Get to know a UT3 player - JPINATOR

Welcome everyone to the latest installment of Get To Know A UT3 Player. I’m your guest host Bain (filling in for JPINATOR for obvious reasons). I first met JP when I started playing Warfare about ten months ago. It didn’t take long to realize she was one of the really special people in UT3. Not only is she very skilled and a total blast to play with, but she has a true love for UT3 as a lot of you know. For those of you that don’t know her, you’re in for a real treat. Ladies and gentlemen, here’s JP!

Unfortunately, Warfare has seen a decline in players over the past months. Any ideas on how to bring it back?

I noticed this, which is sad. I am currently trying to think of something that we can do to jump start this, what I have been hearing from people is the lack of "good games" meaning getting a room full of people with no noobs. I get compliments about our iAM practices on Sunday nights where we lock a server and invite people in. I would like to ask the community what they think or want to get warfare active again.

Recently I have asked Omni to leave his locked server up in Warfare and invite people in, I’ve gotten a good response, especially since there was Nootsac, DOD, Lunchy in the match, very skilled players and veterans that I would like to see more of and so should the community.

I　used to play a lot of Greed with the titan mode but not so much anymore. Did you　get sick　of the Titan Pack? I know I did.

I did get sick with it, haven’t played Greed in a while and will not enter a server now with titan, it got abused.

I can't ever imagine you being a noob but what was it like and do you have any embarra**ing moments from the early days?

It was fun to know that everyone thought I was a little boy when I was a noob, plus like everyone else said to this question, it was nice just messing around and not getting into trouble, like spawn killing. which I did a lot in downtown haha!

I know I did a lot of embarra**ing moments back in the day when I was new to GOW. Once everyone found out that I was a girl (which was funny to hear the reactions) I wanted to prove to everyone that I got the skill, let’s just say I may have tried too hard and made myself look really bad.

I haven’t used any redeemers on my core thinking it’s the enemies, a lot of people have done that from reading these interviews, I have blown them in my face tons of times but I know I have caught myself running around thinking I have the orb, I jumped on the node and nothing happened, and of course dying by vehicles spawning on top of me.

Video games are generally thought of as being the domain of males. And of course, guys will be guys. Anything you would like to say to us regarding our in-game behavior, treatment of female players, etc.?

From what I have come across, I haven’t been treated badly because of me being female, I know some girls have but I can’t really comment on that. A lot of guys treat me like "one of the guys" but I know flirting has come across, but there is nothing wrong with a little flirt here and there for fun as long as you know how to control it and everyone knows the boundaries.

What dislikes about UT3 do you have? What would you do to improve UT3?

I really don’t have any dislikes, just wish there was more people playing this game. I guess the worst pet peeve I have and I know I have voiced this a couple times. I really hate it when teams are way uneven in regards to players or skill and that said team goofs off and does annoying things. The teams are uneven, there is no need to be jerks about it.

Yes, I agree. Get the game over with. Don’t torture an outmatched team.

Besides myself of course, which players do you really like playing with for their skills? For a fun time?

I’ll be honest, there is a select few people in this game that I get all excited about when I see them either on my team or on the opposite team. That would be Nootsac, Lunchy and Spagender. These 3 are my idols, someone that in the past present and future that I wanted to be like for skill.

As for the other people that I would like to mention, you keep me addicted to this game and especially to warfare. You guys are the reason why I sign into UT3 and PSN.

Everyone in iAM especially TwoFase, thank you for allowing me to join! Anyone who at once supported a GOW tag or still do, you guys started my obsession; we had some great times together!! My CKC beasts, Loke, Pinakul, switch, Trainwreck my BFF 4Eva!!, Zodiac, Bain, including TX, thanks for putting up with "crankiness" and my random porn sessions in chat guys, you let me have fun in and out of game. Cokkenballs, my longest known friend and companion. Helscream, you piss me off a lot in game, but you know what the heck you are doing, I give you props to that. DOD, Woolvie and Juggie in TDM, People that were with me in snowreal and alloverdm parties!

To the members of my old clans even though we may have had some rough patches, it was still an honor to play with you all, tWc and ICN!

Special props go to GoDead, the one player that has helped me a lot in my shooting and foot mode area. You took the time to grace me with your knowledge and made me a half a** decent player on foot. You are also someone who puts up with me a lot! You are a great player and deserve more recognition! Thank you!

Who do you find really tough to go up against?

Of course, Nootsac, Lunchy and Spag, others would be Woolvie, Helscream and Ghost. Crow, Xkal1, Ewokk have proved to me that I don’t belong in DM lol.

Did any of these players help you become the player that you are today? Who else had an influence on you?

Everyone that I know in this game has influenced me, I still learn things every day.

I think you've got one of the best senses of humor in UT3. What has made you really laugh while playing this game?

Watching people die in weird situations, for instance. I was playing warfare in Downtown, I was at the enemy prime healing it and Tx2k7 was doing the same, a damaged manta that was empty just popped up on top of our node, I remembering saying something like "Woah" because it was so random, like someone just dropped it off, one second later TX got into it and before he could move 1 inch, BOOM, he was blown to pieces, I was laughing so hard because it all happened so fast and I had a front row seat. I love finding myself in the front row seats of these random happenings, especially head shots.

Zodiac and his freak out moments, whenever he either has the orb or the redeemer and he’s trying to run away and also when he sings "What what in the butt" it never fails to make me laugh.

Everyone in this game that I play with has something funny to say, it’s horrible that people get too worked up over a video game.

I actually laugh the most in the chat rooms, the topics we talk about are as random as ever and that’s why I love them. From Pinakul being God, to TXs sheep laugh and Bains witty comments he says every 10min but says nothing else. I could do without TwoFase posting up pictures of women rumps, who uses the word rumps anymore? I’m bringing it back! "Rumpshaker, All I wanna do is a zoom zoom and a boom boom!"

I’d also have to say that playing LBP with GoDead, DOD, Zodiac and everyone else is pretty gosh darn funny, another game that people die a lot and at random times.

What are the stupidest things that you have ever done in game?

I’m not going to list these lol, mainly because I can’t think of any, cause if I get caught doing something dumb I usually try to forget about it fast, but feel free to comment on this, I want to know what I have done haha.

Well, we’ll end it there. I don’t want to tarnish your image so I’ll keep quiet about those.
