..."Ever heard of 'being between a Rock and Hard Place?' Replace 'A Rock' with Rockin and replace 'place' with thing and you'll see that Rockin is the originator of that joke along with his boytoy, Junglefever."
Ooooooh I'm sooo gonna regret this, I know it. LOL
You seriously black?
Yeeep. You can believe how many times people mistook me for a white guy. It's not my fault I speak with a nice and calm personality. Not to mention I speak proper instead of typing all AOLish.. haha. Recently, a canadian woman I spoke to mistook me for a canadian, cause of the fact I always say 'sorry' when I make a mistake, even when I truly didn't make it. But yeah, I'm a Black African American, and proud of it
Is there a story behind the name?
The name from my father, Ronald Luckie (senior. I'm the II ). It's his nickname when he's doing DJ work. The full name is 'Rockin Rizon.' He said he got it from a child's drawing. Since I was his son, it was passed onto me, to which I was known as 'Rockin Rizon Jr.' I used it as my own personal nickname, but I've also given this nickname to, ironically, a character I drew when I was 15 in high school. I even given both my name and my character's name a reason why it's there. "It's cause I rock!" which would mean, that I help support my friends the best way I can.
Did you make your avatar Sailor Uranus by choice or did Xiivi force it?
I had to put it, cause I knew I was going to be hassled to put it on. Funny enough, I forgot who Uranus was and was more looking at WHY namewise of why I was given that name. It was a bit fun while it lasted, haha
What's up with like, the female-only avatars and the female-only themes, and the well I really thought you were a girl at first?
Hahahah! Well, the thing is is that Peach is actually like, my favorite Nintendo character. I thought about putting Meta Knight at the time, but I was like 'eh, I like Peach more.' All of the avatars I've chosen were mere cowincidence that they were women, including Sailor Uranus
Assume the following. You're at a gas station at about 11 PM. There is another car, an old Honda Civic, two pumps down from where you parked. A man is filling his tank at the pump. You just went inside to pay (there was another customer perusing the candy aisle and the attendant) and when you returned, the man outside is leaning against the car. The other man follows you outside from the store and the attendant is nowhere to be seen. The first man stands up from leaning against your driver seat and says, "I think I'll vote Rockin." The man behind you then says, "Then I guess I'll hammer and we'll have our lynch." Who do you assume they are, knowing only that they are male and what would you do in the situation?
Either thugs who want my money, or gay Mafia players who's doing some gay remarks. I'd try to kick their *** by grabbing the nearest weapon before they (god forbid) try to take mine. First thing I'd do is kick the nearest guy around me (most likely the guy right behind me), then make sure to ready myself with an attack incase the guy near the car tries to help the other. My main point is to beat the crap out of them as best I can before I go to my car and drive off....hopefully avoiding a 'night kill'
Can you list most of the newbs on Dgames, and compare them to their vet counterpart? (Which obv would be better, lol) in terms of style? Like is Swiss the Frozen Flame kinda thing.
That's going to be difficult, cause everyone has such a unique style, and I don't have a fair grasp of the new players yet, or their styles. I havn't been playing a lot of games with the new players. I'll give it a shot though. Swiss is the new Hando, excluding the fact that Swiss is always scum. The reason why he's the new Hando cause everything he does has a scummy aroma, and you're unsure wether he's really scum or not. The fact that he coasts is another issue on hand. He's smart, but eh. Cello is Marshy, minus the logic. He knows how to get people to listen to him...but he seems to fail on what is really scummy, and what isn't (Least that's from my prospective). The guy can push, and get his voice heard though. Don't know who else I can probably compare others with...haha
I know you say that you'd rather have a stronger lylo/mylo team, can you explain what the newb team in Cine could have done better? How could we achieve that?
