This week another Behind The Name with two new victims in the Bootleggers Buzz! Their names are BifreGoonV3 and SafiX. Two new and different interviews with two different guys. Want to find out more about them? Read the interviews!
The first one is BifreGoonV3!
Where is the name BifreGoon based on?
Haha, Bifre is my last name and a Goon means: a soldier/bodyguard.
What is your real name, age and where do you live?
My real name is Robbie and I'm 19 years old. I live in The Netherlands. In Rotterdam.
Do you have any hobbies?
Playing soccer, lounging, smoking some dutchies and parties.
For how long are you playing Bootleggers?
I started in 2005 as Rbrevenge and I kept playing till 2009. I had a break for 2 years and now I thought I could check it out again. Some old friends were still playing so I thought: What the hell, just play again and give it a try.
What are your opinions about the current updates?
I think Sky is doing a great job because he did more than BSF2000 did in one year. The bust competition update is my favorite update. It brings more life in the forums and I'm a big fan of an active Game/Off Topic forum.
What is your favorite football club?
Feyenoord Rotterdam of course! Winners of the Champions league two times.
Robin van Persie - Ron Vlaar - van Hooijdonk - Nuri Sahin - John Guidetti - Miyachi
Sky once said that you are the worst host on Tiny Chat. Is that true?
Sky likes Christmas music and Justin Bieber, I prefer rap and a mix of the 70/80/90''s. Also, I like Chocolate Rain. Sky is my undercover fan but he won't admit it.
After what Sky said, are you going to keep an another Tiny Chat party?
Of course. Me and my mate TeachMeMaster are mostly hosting Tiny parties. We even got a lady dancer called SemperFidelis.
So, you’re the newest BootBlast DJ, what are your expectations about that.
I'm expecting a great time with a lot of loyal and happy listeners. Also people can count on rap classics and sing-alongs from the good old days.
What’s your most favorite feature on Bootleggers?
Bust parties! I love it.
What’s your most favorite song?
50 Cent - Paper Chaser or Akon - The Rain
What is your biggest achievement on Bootleggers?
Exploiting the hitlist bug in round 4. Putting an URL on your profile, and when someone visited my profile he bought them of the hitlist. And being co-boss of La Forta Familia.
If you would find a wallet on the streets, what would you do with it?
Return it. Happened to me two times. If there is more than 500 dollar in the wallet, the money is mine and the wallet and ID cards are returned.
How often do you read the Buzz?
Every week!
What are your opinions about the Buzz?
I think it's a great feature for Bootleggers. Keep up the good work!
Up next: SafiX' interview!
What is your real name, age and where are you from?
My real life name is Kjartan, weird name and I don't even like it myself but my mother seemed to love it. I'm 19 years old and I'm from Belgium.
For how long are you playing Bootleggers?
January 2004, with breaks though.
Do you have an achievement on Bootleggers where you are proud of?
Hell yes, I've reached Don this round for the first time ever. And of course to be council of a kick-ass crew named Axteze. My BL career has been pretty worthless up to now.
Describe your thoughts about December.
I actually enjoy cold months, as long as they stay dry. Unfortunately, that never happens! I love snow though, the white fairytale snow, not the black mess that cars cruise through... December is a cozy month, with lots of festivities. I have to study most of the month though.
What is your favorite sport?
I don't really do any sports. I once tried kayak polo but that wasn't really my thing. If snooker and table soccer are considered sports then I'll pick those! They're so much fun.
What is your favorite food?
In Ghent (city of my college) there's a special meal that pretty much everyone loves. Every student knows it and you can get it 'till 7AM in the morning!
I'm mainly a meat-eater, not a big fan of fish. Plus I recently started eating vegetables (quite the achievement) after 19 years.
Oh oh and pizza, who doesn't fancy a chicken BBQ from Dominos?
On your profile is a status: ‘Living the good life. Still busy with college though.’ What makes your life so good?
I'm in a fraternity and I'm really having the time of my life here. I'm neglecting school a little bit though; I'll have to watch out. College is a great thing, the parties, the responsibilities, living on my own 5 days out of 7. And my sister had her baby on the 4th and I'm his godfather (promotion irl!) which means a lot to me.
And what are you studying right now?
I study Businessmanagement: Finances and Insurances at college. I'm in my second year now.
Apple or Samsung, could you describe why?
If I really have to pick one I'd go for Apple. But before everyone gets their torches and pitchforks out, I only own an iPod Touch since 3 months and I've never owned a Samsung product before. So I kinda picked Apple just because I have no experience with Samsung. I do hear Samsung is better though.. Once my phone breaks I'll probably buy a smartphone and then I'll have to pick one of these two Chances are I'll buy an iPhone though, just because I'm happy with my iPod Touch!
What’s better in your opinion? Slots or Keno?
Keno! Whenever I'm bored I check every keno holder's wealth and if it's below Millionaire I'll go and try to bust it. Slots are fun but they look so hard to make profit on. I'm not that much of a gambler though, as soon as I notice I have a lot of cash on hand I just try my luck. Not addicted at all (used to be in previous rounds) and it's a great feeling to have money whenever I need it.
Is life hard as a Belgian?
It is! People laugh at our country, our government, our landmarks (a boy peeing and 9 balls). Belgium is a great place to live though, you can go from one side to another in 3 hours!
You should all watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ceg6NQKHd70, it's hilarious.
Do you have any interesting future plans?
Short-term I just want to pass my studies, and perhaps get my driver's license (I'm too lazy). Long-term I want to work in a bank or the stock market. Suiting up for work for the win! No future plans for BL, maybe inside Axteze (contact me with offers).
If you were Administrator of Bootleggers, what would you change/update first?
The kill system, don't ask me how or what but I'd change that! There are so many great ideas out there. This community is really creative but there's nobody to actually create them. I'm so glad we've got Sky now that listens to us and actually does something, keep on going James
Is there anything that you want to say to all the players?
Actually, there is! I've been mentioned in multiple buzz articles now (yes Distance and Aldo this one's for you!) and I finally get to say something back! First of all, I'm not Justin Bieber (as my crew likes to call me). Second of all, Aldo has manboobs! And third of all, (goddamnit Distance, I don't know what to say about you) AXTEZE ROCKS!
How often do you read the Buzz?
I've only started reading it this round and I've been missing out on so much! There's a lot of useful information in there and the articles are well-written most of the time. I'm glad people are still interested in writing things. I'd love to be a buzz writer myself but being a Belgian bastard, my English isn't good enough (yet).
I would like to thank BifreGoonV3 and SafiX for participating. Would you like to come in the next Behind The Name? Bootmail me, and maybe you're the next victim!
Winners of the Champions league two times.
