Hey everyone -- so periodically I do a series called 'Rising Stars' where we do a very in-depth interview with an up-and-coming or recently successful tournament player, and ask interesting things that the community wants to know. The point is to help people become more familiar with players they don't know as well, or to give people more background on players they've heard of and allow those players to share their thoughts.

Here are a couple of the previous intereviews if you want to see what the format is like:
KDZ - http://testyourmight.com/threads/injustices-rising-stars-kdz-interview.35269/
Sonic Fox - http://testyourmight.com/threads/rising-stars-interview-sonic-fox.28316/

It's about time for a couple more installments of the series; so I'm going to pose this question to people in the community: which of these players would you like to see interviewed in-depth?

-GGA PimPimJim -- An interesting and mysterious player with an equally interesting FG history. We were going to do one for him at an earlier date, but it fell through due to him becoming temporarily washed up after Toryuken. However, he is back bigger than ever with his recent victory at NEC.

-Grr -- Grr was a relative unknown to most people in the community before he captured hearts and minds with his underdog runs at Next Level Battle Circuit. In a short span of time, he has grown to be quite the force, and he is now coming off his biggest placing after making top 8 in winners with Bane at NEC.

-EMP DarthArma -- A fantastic guy, who has quickly become one of the most dangerous Batman players in the game along with helping out at several events behind the streamer's desk and commentary booth. Not everyone knows his FG background (and likely, some of it may surprise you).

ForeverKing -- King is probably already on the cusp of being a full-blown star; but alot of people (myself included) probably don't know or would like to know more about his background in video gaming, how he trains with his brother, etc.

-RDK|Tyrant -- A star in his own right, and probably one of the more captivating players in both MK9 and IGAU -- but he's been consistently humble and doesn't talk much about himself.

-Emperor Theo -- We could find out the story behind why Theo sometimes resembles a 70's electrician.

To be fair, I'll probably use the votes to pick one of the more well-known guys and one of the lesser-known players. In any case, I'm curious to see what people think.

PPJ stole Tyrant's scarf after beating him and Theo is a serial killer, so I my vote can't go to either of them.

Tyrant/Arma would be my vote.

Ok, so Grr has gone deadbeat and is not replying to his interview.

So, I'm going to move down the list to the player with the next most votes, and that's Tyrant. It actually works out well, because I've been wanting to interview Tyrant for a while, and the timing is good with SCR.

If there's anything you particularly want to know about Tyrant, post some q's here and I'll add some of them if they're thoughtful/well-written.

Trying to know more about some other players life instead of focusing on your own is pretty sad. Lol
How do you come up with such inspirational, insightful and community-building posts.

Well jeez guys I don't get a vote at all? :(
This was pre-KiT, when you were still training undercover at your secret hideout in the Appalachian mountains :)

I want recognition too. I got a top 8 at GBS. That's clearly at the same level as top 8 at a major. :DOGE

EDIT: Also, people clearly want to know more about me.
