Hey, first off all thanks for taking some time out to speak to me today, I know things have been a bit hectic today of all days with the clan, could you tell everyone a little bit about who you are, what you do, what your background is?

Its not a problem, my name is Nigel I am 19. I currently live in Scotland and am currently playing TeamFortress 2 in a clan called WOTR - now officially known as Team-CoolerMaster! I started gaming back in 2000 at the age of 11 with my 33.6k modem on Counter-Strike 5.2 I got on a demo disk in a Pc Gamer magazine. I then moved onto a game introduced to me by my brother "Team Fortress Classic" where I then started to take interest in clan style matches. I played Team Fortress Classic for 3-4 years. then moved back to Counter-Strike for a more serious approach and then moved onto playing Painkiller for 2 years. After Painkiller died I decided to take a break from gaming. 2 years later TeamFortress 2 was announced and my interest in gaming was picked up again :D

Could you give us a run down of the members of the team, strengths, weaknesses, likes, dislikes..... what they're all like to play with?

Xman: I don't think I will ever meet anyone so willing and dedicated to a team and game. WOTR/TCM would not have been here without his support. He is the back bone of our success. He runs us, he keeps us right, he's now a little inactive because he is a very busy man. Its hard to believe the man can do what he does, with his busy lifestyle of his job wife and family. So I have a lot of respect for Jim.

Byte: Our Demoman and A huge team binder in game and in game team leader. With ridiculous game-sense and knowledge of all classes he is probably one of the most valuable in game players we have.

Evil: Our soldier with Accurate long range rockets and a good survivor without his medic, he delivers the pressure on the opposing team.

AppZ: brilliant scatter gun aim and confidence in game, shame the bugger is the most negative person in the universe haha.

coinz: Quiet on Communication but a very effective defensive soldier, lack of comm's now and then, but there is sometimes a language barrier for coinz because he's from Portugal. But his Ability to read the game makes up for it.

albert: Probably plays the most blamed class in the game, he delivers under pressure from rockets and grenades, and the great ability to command and put up with our shouting and calls for a medic.

Topgear: Plays the multi-role in the team, delivering a 2nd demoman, heavyweaponguy or soldier when needed.

You mentioned TCM, it was announced on Wednesday of this week that your team WOTR had been taken into the TCM organisation; is it fair to say WOTR picked up a few awards in there time? could you give us a bit of an overview of the team for those readers who don't know much about the scene or your team?

For months we could not decide whether to be picked up by an organisation or not. WOTR was originally founded by Xman your SGL TF2 head admin as a fun TFC clan. We could not decide for Xman, it was an extremely hard decision to make. The reason we became interested was due to how successfully the alpha team have been performing in the last 2 months. WOTR were starting to make an impact on the TF2 scene and were developing a known name in the lower standard e-sports communitys. I think one of the hardest things was the possibility of upsetting our other division in our team. The Beta, Gamma TF2 squads and the CSS division. Anyway from what I could tell the guys took it well and in an understandable way. For the people that don't know us. We currently play in ETF2L Division 1 and seeded first to win this season, our latest achievement was coming first at i34 and taking first place in the ETF2l 3rd Cup.

Well it sounds like it's fair to say that your team is certainly one not to be underestimated under any circumstances, which sort of makes me wonder about why you decided to join TCM. The organisation is certainly a good one, but there CSS team recently folded and there CS 1.6 team can't get past Dignitas or 4Kings in the UK scene, why them?

Its a good question. The decision to join TCM was on our own accord. One of the things we were looking for in an organisation was workable friendly people but with the professional approach. When Xman and the team spoke to Whitley (The new front man of TCM) we felt he was approachable and such a great person to work with in our game and the future of TCM. Our other possible candidates that I can not really mention but we felt TCM were the right Calibre for us and allow us that sort of freedom that other teams and organisations wouldn't allow us. It all boils down to the fact that they offer what we need and vice versa but with the fantastic friendly yet professional approach. However I am not one to criticize other divisions in my team, TCM have now picked up a new CSS team which have great potential from what I can tell, and the CS team are all fantastic players! Got to remember the 4k and Dignitas 1.6 squads are very strong teams in 1.6. I wouldn't be to disappointed with the results the CS squad delivered in the latest qualifying matches for the ESL-Pro Series!
