Interview [Issue 3] Interview with Clan leaders. - PART TWO

[skitee 555]

Last month, we had interviews with five of the strongest and most famous English clans. This month, there are more interviews for you, from three more famous clans.

These clans include two German clans [boG and TTF] and one Italian clan [CP]. It was hoped that an interview could have been held with two other clans [GF and WoD] but their leaders did not contact me in time for an interview. You can read all three of the interviews below!

Cobras Poison are one of the first Italian Clans in the English community. And whilst other Italian clans have come and gone, they have been ever-present, standing and being strong throughout the months that have passed since their formation. What is it that gives them this stability?

 

-------

 

Skitee: Hi.

 

Chry: Hi.

 

Skitee: What is your tanki username, and what clan do you represent?

 

Chry: My Tanki username is Chry and I am the leader and representative from "Cobras Poison" Clan :D

 

Skitee: And what country is your clan from?

 

Chry: I and my clan are from Italy.

 

Skitee: All members from Italy?

 

Chry: Yes, we accept only Italian members. This is so that, during a clan war, we can speak Italian together and we understand each other quicker.

 

Skitee: That's a good policy, and it must be awesome to all speak the same language to each other, especially when not many tankmen speak Italian! About your clan, when were you founded and why did you create it?

 

Chry: Beforehand, there was another Italian clan and I was a simple member, but after some months it closed and a lot of Italian players weren't in a clan!

 

Skitee: So you created your clan to be a home for Italian tankers?

 

Chry: Yep

 

Skitee: And how much do you think you have succeeded in creating such a home for Italian tankers to enjoy tanki together?

 

Chry: I'm very happy to be able to create a clan that now has become official, now Italian players can play together.

 

Skitee: :) And now there are lots of Italian clans. When did you create "CP"? Can you remember what date it was?

 

Chry: Exactly 23/01/2012 00:12:04 :). Before, it existed in the Italian forum but i was not major yet and I couldn't publish it in official tanki forum :(

 

Skitee: So how long had you existed in the Italian forum before moving to the Tanki forum?

 

Chry: about..... 3 months.

 

Skitee: Ok. So what is it that has kept your clan going for almost 9 months now. Is it the people, the attitudes, or even your leadership? What do you think?

 

Chry: i think it is the attitudes and the NEW italian forum "TankiOnlineItalia.it". My member are good people. i trust them and they trust me :D

 

Skitee: Are there any particular members that you trust with leadership, or are you the only leader of your clan?

 

Chry: my clan has only 1 leader... me.... and 4 co-leaders.

 

Skitee: Do you think it's important for a clan to have co-leaders?

 

Chry: Yes, because they can help the leader for training or when i can't play they organize all! however i consider them "Leaders"

 

Skitee: Okey. What are the ambitions and aims of your clan for the future?

 

Chry: we want to become the strongest clan of English Community, after that the strongest clan of Russian Community :D

 

Skitee: :D Those aren't ambitious at all! Haha! So what do you hope will get you there? Skills? Communication? Trust?

 

Chry: Ahah if we get skills, commucation and trust , we are the perfect clan XD

 

Skitee: So what are you doing to try to build those aspects of your clan up?

 

Chry: Training war and clan wars against the current clans and trying to understand how to overcome them.

 

Skitee: Done any clan wars recently? How've your clan wars gone?

 

Chry: Recently we tried to have a clan war against DD, but we couldn't play it because tanki don't make battle! Now, there isn't this problem and I think soon we will play against them. We aren't a bad clan ;)

 

Skitee: Alright. Anyway, we have to wrap it up here. Is there anything more you would like to say? To the devs, for example, or to thank members of your clan?

 

Chry: Yes, i want to thank my member for the wonderful clan wars 8-) and the TankiOnlineItalia.it staff for the good job they do every day. Thanks :thumbup:

 

Skitee: Ok. I wish you all the best of luck in the future, and hope you complete your aims! Bye!

 

Chry: thanks, bye :D

 

Skitee: :)

The first clan to be created in the German part of the forum, Best of German (BoG) have an illustrious history. Whilst other clans, most notably TTF, would try to deny that they are the best German clan, they certainly are strong. They are located highest in the clan rankings out of the German and English clans, and despite boasting not the best clan war record, they still are tough opponents to fight against.

Skitee: Hello

 

Waldsee: Hi

 

Skitee: Thank you for taking the time to have an interview today. What is your tanki nickname, and what clan do you represent?

 

Waldsee: No Problem, My Nickname is waldsee and I represent the clan "BeSt Of GeRmAn"

 

Skitee: Ok. May I ask why there are random capital letters in your clan's name? Why not "Best Of German"?

 

Waldsee: it looks better :P

 

Skitee: Haha, if you say so. I personally prefer the "normal" text. Anyway, were your clan the first German Clan?

 

Waldsee: Yes, our clan was the first german clan, we opened the clan at the 04.08.2011

 

Skitee: Okey-dokey. Sorry, I'm going to be inactive for a minute. I'm trying to help my dad kill some squirrels living in my house.

 

Waldsee: No problem.

 

Skitee: Ok, I'm back. Sorry for the wait. Why was it that you opened your clan? And did anyone open your clan with you?

 

Waldsee: When we created our clan, there were no German clans at that time. We dreamed to make another strong clan, such as SS or DD. And we hoped to get the strongest german clan. But there was a problem..I knew nothing about clans..so the player "frommy" helped me to create the clan

 

Skitee: Ok. And have other German clans been created since you created yours?

