Projectile Diarrhea of the Mouth.

I wasn't sure if this interview would actually ever happen. XD I guess I just have this mental image of people reading the PM I send them, and just clicking delete or forwarding it to their friends to lol away at me. I really thought Chelsk wouldn't give me the time of day for this interview.

But he did, obviously! It went really well! Chelsk is such a cool guy! Even his answers seemed very genuine, and his shout outs were so adorable... haha. Check it out! I'm really glad I had the chance to sit and do this interview.

Oh, and if that's not good enough to hook you, there's a LivesLikeBeth/Chelskiman showdown! Check it.



(Interview with Chelskiman - 10/16/2009)
acevus: So you ready for some interviewing awesomeness? VulcanRaven was just here a while ago, but he left unexpectedly... I guess we'll just have to do this anyway. There may or may not be a visitor popping in later though... :D
Chelskiman: Ahh, ok.


acevus: So let's start things off simple - Where exactly do you lurk in Neoseeker? Where could we find you?
Chelskiman: Well, I mod PES 2009 and PES 2010 so those are the two obvious places to find me. I also post in Oceania - actually I'm top poster there so I post there a lot. Other than that you will see me in Loungin' and occasionally Survival Horror Social.


acevus: Have you been involved with any other major Neoseeker events? Are you working on any major websites or projects on the interwubs?
Chelskiman: I was a running mate for Praetorian_Lord in the last Neo elections. But other than that and Big Brother I haven't been apart of anything else. Nope, none at all. The only real project is modding on Neo.


acevus: Are you looking forward to doing any other Neoseeker competitions? Or is Neoseeker BB going to be the extent of your competition entry...ing?
Chelskiman: I'm not really sure. Big Brother just seemed so interesting to me so as soon as I saw the thread I signed up for it. I guess it will be the same if I see another competition that takes my interest. I'll just play it by ear and see what eventuates.


acevus: I guess that leads us into the BB questions... So to my understanding, you weren't apart of the original crew? Which crew were you on, again? Big Brother House or Big Brother Duplex? How exactly did you enter the game? And how was it trying to form an alliance or join an already exisiting alliance?
Chelskiman: Nope, I wasn't an original. I was disappointed that I didn't get in because I thought my application letter was pretty good. But alas, I was not chosen. Then a week or so later bobbonew PMed me all happy because he had convinced Klope to let me be a replacement for Megacoolstar. So Klope then PMed me asking me if I wanted to join and of course I said yes. He told me I'd be in the secret house and that I was not to tell anyone. The forming of my original alliance with Origin, Vector and GTA_Fanatic was really quite simple as they invited me in pretty much right away. Origin being another Aussie helped a lot too as we were obviously in the same time zone.


acevus: lol you're the second contestant I've interviewed who was Aussie that mentioned having an Aussie alliance member helped... So I didn't know you'd already known boobs. Do you know any other fellow BBers not in your season? oh, and boobs = bobbonew. (I'm so pushing that nickname.)
Chelskiman: Yeah, bobbo and I are pretty good mates. I met him through U_Turn and we have been friends ever since. And nope, I don't personally know any other Big Brothers.


acevus: So how was the BB experience for you? You seemed to have played a very strong hand consistantly this season. Were you confident that you'd break into the top 2?
Chelskiman: It was a great experience, and one I'd gladly do again if given the chance. To begin with I just set little goals for myself. When I first joined the cast I just wanted to survive the first week tbh. After I did that I then set my sights on making the merge which, in the end, I did with ease. After the merge I then wanted to make it into the top four. It was very tough there for a while though because my alliance (Origin, Vector and Nightmare) were all evicted and I was the only one left so once they all left I wasn't very confident at all of making the top two. The inclusion of Rikku Chick was a breath of fresh air for me as she injected some life into me and that spurred me on to reach as far as I did.


acevus: How did you go about choosing RikkuChick of all your neofriends?
Chelskiman: To be honest, she was my last choice. xD I asked U_Turn first but he said he wouldn't be a very good partner, which was true, he wouldn't have done a thing to help me lol. I then asked Paper Fox but she said she was too busy. I did want to ask Marooned Chic because she applied for Big Brother too but didn't get in. She wasn't online though and Rikku was the only one left so I asked her and she said yes.