I've said this in the thread already, but one really needs to stand back and look at the issue before hand, as well as look at the logics and possibilities of what could be true, and what could be fake. Let's look at the scenario again: J, 'town executioner' pressured Ranmaru, the claimed doctor and proven doc even with Vocal's track on him to one person and not two (cause during that same night, there was a kill). How could what J did be considered town? A Watcher who has used his ability that night during a kill...be mafia, despite J confirming that he did saw him go from A to B....how could he be mafia? How can a watcher be Mafia? THESE are the type of things one should ask themselves. Also, trying to guess the mod's mechanics was something that shouldn't be done. Another thing that should be avoided was the WIFOMing, to which both the Mafia and townies did themselves doing. Another thing was the attitude that seemed to shift. Notice how J never attacked the water at all until waaay later on in the day? Gotta notice these things...
What is your plan to catch scum as town usually?
No huge plan. Just look and see how everyone reacts. See who contradicts, and try to find leads. Ask questions when needed more info. I don't have much of a huge elaborate plan. It's pretty basic. That's why I don't consider myself good compared to the other vets haha
What is your plan to frame town as scum?
Use my 'Herp Derp' powers on them, making them look silly. Sometimes I make them second guess themselves. I try my best to be really crafty with my plans, sometimes even sacrificing myself so as to get others to spill info. Greatest example was Monster Mafia, where EE and KevinM were planning to bus me. I given permission to fight back, so did my best to look good...and when it came down to claiming, I used one of the characters who had a split personality, which made Marshy back off almost immediatly. Claiming like that not only bought me some time, but it made others claim as well. It was awesome. My main plan as Mafia is to either keep everyone safe, or be the wrench to town by making them look either silly or making a player claim a specific role.
say a bunch of stuff about Batman and other A-Games
(rockin decided to skip this in favor of ees questions cuz this was too vague and ee hit me up with more adventure game questions during the interview)
Do you love me?
Bah, no way. I like Junglefever. We can get along just nicely....pluuuuus I still get most of his stuff. Nothing personal, Chaco :-P
Do you get annoyed about people thinking you're gay?
Yeah, some times to most. Again, some people either don't make it funny, I get concern if they really think I'm gay, or when people take it too far. I don't want to be an *** and yell at them with it, cause I don't want people to think I can't take a joke. I can...but...eh.
Are you gay?
Nope. I'm pretty straight. I have a interest in women only, and that ain't gonna change anytime soon.
Oh....and to add justice to my signature...ARE you still a virgin?
Bah, a bit of a personal question, and should be glad that I have a open enough mind to answer it. But yes, I am a virgin. Thing is...I want a GF, but I'm not really trying to find one. I need to make sure I'm up to par for finding one. Even if I was ready for one, I can't seem to find a girl I really like...or who's not single. One day though. ^_^
Giving or receiving?
Neither. See, this is the type of 'gay jokes' that I mean that are a negative light in my eyes. =/
Tell us a little bit about your journey as Robin, from when you first put on the suit, to slowly emerging as a competent hero.
It was a bit of exciting to me. Terry Gilliam went through many situations, and has also had a bit of a character development. The guy went from being a thug, to a neutral person having a better life, to becoming a hero. Technically, this is my second game, but I consider it as my 'first' considering I've actually STARTED on a game instead of being at the near end in 'The Fog.' I faced a lot of conflicts in the game, and I've met some situations where I wish I was doing better. Thing was, during the whole game, I had a bit of a confidence problem. I did decently well on some NPC combat, but when it came to fighting players? I almost always lose. I kept getting frustrated when I either failed to capture them or save someone. It hurted my morals, and I'm sure it was apparant to EE. The worst of is that my 'partners' were hardly helpful. Batman (Scav) was inactive, which wasn't his fault entirely. Guy has a life, you know. Gorden was also hardly helpful sometimes to most. My only ally was Catwoman (Tom) and he was more of an anti-hero in the game. The entire game was fun and challenging, as I've got to explore and was quickly getting the grasps of the game. My only regret was not activating that Pinger when Joker pulled a fast one on me...as well as not living long enough to do that match between myself and Marshy, or Joker vs Robin.
