| #1midnitepoisonMar 11, 2009 19:38:43 | ok, now that first names are out of the way, screennames! why do you have the screenname you do? midnight poison: a dior perfume that smells ok, but has an awesome name, so I picked it! also. Im kind of a night owl, and people say I have a poisonous personality. |
| #2pigknightMar 11, 2009 19:39:23 | Pigknight: I like pigs and knights.... |
| #3baneofelvesMar 11, 2009 19:41:25 | alright, I'll give this a shot. Bane: I am the bane of many things, such as my sanity, credibility, the sanity of those around me, and sometimes my existence. of: I needed a placeholder Elves: It was the perfect thing to be the Bane of. Those damn dirty tolkienesque bastards! |
| #4doomsoughtMar 11, 2009 19:42:21 | I was thinking about how dreadnought was such a cool word and digression occurred. |
| #5Ragnar_LodbrokMar 11, 2009 19:45:20 | Ragnar Lodbrok: Semimythical Viking king and hero, "Scourge of France", and subject of a Saga. |
| #6hubris1989_dupMar 11, 2009 19:46:38 | Pig's puppet acount: One time thing with Ariticles2. |
| #7minja_dupMar 11, 2009 19:48:40 | It is a play on my real first name and my favorite Disney princess. :D |
| #8midnitepoisonMar 11, 2009 19:49:16 | jasmine? |
| #9pigknightMar 11, 2009 19:51:21 | Jasminja! |
| #10minja_dupMar 11, 2009 19:52:14 | jasmine? Yup. :D Have a cookie ![]() My daddy gave it to me when I was a little kid. |
| #11pigknightMar 11, 2009 19:58:41 | Hey midnite why don't you like caps? |
| #12stealthmarmotMar 11, 2009 20:01:16 | Mine is actually a World of Warcraft joke oddly enough. I played Alliance but my bro played Horde (which made our house a civil war style battleground). Well one time my bro decides to tell me about a quest for the horde involving controlling animals. One of the animals was a marmot, and one of the abilities the marmot had was being able to stealth. Hence: StealthMarmot. The name popped out at me and I just HAD to use it. I switched screen names after having another one for years. The old one was not really appropriate for all the fantasy and medieval style games I loved to play. (Used to use it as my name for this very board. Still no one has guessed my old name...) |
| #13DralenanMar 11, 2009 20:44:12 | Dralenan was my Diablo II character (a necromancer). I spent so much time with the game and the character that I worked him into my D&D campaign I was running as an arch villian. Most of my screen names are taken from my old D&D characters... |
| #14doneisiMar 11, 2009 21:17:52 | done: done is: is i: I Came up with it in fifth grade when rushing for a user name and use it along with doneasy. I think I R Baboon ruined my mind. |
| #15pigknightMar 11, 2009 21:19:16 | It makes sense now. |
| #16crossroads_wandererMar 11, 2009 21:37:24 | I just wanted a cool name when I was signing up. My Candlekeep username (ranger_of_the_unicorn_run) didn't fit, and I always liked the fey, so I picked Crossroads_Wanderer based on fey crossroads and backroads. |
| #17IdolisMar 11, 2009 21:48:19 | Idolis is a name I think is cool. In my writing Idolis morphs into whatever character I want him to be. Saves me time trying to think up new names for every character I want to write about. |
| #18Mad_JackMar 11, 2009 21:52:09 | Mad Jack is actually my real name. Mad is short for Madelyn. What, you never heard of a guy named Madelyn???? Okay, I lied. Mad Jack was one of my first D&D characters years ago, recreated in almost every gaming system I've played, and also sort of my "alter ego", almost a split personality even - the evil little guy in the back of my head who keeps saying, "I wonder what would happen if I pushed this button..." :D I've often used Jack as a real-life nickname/alias as well - Jack is, of course, short (despite having the same number of letters, lol) for John. My first name is Sean, which is Gaelic for John, and my Catholic Confirmation name is also John, after my uncle/godfather. Not to mention, I've just always liked the name. Also, as pointed out by a very bright little girl I once met... If you say Mad Jack as one word (MadJack) seven times, on the seventh time you'll always end up saying "magick" instead... :D |
