Nick Knupffer Interviewed

Posted by Dev at 18:29 11/12/2002.

UKCSA have done an exclusive interview with Nick Knupffer the gaming programme manager from Intel UK. The interview obviously focuses on the Intel Masters event that will be taking place on the 21st of December. Here is an extract:

Similar to the CPL tournaments, the Intel Masters will also be running throughout a single day. This has many a time proven hard among LAN events including the popular I-series events. Why and how, do you think you will cope with the running of the tournaments throughout the day?
Nick: Well, we have put an enormous amount of time into planning and preparation. We have contingency plans for any set up issues on the day and we have plenty of spare power. Being Intel we have access to a great deal of engineering support!
We have an army of organised and experienced LAN admins and we are practicing our drills as much as the clans are practising their games.

Read the full interview here. Also, information on the Intel event can be found here.
