[Music] sir matrix here and welcome to episode 9
0:10
if the $0.07 Q&A series and doing me today is none other than Kankuro and sharp ghosts you have a
0:18
pretty good voice for that wow that actually feel like I'm on show right now
0:23
so start off with our questions mr. metha Slim Shady and his first question here is where you first hear about this
0:30
site well long day ago on a day most dreary I was on Google looking for
0:39
Borderlands 1 mods and I came across the website while googling I think I just
0:44
repeated myself but I found a thread on modding I was talking about the willow
0:51
tree program way back in the day in 2009 and there was this really annoying ad on
0:57
the top of the screen that acid had up pretty much begging people to register for the website that was really annoying
1:04
I'm glad he doesn't do that anymore so I registered for the website and yeah
1:09
started contributing by doing Borderlands 2 art print Borderlands 1 weapon mods and whatnot I was almost 10
1:18
years ago [ __ ] old I know I know
1:30
everybody likes kill point drops and
1:38
[ __ ] that was the [ __ ] days right there oh my gosh I remember that yeah Easter joke [ __ ] skill points and
1:44
like skill points st is yeah it's like [ __ ] people born around you like
1:50
goddamn piranhas in a [ __ ] ocean yeah that's what they are honestly yeah
1:55
that's what they are he also has what made you so motivated
2:02
well gosh I'm trying to trying to remember what made me motivated back in the day huh I was a little baby
2:09
it's it was nice to like put all that all that energy I had when I was younger into it into something you know useful
2:15
so I did it initially with the borderlands one mods and then when Berlin to take him out contributed to
2:22
that a little bit as much as I did with Berlin obviously because other people were pretty big like deaf toned and uh
2:29
concur oh and kratos 187 um he's amazing so we are fully here oh my gosh he fully
2:41
in fat Pat but yeah I started asserted writing because I was really into writing at the time I still am and I
2:48
found the website would be a good creative outlet for that and that's what initially got me into the team doing all
2:53
that writing and uh yeah I was part of yeah part of the wave two of writers
2:59
that uh acid and sagen octavarium brought on yeah yeah yeah thank you slim
3:07
he also asked here what's what are the best memories you had on this site definitely all the Skype chats we used
3:14
to have a lot of the old time staff chats on a and when we Steve's aim back
3:20
in a 2012 early 2012 and then we moved the slack and you like hesitantly moved
3:29
to fricken discord oh yeah back when BEC when Moses was admin and Hovey was admin those are some
3:36
of the best memories I had on the site because of all the all the [ __ ] we used to do all [ __ ] we used to play on each
3:43
other the interviews especially the interviews are hilarious I was terrible at them but made it work somehow I
3:50
remember one of those with scrubs knows me yeah when he you made his return from
3:56
his hiatus pants keep that on next up I cast a skin
4:10
here where's the lucha dawn oh thanks for reminding me Cass pom I saw that
4:16
question I've heard fight to it in the throat about it it's in my closet and my parents house somewhere I'm just chillin
4:24
so my plans for it is I'm gonna go take it to a framing shop there's a framing
4:30
shop in my town where I'm at right now I want to take it there have someone look at the lucha dong ask what it is then
4:37
I'm gonna have him frame it and I'm gonna hang it on I gotta actually got a big spot of water here that needs to loot your dog on it so I'm just gonna
4:43
put it right there so that way I always have memory of the person who sent it to me and that was taboo yeah one of those two people that
5:06
I was cool with it college for us how is
5:17
or how was all right to put it in a brief nutshell of my first two years of
5:23
college I went to Community College and that was pretty pretty lame cuz I was still living with my parents but my last
5:29
two years I went to an actual University and those were some of my best and worst
5:37
experiences first first year of college or real university I was living with
5:43
three black roommates and they taught me the ways of the ghetto I have I have
5:49
ghetto ghost ghost my first college
5:55
party was an all-black college party I was the only white guy there was like 30 black guys and girls there
6:02
token white guy they know how they know how to party holy crap okay I can't even really
6:11
remember what happened at it but I mean they're a wild and then met a lot of people had a lot of fun of my classes
6:17
ended up graduating what like like it
6:23
like a year ago with a degree in psychology and now ya know making
6:29
statics doing sales selling Sally and that's where the money is sell sells and
6:35
business so if anyone out there is looking for a degree definitely go it's something that you can do with sales or
6:41
business something like that already next question from Atlas is which FF
6:47
game is your favorite it's a big tie between Final Fantasy 10 which Final Fantasy 13 and the reason being is at 10
6:57
that was my very first one so there's a lot of loss no slaughter going on right there and the story is frickin amazing
7:03
but the game plays I don't know it's kind of boring now to me 13 has you know
7:10
it's a black sheep of the series but I like the gameplay and I like the story I like the characters I love lightning a
7:15
lot not not romantic romantically but I think she's a good character so I'm
7:21
gonna say for some idiot [ __ ] interprets that another way but yeah
7:26
next up from that was we have any idea what the obnoxious guy who lived across we're down the hall from you at college
7:34
is up to these days he was your buddy iirc hmm you know I wonder who he's
7:40
talking about if he's tired by the second batch roommates you know I I hope they're all
