Q3Centers very own BigDog

Before and After

1.) How'd you get started in the WebMastering Game and/or who was your inspiration.

It all started with Ben’s DooM Page back in ’95, complete with fully centered content, default fonts, and animated gifs. I was into Doom and the whole mapping and editing scene, id Software became my main interest, and my inspiration. So I’ve followed everything they’ve done since Doom.

2.) What's the most outrageous thing you ever did ON your site.

I guess that would be letting one of my staff publish an article that was incredibly controlversial and, well, wrong. It blamed the gaming companies for acts of violence in schools basically. I really caught some Hell for that. Then there was putting up my fakie overclocking guides which helped you overclock stuff like mousepads, monitors, and printers. That was a trip.

3.) People you admire in the industry. ( please limit your answer to 2 people and EXCLUDE me, thats a given. . )

Billy "Wicked" Wilson from VoodooExtreme, he rules. I think VE is by far the best news site on the web and he makes it work. He’s also pretty damned funny.

Also you’ve gotta love Lowtax. He used to be content director at PlanetQuake (and was wrongfully let go in my opinion), and is now running Something Awful, a site that if it went offline I would have withdrawals.

4.) What's the most annoying thing to deal with as a WebStud.

If I ever meet a WebStud I’ll let you know. But one thing that is annoying as a site manager is teaching staff newbies the system. When Q3Center went through a big "Hiring stage" we got about ten new people on staff. I had to teach every one of them our intranet system and the rest of the stuff accompanied with working at Q3C. It sucked.

5.) Does your nick-name get you the hotties. . . . or is that where you got the nick??

I think "Bigdog" is, well, your typical adrenaline/testosterone induced nickname. Basically it serves the purpose of proving some people’s points that Quake players are idiots. Grunt, Grunt, Argh!!!

6.) Tips you can give Web-Jedi in training

Don’t smoke crack. The rest of my tips are secrets.

7.) Drink of Choice

Wow, this question actually made me think the most out of all of them. I’d have to say Mountain Dew for taste only, Firewater for getting fux0red up, and Hooch for a mix of both.

8.) Tunes of Choice

Live, Creed, Pearl Jam, Deftones (when in "that" mood), Limp Bizkit, KoRn, Third Eye Blind, Smashing Pumpkins, and some rap.

9.) Babe of Choice

Erin. You don’t know her

10.) Vehicle of Choice

BMW, any model.

and the bonus question

If you had to choose between answer no. #9 and number #10. . . . who's gonna win and why!?!?!?!?!

#9 because I already have her. Tangibles vs. Intangibles there I guess. If I had a straight out choice I’d still pick #9 though.