acevus: XD thats awesome. did playing together in BB bring you two closer together? were you happy to see how far she'd gotten?
Chelskiman: We've always been pretty good friends. I think I've known her for around two years now. Again, she's an Aussie, so that helped me out as I could contact her easier. I was very happy to see how far she got because it meant that I could get that far too. She burst onto the scene winning HOH in her first week. Looking back, she was the best partner I could have possibly chosen out of anyone I knew. It's just a shame that we both fell so agonsingly close to victory.


acevus: She played a pretty strong game as well... If the two of you were in teh competition from the beginning, I feel the top 4 would have been entirely different. Oh, so how did you feel about LivesLikeBeth winning? Do you feel she deserved it?
Chelskiman: Of course she deserved it. Saying that, though, if I had won it then I would have deserved it and if Rikku had won then she would have deserved it. Beth was an interesting character though. She was quiet, but got the job done. I recognised her as threat really early on, and I wish I could have evicted her earlier. Well, I did actually evict her, but BB decided to pull a twist on us when allowed her to not be evicted. >>


acevus: If given the chance, would you like to face-off against her in a duel for the number one spot?
Chelskiman: Of course I would! I would also feel very confident in winning given my dominance in all of the BB challenges I participated in throughout the season. Anyway, I'm number one in my own eyes.
acevus: :D how about now? would you like to face off in a multiple choice, random question test?
Chelskiman: Sure, why not? Multiple choice questions are always fun.


LivesLikeBeth has been added to the conversation.


acevus: Welcome LivesLikeBeth! So, I've been here interviewing Chelskiman, and I usually do mid-interview games at some point during interviews. They're mindless, pointless, and usually slightly fun. I didn't have anything planned for Chelsk, until the moment you, Beth, signed on. : D The name of the game is... well, it doesn't have a name. Its merely a multiple choice question quiz, and there are 5 questions. The person to get the best score, wins. The way the game will work is that I'll post a question and answer, you guys submit your answers, and I'll tell you the results at the end of the game. Beth, are you here?

LivesLikeBeth: yeah
Chelskiman: G'day Beth!
acevus: Everyone understand the rules/ready? : D
LivesLikeBeth: More like good night. And yeah, I'm ready.

acevus: I like men... but yeah... RESULTS!
LivesLikeBeth: Hey I do too


acevus: Question One's answer: C. cereal... hahah I'm vegetarian, so sorry... it wasn't barbecue...
Chelskiman: We have barbecues in the rain here in Australia though.


acevus: XD - Question Two's answer was B. coconut... I absolutely hate that stuff. (Ew, coconut.) Question Three's answer was: B. Fish. He *bleep*ing loves fish, for some reason... even some of his passwords involved fish....and chips --not his current Neo password, though. I tried. =\
Chelskiman: My last name is Fish
LivesLikeBeth: XD
Chelskiman: He loves me!


acevus: Question Four's answer was B - boobs... yaaay you both got that correct. Question Five's answer was Tallulah, and you both got that correct, as well. Meaning, you both tied!
Chelskiman: Damn, I still can't beat her.
LivesLikeBeth: :P


acevus: Thanks LivesLikeBeth for being a sport! I'll interview you after I finish with Chelsk


LivesLikeBeth has left the conversation.


acevus: XD I threw two questions in that you HAD to get right.
Chelskiman: I would have won if she didn't copy my answers.


acevus: No kidding.... so back to the interview: Megacoolstar. Did I ask about him yet? How'd you feel about his "special treatment". ALSO, did you notice anything between him and PinkyPink?
Chelskiman: Mega was definitely an interesting character to say the least. Although, you would think for somebody that kept getting evicted he would have learned from his mistakes and done something to prevent himself from getting booted again. I never really saw him as a threat though, even when I was without an alliance. As for him and Pinky, well I didn't notice anything at all, and the only reason I did end up knowing is because I read all the diaries.