Describe your adversarial relationship with Henri Ducard, the Faraway Tree Killer. How it started, burgeoned, etc. What was it like to finally capture him? Were there any circumstances under which you would have killed him? How did you feel when you found out he had been released after you died?
The conflict between my character and his (who was ran my Marshy) didn't start till after the guy killed an officer Terry knew. He was his room mate, and had a girlfriend along as well. A bit of a goof, but was proud that he gotten a job at the police force, Thanks to Terry's suggestion. It...hurted him, a lot. To see his best friend and room mate killed like that. He wanted revenge...but now that he was a crime fighter, he couldn't do it in a bloody mess that he wanted to. He wanted to do it right, even though killing him would make him rest in peace easier. When it came that time, it felt great to capture the *******. I felt very relieved that he was behind bars, as he wouldn't kill no one else. At the same time, I wasn't completely satisfied. If there was a circumstance where I would have the choice to kill him, it would've been if Ducard never learnt his lesson...or if I had no choice. Mentally, Terry was looking for a reason to kill him, but he didn't want to make Batman look bad. EE explained that, unlike Batman, I could kill someone and not feel bad to it. I would choose not to kill because it would prove that Terry was able to really put his past behind him. Granted, he never killed, but he could if needed. After I died and heard that Ducard not only was under a close leash, but was able to escape it, I was frustrated to no end. It was like all that effort...was for nothing. It hurted me a bit cause he was my sole victory, as well.
Have there been any cool times in AGames where you were really afraid?
A few times, yes. The first time as Terry when I fought the Joker (who played Eor). Thing was, I heard vicious stories about Eor. About how he's the best at adventure games and how well he plays both good guys and bad..and how he's quick to turn sides on people. It was really...frieghtening...to play with someone of that calibar compared to a n00b like myself. I felt like if I really tried hard to engage him in fighting, that I might die. I...didn't know how to handle the situation right, especially with the gear and skills I had. So I stopped Joker from doing something retarted, and he had a bit of a scuffle. For the first minute, I had the upper hand, but it was soon taken away by my self confidence once he began to deflecting attacks against me. In the end, I backed off to a tree like a coward and he ran off to do his business. That was my first player battle, but it was also my most embarrassing moment in general. Another thing that happen was that big party Bruce hosted. At the time, I was about to help out, but Catwoman sucker punched me and placed me in one of the closets. I came to, and saw thedamage was already done. There seemed to be nothing much to do but just quietly walk off to my car and drive off. That was when I got a call...from the Joker. Mind you, Catwoman was the only one who had my number..
He harrassed me a bit, and I was getting a bit scared cause he explained that Catwoman gave him my number...as well as told who I was, really. It was freightening for me, cause I didn't know if he knew my address...or what else he may have known. So that night, I armed myself with a shot gun and had large cup of coffee on my side.
There was one day he DID visit my house, and during the time I was laying down. I quietly got up, looked through the window carefully and saw Joker and his goons there. Fortunatly, I was speaking with batman at the time and told him that they were there. I was ordered to exit out from the backway, with my gears and whatnot. I had a scuffle with some thugs on the train, but I took care of them cause I wasn't in the mood. LOL
You played a gay character in Infection 2.1 That is all I know about the character -- what else was there to him? How would you have played the character if you lived longer?
I can't remember too much from the profile. I do remember that he was a young man who was doing Business administration, and that he liked to party. I was also pretty gay. Not to mention that I love Martinezes (think I spelled it right).From what I've seen, he seemed to be a normal guy and not those stereotypical gay guys. Most likely, if I was to live longer, I would play him as a regular guy, but may do a bit of hitting on the guys (casual, not serious). I would be more of a supporting character, that's for sure.
In mafia, as scum, you're known to be quite clever. Do you use the image you have (less so, now) as a bit poor to your advantage, in scheming and other such machinations? Or do you just passively let it give you an advantage?
