Usernames

How did you decide on your CC username?

[muy_thaiguy]

At the time? I was in a martial arts class and one of my favorite styles was Muay Thai (yes, I know I spelled it wrong, so sue me). All there is to it really.

[Serbia]

I've already explained this in a similar thread. GO FIND IT.

Bollocks.

[notyou2]

Mind your own business.

EDIT: Please explain how you arrived at mrs in the first part of your name.

[Lootifer]

A poor decision back in WoW days that stuck.

Plain old Loot was already taken.

My old CB handle (remember those things?) was Tzor.

Back in 1986 I started playing a game called "Island of Kesmai" on "Compuserve." I needed a name but since the moderators were "Ghods" I decided no start off humble so I changed a letter.

I discovered that I had a four letter not censored word that was, for the most part unique. So I used it everywhere, and now it's even on my car.

By the way, my character on British Legends was "Tzorrro" with multiple r's because you had to spell out the opponent you were going to attack.

It is a traditional title for a female such as myself to use.

How did you decide on your CC username?

You have two options in order to get me to answer your question:

(1) Tell us how you decided on your CC username.
(2) Find the old thread that serbia references.

Just meant to keep it simple, less to type.
Sort of a logo... raptor, fighter plane or dump truck
or good egg.

Well then what was all that talk of an Eiffel Tower?!?!?!

[mrswdk]

We entered a girl from both ends then high fived over her. She didn't stay to cuddle afterwards.

[KoolBak]

Well I get the reference....but you being a lady and all.....how did you manage the....uh...."entry"??

[mrswdk]

With my penis

My response to notyou2 might have been made in jest.

[KoolBak]

Excellent! Congrats!!

WDK is just an acronym for my current 'hood.

[demonfork]

I registered the name "fqhed" with MTGO (Magic the Gathering Online) several years ago...

After playing on the site with this name for a few months I received an email from the WOTC (Wizards of the Coast) admin. explaining that I needed to change my name due to its offensive nature.

I argued back and forth with them for a few days always maintaining that there was nothing offensive about my username.

I tried to claim that my name was an acronym for "Frequency Quotient High Energy Discharge" or some such slavo.

They finally came back "We don't care what possible acronym that your name is comprised from, at the end of the day it sounds too much like "f*ck head" or some such bull.

They then told me to come up with 3 acceptable usernames and they would chose one of them as a replacement, otherwise I would get banned and lose all of my swag.

I emailed back with

demonknife
demonfork
demonspoon

They chose demonfork. Since that moment I have used demonfork exclusively at all of the gaming sites where I waste my time.

Don't ask me why I chose those 3 names to begin with, they really have no meaning to me at all, they were just the first names that popped into my gulliver.

[BigBallinStalin]

Shoulda went with demonspoon. You've missed out on a great opportunity. What will you do with yourself now?

Yes I do. MTG is one of the best games ever invented.

Any idea why there is a guy called demonknife on the site? I really thought it was a prank, i think it s really unrelated.

[tzor]

MTG killed D&D. (Well actually it killed TSR which would have killed D&D had not WOTC who owned MTG bought the rights to D&D and in turn got bought out by Barbie - Hasbro.)

I remember the early days when MTG players crowded the hallways of a gaming convention like plaque in the arteries.

I still have cards from those days.

[mrswdk]

I see people playing games like that in BJ from time to time. Usually they're in a cafe or McDonald's, taking up a couple of tables to themselves and buying nothing.