 

Waldsee: A long time ago, we were the only German clan. We said that the Germans are one nation and that we don't need other clans. But then we had lots of problems and some players said that they don't want to play with us any more. So they created new clans, like TTF.

 

Skitee: Okay. Does your clan have a strong rivalry with these other clans?

 

Waldsee: Yes, with TTF we are good rivals. But the other German clans don't have as much experience.

 

Skitee: Alright. So your clan was created once the German forum and tanki came out, right?

 

Waldsee: Yeah, I think so :D

 

Skitee: Ok. Do you think there being a German tanki is a good thing? Why do you think the tanki admins made a German tanki instead of, say, a Portuguese version?

 

Waldsee: Yes, it was a good idea to create a german Tanki , because the german players could meet in the german server and we could create the clan :) And I think that they created a german tanki because there are much more German players than Portuguese or so on.

 

Skitee: M-hmm. Anyway, about your clan: What do you think is the most important thing to your clan? Organisation, friendship, weaponary, teamwork? What is it?

 

Waldsee: I think all of them are important. You need all of these things if you want to go far as a clan.

 

Skitee: I agree that they are all important. But which one is the MOST important to your clan?

 

Waldsee: Hmm, then I think that Teamwork is most important for my clan because, if one member need help in a battle, we will try everything to support him.

 

Skitee: Nice, I like that mentality. What is your aim for the clan in the future? As a clan, what do you want to achieve?

 

Waldsee: Our aim is it, to compete with the best russian clans.

 

Skitee: And win? :P

 

Waldsee: Sure :D

 

Skitee: Haha. What are you trying to do to achieve that aim?

 

Waldsee: We train with lots of Russian clans, and after each game we are and will be better.

 

Skitee: Well, good luck! Is there anyone you'd like to thank for their help to the clan, as we wrap up this interview?

 

Waldsee: I want to thank strannnik, he makes all the nice pics on our clanpage. However, his account is now blocked. :( And I want to thank all my members, that they stay with me in good and in bad times!

 

Skitee: Alright. Thanks for taking your time with the interview today! Bye!

 

Waldsee: It is me who has to thank you! :)

 

[skitee 555]

 

The Tactical Fighters (TTF) have been a common face in the English and German clans community for a long time. They were just the second German clan to be formed, and have been a stalwart clan in the English community as well, most notably being the only clan to have beaten Shadow Strikers in the unofficial clan tournament. What has given them these successes?

 

-------

 

Skitee: Hi

 

Scholzi96: Hi

 

Skitee: Thank you for agreeing to having this interview today. What is your name, and what clan are you leader of?

 

Scholzi96: My real name is private but my real nickname is "Scholle" - everyone calls me that so that is enough. I am the Leader of The Tactical Fighters (TTF).

 

Skitee: And your tanki callsign is?

 

Scholzi96: scholzi96

 

Skitee: Ok. And are you the only leader of TTF or are there other leaders?

 

Scholzi96: My friend juli96 is Leader, too. Moreover we have 3 Co Leaders.

 

Skitee: Alright. So about your clan, when did you start? What was the date you created your clan, and what caused you to create your own clan?

 

Scholzi96: Oficial I created it on the 23/12/2011 but we talkes about 1 month about it and planed things. The main reason I created the Clan was that just one German Clan existed and me and my friends where enough to create and own so we did.

 

Skitee: So why did you create your own clan rather than joining the existing German clan, BoG? What is different about your clan to BoG?

 

Scholzi96: Before creating my own Clan I was Member of BoG. I didn't like the Clan there. It had very much members. The leader hadn't got any experience of leading a clan. In my opinion BoG and TTF are really alike. But differences are the kind of leading the Clan. I like planing things. They prefer making offhanded things.

 

Skitee: So what kind of plans do you like making? How do you plan your clan's activities?

 

Scholzi96: We have weekly Clantrainings. They are every week at the same date, so everyone is online then. When I make offhanded things I have the risc that members aren't online, haven't got much time and so on. Clanactivities I usually first plan just with the other leader or for my own. When I'm finished I publish the ideas the other leaders.

 

Skitee: Alright. And do you think that that organisation vastly strengthens your clan? How can you see it helping your members?

 

Scholzi96: I think yes. My organisation isn't the best of course I like the one of SS better. But it is good enough to be an good international Clan. My members don't really are interested in the organisation. They want to play and do what I say. They are always motivated to beat the next enemie. They get there free time and have their fun but when it gets earnest they are there.

 

Skitee: Ok, I get you. What is your aims in the future for your clan?

 

Scholzi96: I have the aim to beat SS and DD in an official clanwar. Also I would like to win as much contests and tournaments with my Clan as we can. And maybe in far future we are a legend like SS and DD.

 

Skitee: Is there anything you are doing with your clan at the moment to help you to achieve those lofty aims?

 

Scholzi96: We are training weekly against DD and soon against SS. We fight against the best to learn from the best. Also we are training skills and just have the best members.

 

Skitee: Aha. Well, I wish you all luck. Before we end our conversation, if there is one thing about your clan - anything - that is different from every other clan that you know of, what would it be?

 

Scholzi96: Thanks I wish it you too. Hmmm difficult question but I think we are not so well known then other clans and so often we get underestimated. maybe a difference could be that we let worser players join to educate them.

 

Skitee: Alright. Thanks for taking the time for the interview, and I wish you luck for the future! Is there anyone you'd like to thank for their work in the clan since you were founded?

 

Scholzi96: Yes a big thank you to our Designer with his great work and also to my great Members. Yeah good luck for you, too.

 

Skitee: Thank you.
