Meet the staff pt. XVII: Karpo

[Anarky]

Hello there and welcome to the final installment of the "MTS"-session. There are two mods left, who had to return before they could answer/agree on the project, but anyways, here they are.

You still know the rules, right? Ask Karpo anything you want, he does not answer questions he does not want to and please post something useful for new members.

PS: The thread, with all answers so far, is located here (http://thetechnodrome.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11458)

OK, here we go.

How did you get to know about the Mirage TMNT comics?

[damnhooligan]

Dear Karpo, what adventures did you get up to during your extended absence from the 'Drome?

[That Matt Guy]

Tell about your homeworld... I mean Finland.

[Barkworm]

Why are people in Scandinavia so much better educated than people in Germany or elsewhere (they really are)?

[Anarky]

Is it true, that you don't have dubbed movies on TV?

[ThirdMarioBro]

I always ask this to everyone.

If you had the chance to whack one person as hard as you wanted in the world, who would it be?

What's your favorite video game?

If you could change a decision you made in life, what would it be?

[Anarchistguy]

If you could murder someone, who would it be?

[Sewer Bull]

Where did you get your nick from?

Here are the answers:

How did you get to know about the Mirage TMNT comics?
When the TMNT craze hit Finland, I read about Laird and Eastman on a news paper, but didn't give it much tought at the time. It was 2002 I believe when I read the first issue from the official site, and fell in love instantly.

Dear Karpo, what adventures did you get up to during your extended absence from the 'Drome?
Well it included graduating from a Finnish equivalent of Highschool, lots of partying, drinking.. you know the drill. Also lots of new personal stuff that left little time to spend on the TMNT hobby of mine. But things have setteled down somewhat, and since I had time to catch up with the comics and the show, I thought it was time to get back to the Drome as well.

Tell about your homeworld... I mean Finland.
Hot short summers, long cold winters, strong beer, beautifull women... Many say it to be the USA of Europe, whatever the hell that means.

Why are people in Scandinavia so much better educated than people in Germany or elsewhere (they really are)?

That you would have to ask from someone smarter than me.

Is it true, that you don't have dubbed movies on TV?

Yep. Every movie here, in theaters or TV is subtitled. Except some children's movies, wich usually come with both dubbed and original voices.

If you had the chance to whack one person as hard as you wanted in the world, who would it be?

The inspector who I got my driver's license from few years ago. The prick made do the test again for a little speeding...

What's your favorite video game?

Tough one. I play with both consoles and PC so I'l pick one for each. For consoles: Chrono Trigger. Japanese RPGs have always been one of my favorite genres, and CT is my all time favorite. For PC: Gabriel Knight. Very well written adventure game with amazing voice cast and incredible mood. They just don't make games like that anymore...

If you could change a decision you made in life, what would it be?

Breaking up one relationship, won't go into details, sorry.

If you could murder someone, who would it be?

I don't feel like murdering anyone at the moment.

Where did you get your nick from?

Person named Hannu Karpo has a TV show in Finland, it's a joke but you'd have to have seen the show to get it.
