What inspired your Username?

[Guest The Architect]

Before you ask, no I'm not a builder or anything like that.

 

When I used to play soccer (I don't now because of a rare medical condition ) I was the Architect behind our set plays. I was always involved in most of my teams goals and was pretty much the best player on my team. :D

[medevac99]

Medevac = Name of our old band

 

99 = The Great One

[Benjamin Korr]

I made my name as part of a role playing community which I have since left. However, the character was rather special to me, and so I continue to use the name Benjamin Korr, or Captain Korr, in a lot of forums and games.

[Dyan]

My username? A bad play on the word "dying" with an apostrophe and spoken in a bad accent. "I'm dyin'" -> I'm Dyan". Not something special. Quite tacky actually.

[Calax]

because I made it up for Perfect dark so that I wouldn't keep running through psudonyms from books like wildfire.

[Laozi]

When I was in China and Indonesia everywhere I went people would yell this at me and stick their babies in my face. For the longest time I thought they were saying "Lousy, Lousy" and trying to ward me off with dirty diapers. Slowly I began to realize that it was pretty much the same there as it is in America, to the people I appeared to be a living god. I've used the name ever since to remind myself how carried away people can get when you're as beautiful as I am, and also to remember all the illegitamate children I've left behind.

[CSI: Nihilus]

I love CSI TV show, and I like Darth Nihilus, and what if I can use lightsided Nihilus as my CSI: Coruscant?

 

For Poster above:

 

Laozi is an ancient Chinese scholar. His real name is Li'Er, who had wrote a book, "Tao-Te Hsing" (Hope I spelled it correctly!) which is talking about how people restraint themselves with strong moral bonds. It's very hard to understand even to a Chinese, like me.

[Wistrik]

My name is taken from an evil necromancer boss in an old 1980s game I played on a Commodore 64: Realm of Impossibility

 

Ah, the good old days.

[mr insomniac]

^ I remember that game!

 

inspired by one of the first people i got to know over on Iplay's PS:T boards. she always hung around the forums at work, and because it was morning there, late night/early morning here, she thought i didn't get enough sleep.

[Draken]

Lol, Draken Fett. I thought it sounded kinda cool.

[Oerwinde]

In the old AD&D Birthright Campaign Setting they had a list of common names for the various ethnicities. Mine came from the Brecht list.

[Gorgon]

I don't remember.

[Darque]

I don't remember either.

[Diego Varen]

I don't remember either.

It might be because you joined so long ago.

[Diamond]

A random dictionary word that sounded nice to me.

[Kroney]

Can of French lager.

[metadigital]

Because I am.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I honestly never realized that's what it was.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

That's because you aren't. ^_^

[LadyCrimson]

My usual nick at the time was taken here. So...

 

...Crimson - randomly picked color name, no meaning...and the blue color names were taken...

...Lady - used to try to ensure a name wouldn't be taken. And if you're wondering, I'm not really very Lady-like in RL - but LadyCrimson has a better ring than WomanCrimson or CrimsonWoman or something. ^_^

 

Now it's my main nick everywhere. Strange how that works sometimes.

[Deraldin]

Hey, my posting has declined in the past few days.

[Blarghagh]

It goes back to me playing Baldur's Gate as a a druid, which only allowed True Neutral as an alignment. I needed a screenname, and at the time I always tried to keep out of arguements so it seemed to fit me.

 

These days I'm much more assertive, but I keep it around out of nostalgia... and maybe because I enjoy the hypocrisy of it.