acevus: What exactly did his diaries mention? I don't remember seeing anything. I forgot who tipped me off about it, but I heard there was something between the two. Of course, I asked during my interview with Pinky, but she only bashed him and such XD It was interesting. And yeah, its ridiculous that the ultimately, after being kicked out three times, just quit. Did he expect for there to be some twist that after quitting four times, he'd automatically win?
Chelskiman: Actually, I can't remember which diary I read it in, but I read that Pinky was to seduce Mega as a plan for the "Inner Circle". I'm not sure what he expected lol. Although, to be fair, without him I wouldn't have made top two because when he quit it meant Rikku was invited to stay.


acevus: That's very true... so I guess things all worked out for the best. So how did you feel about PinkyPink? I mean, you seemed upset at her elimination... or was that just you being surprised? Did you expect her to be in the Top3 instead of Beth?
Chelskiman: I wasn't upset at all. Well, I was upset for her because I knew how much she wanted to win, but I also knew she was the bigger threat out of her and Beth. Rikku was actually my puppet, I told her exactly what to do when she won that final HOH and it was me that told her to eliminate Pinky, so I always knew it was going to be Beth, Rikku and myself in the top three. I knew that either Beth and Pinky would win, but I thought I'd have a better shot at winning if Beth was there instead.


acevus: Wouldn't choosing Pinky have been a better idea, as she may have angered more people in the Jury? I mean, atleast that way it would've been more votes for you or Rikku. Then again, I don't remember who was even in the Jury. So anyway, all-in-all, it sounds like you had a great time during BB. If given the chance would you come and play again?
Chelskiman: The thing is, most of the jury were apart of the Inner Circle anyway, so it wouldn't have made much difference either way. The only person on my side that I knew would vote for me was Vector, so I had to rely on the extra few votes to get me through, but that didn't happen. I was also hoping that Silent Storm would vote for me as I tried to give him a lifeline late on in the game, but he opted to vote for Beth instead. Oh well, I'm proud of myself for coming second, as I didn't think I'd ever make it that far. I had a fantastic time. I met a few new people and became friends with Nightmare, so it all turned out well. If given the chance I'd play again for sure. I just love all the interaction, the challenges and all the little plans that alliances come up with. That's my idea of a fun game!


acevus: Sum up the experience with 5-7 words.
Chelskiman: A game of skill, determination and luck.
acevus: Very well done! So two things left to ask: Would you like to give out any shoutouts or make any plugs or things or that nature?
Chelskiman: Gotta give shout outs to my alliance; Vector, Nightmare and Origin, you guys were great and I couldn't have survived the merge without you.

To Pinky, I know we never really got on, and I don't think you liked me very much because I was mean to you a couple of times, but I did respect you a lot, and that's why you were my biggest threat.

To Rikku, you were my breath of fresh air, my new lease of Big Brother Life. I was all but doomed until you came along, so for I thank you for all the help you gave me that enabled me to come second.

And finally to Beth, you played the game better than anyone else, and you deserved the win. You just went about your business without causing any trouble and you always slipped under the radar. Your tactics were spot on, and I can't help but admire that.

acevus: awwhh... how sweet and heartfelt and such. : D
Chelskiman: (insert blush smiley here)


acevus: And finally, would you like to help me interview any of the other Season 3 castmembers?I've got tons of people to tackle, and I feel you'd be a great asset to my team!
Chelskiman: Well, if we can find the right time I may pop in as a guest every so often.
acevus: That would be great! It shouldn't be too difficult, as it seems we both are online quite frequently. It would be great to also have the perspective of someone who was there in the season... and I'm sure you have questions you'd like answered. : D


Chelskiman: For sure! Once we finally got our times all sorted it didn't take long. It's just a shame Vulcan couldn't make it though.
acevus: He's been sick lately, so we'll give him a free pass. But thanks a bunch for the interview! Chelskiman: Thanks for contacting me for the interview, I had fun answering the questions.
acevus: I'm glad you had fun! This was my first interview in a while and I was hoping it wouldn't turn sour.


So there you have it, kids. Next up will be LivesLikeBeth and Eridor... I think. There should be a guest helping me out with Eridor, but you'll have to wait and see who shows up. Oh, and I've been meaning to post an attempt at a klope interview from a while ago. It turned into a deliciously humorous klope vs. Vulcan... showdown? Not sure what to call it.

I'll let you guys decide: I'll post it up soon!