| #19csotnalucardMar 11, 2009 22:25:50 | my name is a reference to one of my favorite games. Haven't figured it out yet? Here I'll write it out for you csotnalucard castlevania symphony of the night alucard a.k.a the name of the main character of that game |
| #20jackpot_jamesMar 11, 2009 22:38:55 | The first time I met one of my friends, he was under the impression that my name was James. It wasn't until a couple of gaming sessions later that I decided to tell him that James wasn't my real name (Although, I do have to admit that I did like the name, much more than my real name). Ever since then James has been a nickname for me. What's up with Jackpot then? Nothing really special my character just won a couple of times playing the D&D equivalent of Texas Hold'em. At the end of the (in-game) day, I won the tournament prize money. |
| #21krownhunter07Mar 11, 2009 22:49:56 | Krownhunter07 Crown hunter is the english version of my last name (Kronjaeger) 7 is my lucky number. Errr, first name is Richard, BTW, but I go by Rick. |
| #22boj0Mar 11, 2009 22:55:03 | Bojo = childhood nickname I used the zero well before I posted here, on things like my gamertag, Pokemon avatars, and the such. It's better than my GameFAQS handle... ![]() |
| #23dirtyfrankMar 11, 2009 23:03:49 | My username is a nickname I picked up in high school. Lets just say I kind of went from a nobody to a somebody because of it. ;) Has pigknight been rubbing off on midnitepoison because she has been popping out threads as often as he squirts them out? |
| #24pigknightMar 11, 2009 23:05:48 | O I C WUT U DID THAR. |
| #25boj0Mar 11, 2009 23:08:06 | lol Pigknight <3 midnitepoison :3 |
| #26baneofelvesMar 11, 2009 23:11:23 | lol GET IT RIGHT YOU BUTTCAKE! ![]() |
| #27dirtyfrankMar 11, 2009 23:12:25 | O I C WUT U DID THAR. Well, have you been teaching her in your art of posting? |
| #28boj0Mar 11, 2009 23:19:04 | GET IT RIGHT YOU BUTTCAKE! I will reach through the internet to smack you |
| #29pigknightMar 11, 2009 23:19:35 | Post-fu is a secret pork monk art untought to outsiders. |
| #30boj0Mar 11, 2009 23:22:06 | Also, baneofelves cannot have the feeling of "love" for he is a savage, beast; more primal and wild than actually evil, misunderstood and frightened, he lashes out at all things in confusion and anger. |
| #31crossroads_wandererMar 12, 2009 0:12:59 | Has pigknight been rubbing off on midnitepoison because she has been popping out threads as often as he squirts them out? I was actually considering starting a thread asking how people chose their avatars, but it looks like midnitepoison is headed in that direction, so I'll let her start it. ![]() |
| #32dirtyfrankMar 12, 2009 0:15:02 | I was actually considering starting a thread asking how people chose their avatars, but it looks like midnitepoison is headed in that direction, so I'll let her start it. Ya, we should let the woman do all the work. ![]() |
| #33crossroads_wandererMar 12, 2009 0:17:02 | I'm a woman! But it was more like everyone would probably think I was stealing ideas from midnite if I started it. ![]() |
| #34dirtyfrankMar 12, 2009 0:18:12 | You're not a woman. you're a dwarven woman. Big difference. |
| #35pigknightMar 12, 2009 0:18:12 | I made it. Midnite be stealin' my turf yo'. |
| #36RUMPLESTIXMar 12, 2009 0:22:05 | Rumplestix: I had an old account under the name Tyberian but I didn't use it for it seems like two years. When I decided to start looking at the wizards forums again everything looked different. The sign-in was different. The forum arrangements were different and the dition stuff was different. It was like I had been asleep and just woke up so I made my new user-name a variation of Rumplestiltskin. |
| #37crossroads_wandererMar 12, 2009 0:24:14 | You're not a woman. you're a dwarven woman. Big difference. Dwarven woman, elven at heart. ;) |