7:46
digging ditches somewhere I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure one of them one of them was pursuing some sort of economics
7:53
degree or something so he's probably out there doing his thing designing tables with graphs and [ __ ]
8:00
the other two over to I don't care you know I don't know where they went but
8:05
the bad guys I was living with they're doing well doing well all right another one from Atlas is
8:11
whose fault do you think it was that my initial staff interview for winter was so chaotic winter gosh
8:24
you know I would have an answer for that but I really don't remember that's like so deep in my memory they're too deep
8:34
atlas too old that's like what - two
8:39
years ago on the team initially no it was before me yeah that's that's too far
9:06
well I'm you know three points I'm pissing off every member because I did I
9:15
I mean if you compare what I was doing to - next obviously next is doing close
9:21
[ __ ] compared to what I was doing but I would say some of the cool things I did for the site that you know so exists
9:28
today it's the whole project manager thing I reworked all the trophy points
9:33
I'm sure someone has messed with them by now reaching completely and yeah but but
9:39
I'm yeah I have a ton of a ton of fun making trophies prefixes you know it's a prefix admin making that group making
9:48
that new user group and then failing to give people the role and have them do
9:55
their job it wouldn't be until I actually I don't think it wouldn't have been a talking Kuro join the team that we were able to
10:02
get that group you know actually producing stuff I think we actually this
10:07
could this continued project sure LR it there's continued again yeah actually
10:13
deleted their role yeah I mean I I liked my time as an admin it was really fun a lot of a lot of
10:21
drama that that's the only thing I hate it was a little stupid drama and being blamed for stuff outside of my control
10:26
but it was fun interviewing people the friending a lot of the team there's some
10:33
benefit of being read though you always get the blame yeah well when I was initially it
10:38
would've been like admin initially I was so fun I was family fun so I knew every single person on the team like
10:45
personally and then the longer you stay admin the less of that connection that you have because you got people even
10:50
people that you don't know I know a good majority then I guess you've been making
10:58
a pretty sure effort to like you know connect with each of them yeah well I have no life I'm always on spoke things
11:04
will come to me a lot connects with one person in particular what's a friend
11:33
everybody knows about my whole like agoraphobia [ __ ] oh yeah takes jokes
11:40
well it's always like come kick my well
11:57
one of my long-term goals is to go back to school finish up my my studying get a
12:03
masters degree psychology I want to be a psychologist of some sort then the other
12:12
one would be to make a lot of money get a beauty beautiful [ __ ] house get a
12:19
hot wife and have a kid and then I don't know when I get old maybe maybe get some
12:27
sort of procedure where I can live a little bit longer maybe be a cyborg [ __ ] yeah I don't know why I would do
12:33
when I get old but I know what I want to do in 20 or 30 years but I don't want to get old being old sucks he's coming for
12:40
your life as it yeah that was just like azzam - psychology uh wait as I would
12:49
acid actually said me and he's got a house he's got a while I assume she's
12:54
hot he's got a hot wife and is I'm sure he makes decent money with his job when
13:01
I'm saving the sins on top of me no chiropractor making money okay yeah oh what's that yeah he makes a lot of it
13:10
Rick Red's question is how often you hydrate all the damn time my job is like
13:20
99% talking so I literally drinking water every second of the frickin day to
13:26
keep my throat wet reading a bit
13:35
literally every second are you drinking water right now yeah I got this right
13:41
here but you're not drinking water
13:46
I didn't swallow and talk at the same the skill you acquired oh god I don't
14:01
think this is appropriate to the interview house how you acquired the
14:06
skill they might have to have matrix real able the so is that what that that all black party was about I learned
14:16
things about myself next question yeah we're getting there
14:22
I'm just trying to see if it's it's organelle what I whatever organ out here
14:27
asking how good at you at video gaming on PC mobile console and which is your
14:33
favorite games our favorite with games blah blah you know I think that is probably the most normal question that
14:39
you've asked so far so I don't console game anymore when I do its to play
14:46
single-player games because the console gaming market right now it's just just full of crap full of triple-a garbage
14:53
we're full of microtransactions and all that PC gaming I don't really play too
14:59
much on there I mean I play a lot of league and I'm incredibly good at that you know I'm in the top 1% of players on
15:07
that game right now and that's about all I play on the PCs League of Legends sometimes minecraft and I'll play a lot
15:14
of Borderlands 2 every now and then and whatever new games come out my favorite
15:19
game that's tough I probably have to say
15:26
League at the moment for PC just because I play it all the time
15:36
savvy as six questions for you like some of these ones I'm gonna put
15:43
your band give a [ __ ] so number one is what is your favorite salad Caesar salad
15:50
I was late for it no I asked that I'd
15:57
surprise you actually the absolute I like it it's blue no way that's a blast
16:25
from the frickin past so let me explain what this was so this when scrubs II was
16:32
on the team I went into the ACP and I changed his name on there to that
16:38
