Greetings fellow T9Kers and welcome to another installment of "Get to Know a Gamer!" This week was a close one, but Donvittorio was chosen to be put under the spotlight! Donvittorio is out resident musician who creates some rather impressive mixes. He was ashamed to admit it, but he gets most of his inspiration from your mother. All of your mothers. He's also known for his rather wicked 'do which he spends hours a year grooming to be the wonderful crop of hair you see on a regular basis. Without further introduction, here's Don's interview:
1. Where did you come up with your username? As an 8 year old, I loved to play browser games. A friend of mine told me of this browser game about crime, gangsters and the mafia. Me, being a roleplaying kind of person, decided to go with a name that sounded mafia-like. Don Vittorio DiMaggio was the first thing that came to mind, even though I had no clue of it's origins back then. Due to the character limit I had to stick to DonVittorio. After 2 seconds of research I found out that Don Vittorio DiMaggio is actually a character from "The Simpsons", only appearing once in the series in the episode "Homie the clown".
2. Your known in Team9000 for your music mixes. Where do you get your inspirations from for your music? I could answer this question in a witty fashion, but I just want to tell everyone who is ever interested in making music or anything else related to art: Listen to things in other genres than what you want to make. You've no clue how much it progresses your musical knowledge and you'll be pimpin' in no time.
3. Afro. Have you thought about growing one? No, my favorite hairstyle would be the mullet, because it's from the 80's and the 80's were badass as pineapples.
(The guy in the picture is Nik Kershaw, who produced one of my favorite songs evar, "The Riddle")
4. What is your biggest gaming disappointment? Might get some hate for this, but any Call of Duty game after Modern Warfare 2. I can hear a lot of people say: "Call of Duty can suck the juice out of a coconut", but about 2 years ago playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 was the way to spend my days. I did gamebattles and competitions and whatnot, and was actually quite decent. I was so excited for Call of Duty: Black Ops, and well, it could've been a lot better. I probably have some dissapointing games on Ps2, but I can't recall any of them at the moment.
5. Which is your favorite ocean and why? The Pacific is a pretty cool guy, it kills aliens and isn't afraid of anything.
6. Your profile says you're from your closet. What is your favorite place to visit in your closet? The corner where fdebijl is creeping on Cathykiddo.
7. What are your five favorite movies?
1) Back to the future
2) Back to the future 2
3) Snatch
4) Ferris Bueller's day off
5) Groundhog day
8. Which super power would rather have and why: the ability to speak to sea life, or the ability to shrink to near-microscopic size? The ability to shrink, because ants are just pure bro's.
9. What are your five favorite video games?
1) Kingdom Hearts series
2) Jak and Daxter
3) Star wars Battlefront 2
4) War of the monsters
5) The elder scrolls IV: Oblivion
10. What brought you to Team9000? Cathykiddo, scooterboo and I used to play on this other pixel art server called Pixel Art FREEBUILD. When it suddenly died, I was seperated from the siblings and the other members of PAF. A few months afterwards, me and an old admin from the server whom I still had contact with decided to revive the server and call it similair to PAF. Because Cathy and Scooter were feeling nostalgic and wanted to see the server again, they searched for it and bumped onto our server which name was oddly familiar to them. I saw them on the server a few hours afterwards and because im3nuron and Cathy wanted to hear my sensual voice, they invited me to mumble.
And now I'm addicted.
Thanks.
11. What are your other hobbies? Other than producing, nothing, I'm quite the one trick pony. I am working on a Let's Play and a podcast at the moment in the hope that I could improve my video editing and conversational/debating skills.
12. If you could be any dessert, what would you be and why? Anything but lemon pie, because I would hate to devour myself.

And there you have it! Hopefully everyone learned a little bit more than they really needed to about Don and will be thoroughly creeped out whenever talking to him from now on. If there is anyone else you would like to get awkwardly acquainted with, post your suggestion down below! Any other comments would also be much appreciated, as well.
