Hello dear JetPunkers!
First, as always, I took my time to publish this interview for several reasons, the main one is that I was very busy, with end year celebrations and some important evaluations at school. I'm sorry, I do my best.
Today, an interview which was very asked by everyone (it's actually the second most asked after the Stewart one): the IAB interview...! I hope you will learn more about a JetPunker who I'm sure you like. Enjoy your reading!
baptistegorce: Hello IAB! Are you ready?
IAB: Hey Poirot! Sure!
baptistegorce: Ok, so let’s start this interview! First, could you present yourself on JetPunk quickly for our readers who don’t know you?
IAB: Hey! I am a 15-year-old from Brazil who spends way too much of my free time on this site.
baptistegorce: You are the first JetPunker interviewed in this blogs series who is a Portuguese native speaker. Do you think there are many differences between English and other languages on JetPunk? Should something about it be changed?
IAB: I personally don't think there are a lot of differences between English and other languages, other than English normally having 5 quizzes on the front page a day and other languages normally having one, which I'm fine with.
baptistegorce: What do you think about the JetPunk Portuguese section in particular (recent quizzes, active quizmakers,…)?
IAB: It's... fine I guess? Like I said there isn't much of a difference from language to language.
baptistegorce: You got a very important task on JetPunk: translate all the Country Quiz in Portuguese. Was it difficult?
IAB: Yes it was kinda difficult, some questions just didn't work in Portuguese so I had to make up new questions, which was hard.
baptistegorce: Now it’s end, do you have something to say about these 198 quizzes (success, original creators, interest, new quizzes everyday like that in the Future?)?
IAB: Aaron197 and alberici did a very good job on making most of the country quizzes, I know how hard it is to come up with questions.
baptistegorce: Do you have big projects of quizzes in preparation?
IAB: I got a few projects. Following questions 4 and 5 I am currently making a series on Brazilian state quizzes, they were supposed to be on the front page along with the US state quizzes in the English language section, but as I said before, making questions is hard. I'm also doing an All 50k+ Cities in the World series but I'm currently in a break for that series.
baptistegorce: What is the most important event in your own life of JetPunker?
IAB: 2019-01-09, I won't explain what happened that day but if you know what I'm saying, you know what I'm saying.
baptistegorce: If you had to choose just three JetPunker for their quizzes, who will it be?
IAB: Well... Stewart, Jiaozira, and Gassu would definitely be my choices.
baptistegorce: And for their blogs?
IAB: I rarely read blogs so I can't say anything about it.
baptistegorce: What are your passions in life, except JetPunk?
IAB: I mostly just play Tetris in my free time, and sometimes I make maps. Yeah... there's nothing much you can do when you're currently in lockdown.
baptistegorce: You recently gained a new featured quiz because of nominations. What does it mean for you? Do you like this system?
IAB: Nominations are fine I guess, I mean I really can't complain when 13 of my 19 English features were featured because of nominations.
baptistegorce: Thanks for all your answers, IAB!
IAB: You're welcome!
I hope you liked this interview. I don't know when will be the next interview, but I have ideas for the two next interviewed (so it means the next Who is this Jetunker? will be after, for the 11th interview...).
Have a nice day and a happy quizmaking or blogging!
In a very long time, if I'm alive yet...
Or if you win a WITJ.

You are the main Brazilian and Portuguese representative on JetPunk. And as a countryman, I am very grateful for your work. You show all Brazilians that genius can arise anywhere, from where you least expect it. In this case, this genius, who is you, was not expected to emerge from Sertão Nordestino.
You show the claw that the Northeast represents in Brazil and in the world. I would never imagine a user as important as you, being from Brazil. You inspire me, and make SVG's like no one else. It shows that Brazil is not that crap we imagine.
You deserve this interview, always knew that you would be interviewed, and seeing your vision, I marvel at your simplicity.
You inspire many here besides me, and don't give up on your more than exceptional work. Put Brazil on the JetPunk map definitely, and show that the Northeast is incredibly incredible.
Keep showing that it is no longer the IAmBad, but the IAB.

Once again, incredible interview Poirot! Hope I will be enough to enter an interview!
And I'll send it to IAB.
Do know his email?
#ThanksIAB!
No, more seriously, I had to make this interview, and it's was funny to do. Thanks IAB!
And, you talked to @IAB? I want that he look my message.
But thank.
I'm a dictator, I do what I want.