| #38KillerGMMar 12, 2009 0:27:04 | I'm a killer GM. Well, not really. I played with a GM who would kill us every week, and not in fun ways. We used to start joking about her being a "Killer GM!!" whenever she started rolling initiative. It migrated to my games, with the players shouting "Killer GM!" whenever I damaged them at all. My games were/are pretty deadly for stupid players, but otherwise fair. I strive for consistency in all things. ;) |
| #39awesome_dudeMar 12, 2009 5:06:02 | My screen name is designed to be either hilariously ironic or entirely fitting. I'm always either really awesome or completely miss the mark in my efforts. Mediocrity is not my style. |
| #40rakeMar 12, 2009 8:16:21 | lol @ buttcake *high fives bane* Anyway, when I first discovered teh intarwebs, I held a summer job as a gardener. 'Rake' had a triple meaning for me, being the tool of my trade, the weapon of my choice, and also a term that means 'lecherous rogue'. Though I'm not sure I live up to the latter. |
| #41rakeMar 12, 2009 8:18:25 | Has pigknight been rubbing off on midnitepoison because she has been popping out threads as often as he squirts them out? I'll just leave this here. |
| #42zombie_babiesMar 12, 2009 9:20:55 | My name is Fred and I was turned into a Zombie two days after my birth. |
| #43cherubaddonMar 12, 2009 9:37:28 | Cherubaddon was the name of my very first Inquisitor character. Since Inquisitors are always morally dubious, I wanted a name that reflected him as being somehow half-evil. Since Abaddon already stood as pretty much absolute evil both in-game and in RL, combining it with Cherub (angel) seemed like the perfect fit. The Inquisitor himself, by the way, has gotten so powerful that he is now retired. Although I miss the old days... |
| #44Dark_StrykeMar 12, 2009 18:29:57 | I have no Idea what made me use this name. I can tell you why I used "Stryke" instead of the more sensible "Strike". I thought the name "Dark Strike" looked really boring, and the 'y' made it look cooler. Of course, half the time people read it as "Stryker" for whatever reason. |
| #45ciaranMar 12, 2009 19:49:21 | Its my name, or part of it anyhow. I have 5 names, plus the last name.- |
| #46stealthmarmotMar 14, 2009 0:13:54 | My screen name is designed to be either hilariously ironic or entirely fitting. I'm always either really awesome or completely miss the mark in my efforts. Mediocrity is not my style. Epic win or epic fail, nowhere inbetween? |
| #47Reg06Mar 14, 2009 0:29:52 | I was born in 1989. When I was young the Internet killed both my parents under the pseudonym Reg06. I have since dedicated my life to killing the Internet where ever I find it and I've taken this moniker to remind the Internet that I have not forgotten. I hope to one day reach the end of the Internet and destroy it once and for all. |
| #48plemmonsMar 14, 2009 1:01:07 | I used to have a different screen name - I first registered here as Snommelp, which is just my last name backwards. Then I went away for a while and forgot my password, so I came back as Plemmons, which is in fact my last name. Yup. Terribly original, I am. |
| #49crofterMar 14, 2009 13:41:41 | Mine is an ancient nickname I'm very fond of. I got it when one of my friends found my real name (Lauri) and that of Lara Croft's faintly alike: "Henceforth, you will be known as... Crofter." And for clarity, Lauri is a male name (equivalent of Lawrence, or Larry). |
| #50baneofelvesMar 14, 2009 17:15:36 | M-HMM. Right. Sure thing Laura. |
| #51jhonesyMar 14, 2009 17:21:33 | Well my middle name is Jones, so growing up most people called me "Jonesy" as a cute little nickname, so I stuck with it. As I got older and into D&D, well I wanted to name my Human Bard after myself, so I called him "Jhones", dropping the "y" for silliness of course. Well, after that I just started adding the "h" and "y" on since almost any online website you can think of has "Jones" as a screen name already taken, but never "Jhonesy". So, voila! The epic mystery that nobody really bothered to care with much in the beginning anyway is solved! ![]() |
| #52baneofelvesMar 14, 2009 17:22:51 | OK Joan. Sure thing. |
