FM members
FM (Flowertouching Men), my team, was founded in the end of 1999. In total there have been 12 players. The first players were selected according to playing skills and having the WCup2000 in view. There were members from Finland, Sweden and Norway. So originally FM was just a super team consisting people over country borders.
Nowadays FM is known as a very stable team formed by good friends (even in real life). All of them are veterans and the top enthusiasm is gone. Still the greybeards achieve WRs, get good positions in different kind of contests and live the Elma.
Here’s a little overview of each member in FM. More I know about the people who are in FM now. Less I know of those Swedish and Norwegian guys who quitted many years ago. In brackets the number indicates the order when the certain player has joined FM. Current members are italic.

Willing to join FM? It’s not the easiest thing. You have to be a Finn, a good player, own good Elma attitude (not going to quit, life style, keen to meet other members) and our friend. Currently only one guy fulfills the criteria who isn’t in the FM. I don’t reveal the name but it shouldn’t be difficult to figure out.
Jokke, who has been active from the very beginning of Across (1997) and is one of the greatest players in the history, has been getting more and more inactive in last months. He hardly played World Cup 5 and a while ago he announced that he will quit for quite sure. He’s only waiting for Elma2 to see if it’s any interesting and after that he’ll quit Elma and FM. Sob sob.
Tisk has been in non-military service for a year now. A few weeks till and he should be active again. I hope he will bring some new fresh athmosphere to our team. Karlis is not in Elma mood, also mr is just cruising and dating. dz is living with his girl and taking care of their hedgehog. Tisk’s also having a girl friend. Soon FM will be just a club of boring house-husbands.
I would like to see some competition in total times between Karlis, mr and dz. They are very near to each others. Other than that I’m not expecting anything from those guys.
Tisk is moving to Helsinki in a few weeks. Then 67% of the FM lives there: Karlis, dz, Jokke and Tisk. I hope Tisk will host me sometimes so I could come to meet my team friends. mr is living in Joensuu and me in Oulu. I might move to south (Helsinki is in south and Oulu north) after I get graduated. mr also has tried to get his girl to accept moving to Oulu which would be great.
Yet, we have a home page. Not updated too regularly though. We have ideas how to improve it and so on but unfortunately it’s not high priority. “Maybe one day…”
