Thanks to TurkeyTanQ for sacrificing his time for this interview. It was a fast one. Here we go:

Tell us a bit about yourself.
- My name is Serkan Gözkaya and i am known as TurkeyTanQ in the ET. I am 18 years old and just finished high school and going to university next year.I live in Ankara, the capital of Turkey.

How long and why were you away?
- I've been inactive since August 2009 because I had to study a lot this year, had to be prepared for university entrance exams.

How did it go, what are your expectations?
- I think I made it fine. I won't make the highest grades but I think I will make enough points to study machine engineering. I am waiting for the results to be announced at the moment, I can't do anything else :D

You seem to have a lineup ready for you, including TurkeyKaZe, TurkeykaZer, TurkeyMetC and BelgiumFrauwe. What are you planning to do?
-Yeh, by the time i was inactive i made some plans for my return already. I talked to some of my old mates from team turkey and ex team mates. They are all my old mates and i played together with each of them for a long time. We decided to become a team then. We are now planning to play the summercup.

Are you willing to play for Team Turkey again?
-Yes, I am going to play for team turkey and also going to apply for being the captain, planning to do some good things for the next NC.

Alot of Turkish players were worried of the communication problem among team turkey, what about it?
-There is no such thing, to be honest, we can communicate without any problems.

What will you do to remove the rust?
-That is a nice point tbh. I am a bit rusty,but thats not a big problem, I will do my best to regain my performance. I will play public/mix/pracc regularly.

Are you, both individually and clanwise, assertive in the upcoming Summercup organised by ClanBase?
-Yes in both ways, we will do our best in this season. We are not so ready but we will work hard in these weeks to get to our maximum performance. I hope it wil be a great season.

Will you continue with the noobstick?
-Yes of course I will. I added some skill too on my rnade shots and I am aiming for perfection.

Thanks TurkeyTanQ for the great information. Good luck on Summercup and on your future ET career. Let's give TurkeyTanQ a warm welcome!
