lurrpis

Everybody knows who lurppis is but we want to know who the man behind the nick is. Could you tell us the story about yourself?
- I'm an 18 year old student from Espoo, Finland. I'm really competitive, I used to play many different sports such as football, floorball, ice-hockey etc, and I think CS for me is basically a substitute for them, I'm definitely in it for the competition. I'm currently attending high school for the third year, but because I've taken so much time off to attend various tournaments around the world it's going to take four years for me to complete instead of regular three, so that's still going to take a while.

How would you describe yourself as a person and how do you think that people would describe you, positive and negative.
- I think I'm patient and a leader type of person, I'm always the guy that takes care of everything and that likes to have the control. If I do something I usually give it my best, I don't like doing things "ok", either I don't do it or I'm going to give it my best. Bad things... I'm a really bad loser, I hate losing whether it's being wrong about something or losing an important match at a tournament, I can't stand it... Which is why I work really hard to not lose, haha.

In what kind of quarters are you living in, a mansion or an apartment, tell us a bit about it.
- I don't want to work while attending high school and since I'm not getting enough salary to live on my own, I'm still living at my parents in a flat.
