Blackox Interview:
Q3W Team 


Nick Name: Blackox
Real Name:
Adam McCarthy

Questions 1: What do you enjoy most about the Holidays? 

Answer:  I like getting to see family and friends, and everyone being in a good mood because they got presents for the people they care about and are about to receive gifts too. I dunno, it's the one time of year to be all goobery and not want to puke.

Questions 2:Can you explain your current activity in the gaming community? What are the games you have enjoyed since you stopped playing Quake 1? 

Answer: After Quake 1 I left the gaming community disenfranchised and with all of my illusions shattered. I moved to Alaska, and only play Atari 2600 games and pong in an effort to get back to my roots....hehehehehe no, I enjoy pretty much any game.

Questions 3: In what way do you feel the Quake community has changed since Quake III Arena came out last year? 

Answer: More and more people have come into playing online multiplayer games that would not normally be considered or consider themselves gamers. So more diversity in the people playing as well as the general view of games in general. Qukae 3 was a big part of this.

Questions 4: Have you had a chance to check the Team Arena Demo yet? If so, what do you enjoy the most about it?

Answer: nope.

Questions 5: With id Software's new project being focused on Doom, is there any features you would like this upcoming game to include?

Answer: Obviously a skin and level editor. I'd also like to see an option to have persistant remains. In other words, dead bodies remain on the active level. That way you could stack bodies, create a barrier of the dead etc...obviously this feature should be able to be toggled on and off, but it would be cool. You could kill yourself 50 times in a general pattern and hide behind a wall of dead yous...that would be cool. 

  • XN-Vandal: Adam is like a black ox. We all know what that means. He's a great guy, even though he lives in Texas, and without him, this site wouldn't even be around, along with half the sites on the XN Network. Well, they just wouldn't have a way to let them be updated at all. Blackox Rox!

  • Cali Girl: Blackox helped Quake3world.com with the Team Arena Trivia Contest a while back. He runs all of the technical stuff like linux and other related things on the servers for over a year for XtremeNetwork.com. As for other things, he has been working on the finger tracker for Quake3world.com the past week or so.
