Andy "mong00se" Orme interviewed by Enemydown about UKeSA

Thursday 19th March 2009

The interview talks about Andys past in gaming, how he started playing FIFA seriously, what his thoughts are on UKeSA and his selection in the Premiership. It also gauges his thoughts on the UKeSA Open Division and the lack of attendance and no-shows as well as his current performance.

As a snippet from the interview;

"Enemy Down: Gamers were quite vocal regarding the running of the Open Division. What would you have done differently to get that division running smoothly?

Mongoose: What UKeSA should have done was to check to see if players and teams were still willing to play. There were so many no shows because players and teams that have signed up to the Open Division didnt bother to tell the admins that they werent going to be participating. Most of them were hoping to play for money. I guess when it was transpired that these gamers can only win prize money through the Championship and Premiership divisions, with only a selection of games being picked for the inclusion of the upper tiered divisions, they felt there was no point in playing.


Maybe if there was something to play for in the Open Division, like some prize money, I think there would be more interest in that division."
