Q:Tell us why you chose SAM as your main job?

      Andrez: Ask Shay and she'll tell you how I run around in our backyard all day with a katana screaming bloody murder - which kinda transformed my job choice in FFXI to it. Just also the code of the bushido, everything of that nature has my interest. Was kinda destined to happen.

Q:Rumor has it your sick of playing SAM, will you be switching?

      Andrez: I could tell you but I would have to kill you.

Q:Whats the best part of playing SAM?
