Each week we at the Buzz interview two random players of Bootleggers. How random? Well, we go to the Users Online, close our eyes and we have a few clicks. Awesome, we know. Unfortunately only one interview this week. Ah well, still awesome! Here is the interview of this week! Enjoy!
Stoveboy
Hello Stoveboy! Could you introduce yourself to the Bootleggers Community?! Ofcourse! My name is Ting, I am 21 years old and I live in The Netherlands. Im currently studying IT and as a hobby I produce music. I've been playing Bootleggers for about 4 weeks now, I really like the gambling in this game.
A new player, awesome! IT, that's a lot stuff with computers?! Indeed, we learn to build computers and fix them, we learn to code in Ubuntu, MSDOS, Windows, Joombla etc. Also fixing internet,and maintaining networks. Either wireless or wired.
Why did you pick that study? I choose for this study because as many other people I enjoy playing games. A few years ago I did create some Bunny Track maps for the game Unreal Tournament. I really enjoy designing, or being creative. For gaming you also need a good computer if you want to enjoy the graphics some games have to offer. So I have build my own and really liked building it. My study was the closest I could get to my interests and I'm glad I chose it!
Building your own computer?! Where to start? Well I suggest you should start doing some research before building your first computer. A simple thing like forgetting to discharge static electricity can be fatal for all of your hardware.
When did you start with your hobby? It's pretty... complicated stuff. I started making music in 2006. It began with some mixing with Virtual DJ but after a few weeks I knew I wanted to make my own music. If I would ever be booked for a party, I would want to play my own music, instead of being just a DJ and spin other peoples music. I started creating Hardstyle, a euphoric music genre bumping at 150 beats per minute. I've tried other genres but I feel the most comfortable making hardstyle.
Awesome! Every DJ has a name, right? What's yours?! Thats right, I am the one and only..... Stoveboy!
What a surprise?! Can we find some of your music on the internet?! Yes there is, I have a facebook page where I post all my updates and a soundcloud containing the music. You can find them here:

Sweeeeet! Bootleggers time! How did you start playing Bootleggers? To be honest I have no idea how I found out about it back when I started. I recently came back when I was on vacation at my cousins house halfway true The Netherlands. I only had my laptop with me and wondered what I could play. My laptop's graphic card cannot handle decent games so I brainstormed a bit and I thought about Bootleggers. I looked it up and registrated, and when I logged in I saw the timers at the top. This convinced me to give it another try, and here I am! Too bad they were only for 7 days, but I'm already used to playing without them.
Awesome! What makes Bootleggers so addicting for you? Well Its easy to do besides whatever you are doing. Whenever im working on a track, I can do some crimes in between, an OC a day, and gamble when i want a little break. I have met some nice people too and there is always a chance to meet new people.
What's your favourite feature? I think I like the missions the most, they add a kind of story line to the game, and gives you something to do. Every time I finish a mission I wonder whats coming next.
What kind of features is Bootleggers missing? At the moment there is nothing I could think of. Perhaps the Keno could use an update, I think it should show one by one which number gets picked so you don't immediately see if you won something, but make it a little more interesting like the Slot Machines.
Fair enough! Random questions incoming! Favourite DJ? Hmm I don't really have a favorite but I really think the Noisecontrollers are really great producers and DJ's. Production wise they always deliver top quality tracks. As for festivals I'd really like to see Adaro, Digital Punk and B-Front.
Awesome! Tell us about the last dream you had that you remember! Well, I sometimes listen to music before going to sleep and eventually I fell asleep. I started dreaming and when a track I made myself came on I dreamed that I was editing the song I heard but when I changed the knobs nothing happened. Most of the time I only remember small parts, if I remember any at all.
Rofl! Carl or Karl? Carl!
That was seriously random. Favourite emoticon on Bootleggers?! I don't use them a lot but I like to use on occasions.
Pure awesomeness. So, DJ Stoveboy, what’s behind your name?! To be honest I have no clue, when I was younger I played a game named Maplestory. I used this name back then but I cannot remember why. I took this name again because I thought it sounded kinda catchy. At first friends were like; Huh? Stoveboy? But now they are used to it and they like it (Not that I would change it, I think its nice).
on occasions.