something something black sag that's all I put I remember at the end of that my black sag and as soon as I did that I
16:46
crashed the entire website like the entire website crashed because his name
16:51
was too long for the for the name field so the site is crashed and next time
16:57
good fixed that fiasco crazy if you ask
17:15
next question is how are sorry have you ever played boy lands without
17:21
speedrunning you know I figured Toby
17:26
would be the one asking that yeah now is the time that me you and him played and
17:32
he didn't get this single [ __ ] balls and threw everything I do play the game
17:38
once in a blue moon without sweeter internet yeah I do I do do that I definitely don't speed
17:43
her and I remember that we get the sake shine is like I haven't seen a single [ __ ] boss yet the cutscene his next question is how do
17:54
you feel about Mexican wrestling why can't I read a decent like watching
18:11
every now and then roaster toast toast yeah and the last question from him is
18:21
how do you feel about conquerors fetishes so we had a long night one day before
18:29
before I left the site and we had a long talk about him becoming admin and he was
18:35
he was he was crying to me he was crying he he was happy that I was gonna give
18:41
him a recommendation that he was in good admin after I left and everything and he confided me he told me a big secret
18:47
they told no one else and the fetishes are just the most beautiful things
18:53
you ever hear come out of Toby's money so maybe one day he'll share it with the rest of the staff team but I can't
19:00
really currently talk about it it's just tell him I keep it a secret
19:06
damn okay for 20 years who started the
19:15
whole shark toast thing you know that's a good question I
19:21
I think as Alex Alex way back in the day started that whole thing and people you
19:27
started call me sharp toast is that a counselor I think there's a count too called sharp toast with with a picture
19:33
of lightning on it I don't know who owns that [ __ ] but it's still around - so yeah blame Alex Alex Spiro asking why
19:44
don't you talk to me anymore I can answer that because you owe him a bag
19:49
[Laughter] he's almost four years overdue with that bag
19:54
so Jesus Christ yeah I mean you know if
20:01
I still have his number I'll text them you know go push someone's wall Charlie guys I feel like this question
20:09
is asked a lot but who was your REO what [ __ ] what was your motive to stab okay
20:18
so my reaction every single time was that of excitement initially would you
20:26
do that high pitch school but I've heard you do like to thought no I didn't do any high-pitched squealing it's just I
20:32
was pretty happy you know every single time I got promoted to the next role because I was like actually trying to
20:38
get the next role in the ladder so I mean obviously I was happy about it but every single damn time I was gonna get
20:45
promoted O'Donnell I don't know if he's still with us on the site but you would come and ruin the surprise
20:52
every single time he'd be like you're gonna get writer you're gonna get diet you're gonna get super you're gonna get
20:57
huh he even spoiled admin somehow and he wasn't even happen so I don't know how
21:03
he I don't know how he learned about that first before I did yeah O'Donnell
21:09
is a big party pooper this is the most advanced questions I've seen
21:20
this is his question with all the advances in technology as far as graphics and processing power available
21:25
to consoles the historic gap between console and PC gaming appears to be growing blurry now with the current gen
21:33
consoles operating more as complete media entertainment systems where do you see the future of console gaming in
21:39
relation to the older perception of them being less capable and worthy of a true
21:44
gamer especially considering systems like the new Scorpio and the possibly or possibility of the PS 5 by middle 2018
21:53
ok so believe it or not I actually have a
21:59
good answer to this so the company that I work for is actually doing a lot of work with Microsoft right now in terms
22:06
of the entertainment portion of the console so I think the future of
22:13
consoles is that they're gonna try and make consoles a modular system so the
22:19
way that it will probably work is that in the future consoles will be more like
22:24
computers in the respect that you can swap out parts purchase upgrades take your Xbox to a store and have some sort
22:32
of guy behind the desk take your Xbox take it somewhere take some parts out replace it with something else
22:37
boom you've got a bigger hard drive boom you've got more RAM better processor whatever whatever and then you can take that back home you get
22:44
to play your games in higher definition whatever whatever in terms of the entertainment aspect it will probably
22:53
continue to grow I mean Microsoft especially is trying to emphasize more that the Xbox can act like a TV
23:00
converter box you know you send a signal through it you can watch cable on it you
23:05
can watch Netflix Hulu all this random [ __ ] so and I think the second part of
23:11
the question was what consoles become less and less focused on the actual
23:16
gamer definitely because right now every company and their mother is trying to appeal to a general audience a casual
23:23
audience so I think the GAC think people who like take gaming a lot more seriously are probably gonna have to go
23:28
to the computer they get that sort of experience with the games that are on the computer only because you're finding less yeah your
23:36
and less and less of them on consoles that's why I click game console game pletely
23:41
there you have it everybody the truth is just been bestowed upon us didn't reveal
23:49
the next question is from ump-45 can we be best buddies the number for life
23:56
question mark hmm you know that's a good
24:02
question you have to find out next in the next episode yep should we continue
