Quak@WCG

[s]event_wcg[/s]

So you think you'd heard all about WCG? Well, read ahead. More stories about WCG to come. Today’s special is Pato from Argentina who now has changed his alias to Quak, with good reason. Pato in Spanish means duck, and is also a short form of Patricio, which happens to be his first name.

Your best moment?

When I arrived at the hotel and I met all the players I've played on the internet.
Also when we played soccer in the pool ^.^


Your worst moment?

Lossing vs vannilica T_T when I was 100% sure I would beat him. After that I didn't want to play more cause I was too sad cause all I've been practice for was for nothing...

Your worst mistake?

Not training enough and beeing so confident about the tourney.

Your favorite quote?

Hmm, my favourites quote during the WCG where "Pobre tutu" made by our WarcraftIII player MrTutu after loosing with Zacard on the groups.
And another cute quote was "son pibes.." also said by Mrtutu after our Counter Strike team became crazy cause they lost to Austria :P


Funniest moment?

The funniest moment by far occurred on the last day in our stay at the hotel. We started kidding around with one of the fire extiguishers in one of the hallways with half of the Argentinean team. Without thinking much about it we started using it against the walls and formed a HUGE cloud that covered the whole hallway of the hotel. When we went back into our room an alarm started to go off "PEEP PEEP, this is not a drill, please abandon the the building".

We really wanted to kill ourselves at that moment, the cloud from the extiguisher activated the hotel fire alarm system and it made a lot of people start evacuating the hotel. If that was not enough 2 fire trucks and a police car arrived T_T. Lets say that at that point we could not believe our bad luck.

When we arrived in Argentina our small prank was told in various national radios. I want to make clear, that up till today, no one knew it had been us that caused the Marriot Hotel fire evacuation. =P

LoL, the rumours had it that it had been the Brazilians. Ok, Brazil honor is clean on this one. Your future plans?

My plans for the future are to keep on with my university studies and to start learning French which I like a lot. Of course within them I have been seriously thinking in trying to win the Latin Cup (which will happen in April of next year) and why not, WCG 2005 ;)
I hope I can improve and obtain a better placement in next years WCG and the following one too =]


Requests for WCG 2005?

I can suggest that they CHANGE the maps 'cause they were to imbalanced. I didn't like any map at all. Also I would suggest to make groups match bo3 and after groups make a tourney with looser bracket.

So now you are Quak[Red] from Red Nada's team in battle.net West, why no more Pato?

Because its my name and I do not like it. I don't use "pato" as an aka no more with the exception of SOL.pato in Europe.

Thanks for your time man, any shout outs?

On a final note I would like to thank Sweden Mazor who took the above evacuation pictures and was the only one of us brave enough to run upstairs when the alarms went off because of a "fire" to see the action up close. Crazy Swedes.