Yes and no. I don't try to use it, really...but at the same time, I use it when other people see me as that. One thing I do is look who's in the game, and see who I can get to be on my side in a town prespective. I don't try and use my stupidity or gullability as my advantage from the start. I merely use however they see me as and mold it as a way to slip on by. Somestimes to most, I play of the 'dumb' card and make myself seem pretty naive, whether it's a townie or mafia taking the heat. I try not to put too much effort into it. Just enough to make it semi existant. Trust me, if you give me enough room, I can and will make you look retarted after game. I've already done this on more then one occassion and JJ is, sadly, living proof LOL
What were your favorite AGame moments? Most memorable? Which ones most shaped you as a player or changed the way you approached games? What were your best and worst plays?
Favorite moments was specifically about several or nearly all of the moments with Catwoman (Tom). He makes the meetings very enjoyable, and I've gotten good practice in combat against him. Truth be told, Terry actually had a really big crush over Catwoman, and thanks to her, he really shaped him up to becoming a better man. I really liked the times they were together, cause it showed there was a type of romance in the game....something I don't think happened often in the game. The most memorable was when Robin got REALLY busy that one day....
After speaking with a journalist at the newspaper company, a bullet shot through Terry's safehouse window and becon for him to fight. Terry got up, chase down the guy...who was actually the Plague Doctor, and they were going at it. It was challenging and we both gave each other some good attacks. I chased him down towards a tall building that was undergoing some construction. That was when I was knocked off my feet and was dropped down along with him. I saved us both with a bat grapple, but I was kicked off to the side. He got away with a smoke green. THEEEN...a few minutes afterwards, he came across a guy in a pure white mask and a business suit. I followed him down..only for the guy to notice and spot me. Instead of fighting me, he was handing me...a envelope. I was a bit skeptical of him easily handing it over to me willing me...and sure enough, I was right. We fought a few times, gave him a good amount of bruises....but alas, he was able to get away. He left the envelope there...and it turned out it was information in terms of what I needed. And if you thought my day was over, oh boy! Later on that night, a big out break came around and I had to go in and anticipate my way through the damn horde. I found some clues, got myself interviewed once I left out....and then I had to go back inside to turn release the cover thingie of the football statium. And if things wasn't bad enough, Joker came out of no where and tried to attack me...
I would've been more prepared for him if it wasn't 6 AM on my side and the water flowing out of the sink (cause I left it on and had to clean it up before my mom woke up and I would hear *****ing...I don't want to see that). so, too frazzled, I coward away from the situation and avoided another incident. And then...catwoman came by my house after Batman fixed the situation. It was pleasant moment as it really brought a romance to the situation. There was srsly a 'lovey dovey' moment between Terry and Catwoman. About Terry wanting to be the man and be there for her...the end result was that Catwoman fell asleep throughout the whole 'coming out with feelings' thing and he put her to bed.
Best moment was where I played The Fog and led the last ghost to a barely stable barn and used a grenade to break the supporting beam (I lost a hand moments before it happened). It really showed that I can be as crafty I can be when i'm Mafia, or in general. Worst moment for me was dieing at the hands of who I thought I could trust as a buddy, in the Batman game. Joker disguised himself as someone else, and when he aligned me to the bike, he made it explode. I could've used the pinger Batman gave me, but from what EE described it, it sounded like I could've still moved and got away. It was also an epic moment for me as I had gotten a 'hero's death' sort of thing.
thanks for your time. any last words youd like to say?
Never give up and always believe in yourself. Thank you all for choosing me for the interview! :-D
haha, had a bit of fun

T'was a good read, also reminds me that I need to catch up on the stuff I missed while I was MIA from DGames XD Also, @Megamafia comment: So, so very true, but you gotta give credit to me and EE(mostly EE) for deflecting everything away from Hando any time he started to get heat XD

Awesome interview, Rockin feels like a whole new person to me. Not that I didn't know you weren't gay, but just your perspective on it, mafia, and life on general.
