Meet The Affiliate
scandinaviangaming

With a username like "scandinaviangaming," it may be a bit of a surprise to learn that Max, this week's affiliate interviewee, is actually from Uruguay and is an expert in the Latin American online gaming market. Max says that affiliates looking to break into that market should know that players love to socialize, "even in the online world." Oh, and if you meet Max later on at a conference, make sure to buy him a drink and stay on his good side; he spends his spare time training in mixed martial arts, submission wrestling and Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