| #53jhonesyMar 14, 2009 17:26:22 | Yeah, yeah. And I'm so sure that your name is full of epicness as well. 'Course, that would require me to read this entire thing in the assumption that you would even explain your completely obvious choice of screen name. ![]() |
| #54baneofelvesMar 14, 2009 17:30:07 | my nickname is Bane, and I hate elves. There. No long winded explanation. |
| #55demiteddybearMar 14, 2009 18:02:28 | Well because normally I would use my alias Lord BoB. which I came up with on a trip to france, I brought a small gargoyle, we pretended that he was guardian of our hotel room, and since powerful daemons are always called lord something, I thought what is the least intimidating name I could think of...BoB, so whenever I went to play laserquest or half-life I always saw people using names like predator or something to try and sound tough and decided to use that and then it stuck and it became my alias. Ofcourse for some reason couldn't use that one on here, so I used a combination of digimon name (demidevimon - my favourite when I used to watch) and my age old teddy bear. :D |
| #56crimson_lancerMar 14, 2009 20:42:54 | Nickname that turned into a full-blown title after many witnessed my M:tG playing style (super-offensive ). I use to use different names online, but after realizing that I tend to take that super-offensive stance online anyway (mostly because all the dumb-asses tend to populate the web, or are using the anonymity to act like dumb-asses), I just started using my title again. :D |
| #57bob_loblawMar 14, 2009 20:55:18 | I was watching a commercial for a TV show that I didn't like and they threw out the name of a lawyer named Bob Loblaw. Since my name is Bob I thought it would be funny. I used to go by blzbob, which is also funny to me, but I really like this one better. I also tend to ramble so it fits. |
| #58malek2991Mar 14, 2009 21:09:35 | Malek was a random name from an old D&D 2nd edition character generator, but it was only a short game. I then used it as my Ultima Online character, and its been my screen name ever since. The numbers are simply random. |
| #59crossroads_wandererMar 14, 2009 23:16:44 | my nickname is Bane, and I hate elves. There. No long winded explanation. Hey, your nickname is Bane and mine is Batman (and sometimes the more gender appropriate Batwoman). We're enemies! |
| #60IdolisMar 15, 2009 0:03:51 | I'm wondering if all these questions about our names might be some secret profiler way of finding out where we live, what kind of job we have, and who we may or may not be screwing at any point in time. |
| #61dirtyfrankMar 15, 2009 0:32:54 | I'm wondering if all these questions about our names might be some secret profiler way of finding out where we live, what kind of job we have, and who we may or may not be screwing at any point in time. She may just want to know some things from a poster or two but rather than asking that person directly you make a friendly thread about the question. This way the person responds and so do many others. They don't know that they are specifically being probed for information. |
| #62pigknightMar 15, 2009 0:42:50 | I think shes doing it so she'll have some hot threads under her belt. :P |
| #63Mad_JackMar 15, 2009 2:34:09 | I'm wondering if all these questions about our names might be some secret profiler way of finding out where we live, what kind of job we have, and who we may or may not be screwing at any point in time. If somebody finds out who I may be screwing at some point in time, I hope the hell they let me know... |
| #64jhonesyMar 15, 2009 6:13:24 | Sounds like a twisted conspiracy of epic proportions, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Cookie for anyone who gets this movie reference. ((:cookie ) |
| #65crofterMar 15, 2009 8:05:21 | M-HMM. Right. Sure thing Laura. You are free to believe what you want. I can't force you to accept the truth*. *Owning intercontinental missiles is illegal here. |
| #66doneisiMar 15, 2009 9:12:39 | I would have rather used HATED than HATER. You have the funniest username ever, because whenever I see it I am reminded of that parody song Dave Chappel (sp?) did. |
