Update 7/11/2012

The competition is over and our Fnatic players have done their best to answer as many questions as possible all whilst travelling in a gondola to some mountain near Taipei, Taiwan.

Patrik "cArn" Sättermon took his most fashionable hat with him and asked our players the questions you provided them with. You can check out the first part of the answers to these selected questions below:

Expect the second video with all the remaining questions to be put online in a couple of days. We will update this newspost with the video when it happens.

We would also like to congratulate the user hoax on winning the SteelSeries QcK+ Fnatic Mousepad, which we will be sending to him as soon as possible. Thanks to everyone else who participated and asked a question to our players.

Original Post

As most of you know, FnaticRC.cs will be competing in the upcoming K1 league playoffs in China. Our CGO, Patrik "cArn" Sättermon will be travelling with the team to China and we thought we would host a little competition.

Have you ever wanted to ask Friis the secrets to looking so photogenic or how the team puts up with FYRR73's snoring, well now is your chance! There aren't many limits here people, just keep it civil and ask anything you want. 

You can submit your questions in the comments below and cArn will select the best questions and do a video response from China with the team! When submitting a question simply put the player you are asking it to then your question.
For example, "Karrigan - What is your all time favourite map?". 

Those who submit questions will also be entered into a raffle to win a SteelSeries QcX+ Fnatic Edition mousepad. Don't put off asking a question as you only have until the 2nd of November, so make it quick!

You can also check out the teams progress during K1 playoffs: here.

    cArn:
    Do you actually consider yourself as the worlds best IGL in history? You've achieved ALOT, but when you left and Xizt stepped up fnatic were back on track. Neo hasalso stated that you are bragging about you saying you're the best, do you agree on that? What do you think about NEO saying you're the most overrated player?

    Was Gux the most raw skilled player to ever have played 1.6? because to me given all the news etc i read about him with commitment issues etc, he was still freakishly good to the point that i question whether he was the best "prac for prac" ratio compared to other players.

    I've always felt like he didn't have as much motivation, commitment or put as much time into the game as other players, yet he was still top 10 and at some points a top 5 player in the world.

    Given this i feel like he may have been one of the best if not the best raw skilled player or talented players?.

    Seeing as i didn't play with him these are really loose assumptions and i would like to know what people who played with him think.

    Well carn, everyone knows that the world of Counter Strike has changed a lot. nowadays the awards are lower, fewer sponsors, few teams ... Comparing the best era of Counter Strike, in your opinion, what caused this tragic change in the scenario? Which caused many teams leave the CS 1.6? as mTw, Evil Geniuses, WeMade FOX, Made In Brazil, mousesports, mYm, emulate, Roccat, etc.. and what is your expectation about CS: GO? CS: GO will be as valued as CS 1.6 was?

    let's say that today is the end of the world. Alien has conquered the world and they are going to kill us all.
    however they are generous, they've been fan of fnatics and have been watching, stealing online stream through the satellite.
    they have a very solid yet skillful Counter Strike 1.6 teams and they challenge fnatics team in the prize of freedom of humanity on the planet earth, (official rules, all maps, 15 rounds, startmoney 800 standard reward).
    they have a time machine that can allow 5 people to travel through the past into the present.
    from cArn's opinion, which 5 fnatics team member are worthy to face them in counter strike game? they can be any fnatics' lineup or any different mix from anytime since the fnatics are born as long as they're from fnatics.
    or maybe even the current fnatics' line are the best(I believe so)? :D
