I stare out the window and take in the view from the 68th floor of the Chrysler building in NY City.

It’s a hazy first day of March in front of me; behind me, there’s a buzz rattling through the offices.

 

I sit in the lobby of KONFLIKT FC’s headquarters. I am here to meet the man behind the resurrection of this one time dominant force on the Tycoon world, Mr. Petro Farantni. He has granted me an exclusive interview and look at the inner workings of KONFLIKT.

This is Christina Marie reporting....

 

The staff is loud and boisterous as they talk on the phones and hammer out emails. They are speaking with the who’s who of Tycoon land to create and deliver an amazing fight org experience for the top talent that Tycoon has to offer.

 

Everyone is interested to learn more regarding the bombshell that dropped yesterday where KONFLIKT acquired Bound for Glory and will be hosting the VIP and AVATAR Tournament.

 

At that moment, Mr. Farantini walks through the door with former BFG Co Owner, Big Larry. They shake hands and Big Larry walks into an adjacent office with an amazing full window view.

 

Mr. Farantini approaches smoking a large pipe. The smell is a pungent, yet sweet aroma. He shakes my hand and I ask him...

 

Christina Maria: What scent is that in your pipe?

Petro: Ah, good nose. That’s a little Durbin Poison. Just right to kick the morning off and ease into the afternoon. I always need to keep some sticky on the premises in case any of the Convicted crew roll up. Friend in need and such."

 

*He escorts me into his office and motions me to a chair. I take a seat and fire away.*

 

Christina Maria: “Mr. Farantini, thank you for taking the time and allowing me a peek at all the action. Why and how did you manage to pull off a deal to acquire another 330K ID org before any org has had a fight?”

 

Petro: “Ha ha ha! You just jump right in there, don’t you? First off, call me Petro. Well, it’s simple really. The org was in trouble and was probably going to fold. I stepped in and made Big Larry an offer he couldn’t refuse. We’re going to run the tourney at KONFLIKT and welcome all BFG fighters. Big Larry is coming over to be our VP of Marketing and Graphic Design. There’s no real way of acquiring another org. We’re confident many will see what is being built and join the rest of their BFG brothers now flying the KONFLIKT flag.”

 

Christina Maria: “Speaking of flying flags. There’s a great deal of org flags being raised for 330K ID fighters. How do you feel about the competition?”

 

*Petro leans back in his chair, bites down on his pipe, and cracks a smile.*

Petro: “Competition? We love competition. A worthy adversary is the greatest gift a person can have. I’m just not sure the competition is up to the task. Time will tell, it always does. I mean look, we’re barely 15 days into 330K and already one org has folded. Which one of these guys are next?”

 

Christina Maria: “Are you calling any of them out? I read something about things being said on a forum post. Does it regard that?”

 

Petro: “Ha! I don’t need to call anybody out. They know who and where I am. They’ve known this was coming since the day the KONFLIKT flag was planted. And they know there’s nothing they can do about it. Maybe they’ll prove worthy, a few show potential and can make it interesting. Again, only time will tell.”

 

Christina Maria: “You’ve shaken things up on the forums with your release of two 16 man tournaments and most recently the announcement of your SUPER 6 MEGA Million Tourney. What inspires you to create these events?”

 

Petro: “It’s a team effort. Our mission is to bring some of the old excitement back to the game. Crazy tournaments, huge prizes, big spotlights, lots of chatter. The stuff that makes this game great. Many people rallied behind me when I restarted this org and it showed me people want something like this. We can always find what’s fucked up with the game, but there’s also plenty that’s great and keeps us playing. We want to provide some of that greatness and impact others to do the same.”

 

*At that moment the intercom phone buzzes in:*

Secretary: “Petro, your chopper is fueled and awaiting your arrival at JFK.”

Petro: “Thanks, Mary. “

 

*Petro fixes his attention back to me.*

 

Petro:” Time for me to go. Relax and have some lunch, it’s catered from Peter Luger’s Steakhouse.”

 

Christina Maria: “Ha! Peter Luger’s doesn’t cater.”

Petro: “The owners, Amy and Marilyn are old friends of mine. It’s taken care of :D .”

Christina Maria: “So, what’s next for KONFLIKT FC and Mr. Farantini.”

 

Petro: “Just you wait and see.”
