interview: tau
I had the opportunity to sit down with Beavis007 and Lance from the Texas Area Untouchables. We tried to keep the interviews brief and to the point. Read on..

CS-Nation's lovable Orion: What clan do you currently play for, and what are some of your past clans?
TAU's Beavis007: I play for TAU - Texas Area Untouchables and have pretty much played serious with them for about the past 3 years. No past clans that i've been serious with

TAU's Lance: I currently play for Texas Area Untouchables. Some other clans ive been in are =)SP!(=, -esi-, noEqual, and [BiO].
CS-Nation: When did you begin to play Counter-strike in league play?
Beavis: I started to play CS league play in about beta 6.5 I think

Lance: I started cs late 1.1 a few months before 1.3 came out. I got into cs at school in free time during a Visual Basic class. It must have been just a few weeks after i actually started playing on my own computer, in early 1.3 for a lesser known league called OGL. I started playing in CAL later in 1.3.
CS-Nation: What was the first LAN event you attended, and did you play for a team or just go for fun?
Beavis: First LAN event I attended was a Domain Of Games league lan for fun in Dallas Texas hosted by DoG and Frank Nuccio.

Lance: The first LAN event for me was a CPL qualifier in Ohio with noEqual. I wasn't really nervous, I was just a no name trying to do good and have fun, there was no stress like a lot of people have playing competitve cs feeling like they have something to lose, we didn't get the birth unluckily, DoP decided to go to the same qualifier :).
CS-Nation: How did you meet up with TAU, and how did you get in?
Beavis: I played with a clan called KEG which is where TAU evolved from. Actually SolarCurve and I started TAU. Im the only original member left.
CS-Nation: The CAL and UGS seasons are opening up, WCG is coming up. What are your plans for the listed?
Beavis: We'll we have been working hard to get ready for WCG as well as getting all our travel plans in order. As for CAL and UGS were just hoping to do our best and hopefully win UGS to get the CyberX autoberth.

Lance: We will of course be in CAL, we will also be playing in UGS invite this season to try to get some more practice in and that autoberth for CyberX. TAU is bringing a team to WCG which I will not be attending.
