I’ve got an interview scheduled, GULP!

Okay I think I may be dropping into the deep end here, but at the EIF next Monday I’ll be interviewing Hilmar Petursson, CEO of CCP.

I went and bought a dictaphone, I’ve come up with some questions, but other than that I’m completely lost. I have no Idea about the etiquette for these affairs or the best way to go about making sure I get to ask all the things I want to in the time allotted.

I am aware of the need to prioritise questions, ask the ones that you definitely want answers to first. I also know that I may need to ad-lib some questions on the fly if the conversation heads in an interesting direction. Time will be limited, and I have to squeeze in a reader question (if I get any).

I’m going to be squeezing in a lot of research over the next week, both into the man himself and what he’s said previously about EVE, I don’t want to be asking questions that he’s been asked before.

Any advice would be gratefully recieved.

    “Well, Hilmar, no one could have anticipated the development of the MMORPG. What’s coming next?”
