Finn Berger

Finn Berger's foremost achievement is having stayed alive for 53 years. This is a feat he usually tries to capitalize on at every possible occasion. Apart from that, he's actually Norway's #1 Mario Kart 64 non-sc player - by a rather narrow margin, though, being ranked #32 on the NSC list, just a few places ahead of Marius Hukkelaas.

Finn also played MKDD for a couple of months just after the release of the game, thinking his MK64 background would make it easy for him to succeed at the new game. It didn't, and he soon returned to his home base at MK64, where he until recently has been climbing steadily and extremely slowly in rank, almost reaching Legend A, and earning the title of of Turtle of the Year for 2004. He certainly deserves it for 2005, too.

His career has, however, ground to a halt because of the double effect of (almost?) maxing out and finding true love at the same time. That career started in 1999, when he caught the bug after having bought the game for his son, and he joined the site in the spring of 2003. Since then he's also been a very ardent poster on the boards, offering comments and advice on every topic that pops up, regardless of whether he knows anything about it or not.

Finn earns his living as a teacher, which sometimes becomes very obvious from his posts. Give him the opportunity, and he launches a lecture. (It may sometimes pay to listen to it, though!)
