Tell us about your history in TAW.
I joined TAW over 3 years ago, when Quake Wars division was in its best time. I reached Sergeant rank after 14 months. After 5 months of being SL i was promoted to Staff Sergeant. After next 9 months i moved to League of Legends division where i stayed for over 3 months.Then I came back to QW and took XO position along with promotion to Second Lieutenant. 90 days in rank- promotion to First Lieutenant.20 days later i became CO of QW 2nd battalion.
What was your initial impression of TAW?
The very first time i saw TAW members they were playing scrim match. They seemed to be very well organized. All the time they knew what they were doing. Everyone was very friendly. I joined TAW, and i was impressed by how well organized everything was.First attendance and announcements, then splitting people into teams and debrief after games. Always the same.
Tell us about your division, and what you do there.
Quake Wars division is one of oldest in TAW. Its been here for over 5 years.We play internal tournament - Battle For Earth. Now we got 23rd season. Our teams compete against each other to get the title of best squad on the planet. My job as CO is to make sure everything goes smoothly and everyone is having fun. Quake Wars members became almost like a family :)
What would you like someone considering joining TAW to know?
Every TAW member is very friendly. Everyone is willing to help you if you need anything.
If you could change one thing about TAW, what would it be?
I would make more TAW-wide events, because i feel like people stay in their division channels all the time and don't even know whats happening in others. There are so many people who want to talk or play games with somebody.
What's your favorite thing about TAW?
It gathers all kind of people , but most of them are kind and open :)
How does TAW affect your offline life?
I learned a lot from taw members, the most form my PLs and officers When I joined TAW I barely passed bootcamp, i couldn't speak English at all. First year i was almost only listening to others , and saying only some basic commands and responses. My English improved so much since i joined...I also learned how to organize time, how to lead people so there are willing to follow you. When I'm sad i like to join our TS server , because TAW members always make me feel better no matter what happened in my real-life
What might our readers be surprised to know about you?
I always re-think everything i did at the end of a day, i think which decisions i made were good , which were bad, how can i improve. i got a headache almost everyday because of that, but its worth it anyway.
