i34: Pete Interviewed
@ i34 channel

Cadred caught up with Pete from noREPLY who finished top six.

Hey Pete, how's the tournament been for you?
It's been a very good tournament, ran well and on time. Matches have all gone well, much better than online, the communications good.
Some may say you had a very easy bracket, would you say this is a fair assessment?
Well we beat three teams seeded higher than us, TCM screwed up the brackets by coming second in their group. Alot of teams we played like ZEN and Anomaly beat other top teams such as TLR and fm! Toxic, we would have played them instead. So our bracket wasn't that easy but some of the teams made it easier for us.
We don't hear much about noREPLY online, are you pretty much a LAN team?
No, we've been practising in alot of PCW's, we just haven't entered any leagues. We've been quite quiet, Seymonster left about 2-3 weeks ago and we replaced him with mOle, which wasn't the best preparation, but he fits into the team well.
You being quiet seems to have given you a possibly low seeding, were you surprised at the seed?
We were quite dissapointed with the seed, we thought we could beat anyone outside the top six, as we'd been beating them online. Obviously we'd have our ups and downs online but on LAN we were sure we could up our game.
Where do noREPLY go from here?
Personally I'm taking a two week break now, but I think we're going to carry on. Hopefully we'll be at the next LAN's.
With the inevitable post i34 shuffle, would you want to move into some of the newly vacant spots created?
I wouldn't leave noREPLY, I don't see the point as you have to start again. Personally I like to stick with teams and not just hop about. Everyone in our team played well, and there wasn't a weak link.
What did you think of the final?
We got knocked out by both Reason and Salvo and based on those games I thought reason were better. Watching the final Salvo were just miles ahead of them.
What did you think of the venue?
It's a nice venue, I like the fact that all the games are in one room. It's further away for me to come, which is annoying. The food is way overpriced, compared to Newbury.
Thanks for your time.
