McCrank Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 McCrank just sounded like a funny name to me a couple years ago. My avatar... Im just a big chipmunk fan, and I found this pic on some personal website.
Calliope Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 Origin of name: Mr. Teatime is from a Terry Pratchett book (comic fantasy), he was a mad assassin who devised plans to kill mythical figures such as Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, and Death. I thought the name, and the background, was pretty interesting and wierd. Ha, I did wonder if that's where it came from :D Mine's from mythology, Calliope's a muse. My avatar..uh, one of many avatars I cycle between, picked this one because it was already square so it'd look better at 64x64. It's of a mutant nurse from Soultaker Mistress' Lair Boldly Go!
Sammael Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 Mine's from mythology, Calliope's a muse. Sorry, but your username is Pirotess. None of this silly Calliope business. There are no doors in Jefferson that are "special game locked" doors. There are no characters in that game that you can kill that will result in the game ending prematurely.
Sammael Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 The buckethead episode was probably the most amusing one on the old BIS boards. And I still don't know what exploit you and LD used. There are no doors in Jefferson that are "special game locked" doors. There are no characters in that game that you can kill that will result in the game ending prematurely.
Fionavar Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 Your sig is to long. To damn long and green. My sig is from twin peaks B) Green is so nice though ... Aw, I liked your signature. It was a good colour and a good length. Change it back? Well it is still green ... but more of a hunter as opposed to the neon ... but thanks :D The universe is change; your life is what our thoughts make it - Marcus Aurelius (161)
Synaesthesia Posted February 15, 2004 Posted February 15, 2004 I'm really a female ghoul. Yup, that's me.
Enoch Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 My nick goes way back to my Freshman year of college. When we first moved in, the RAs had signs on all the door with our names. Months later, when we figured that just about anyone who we'd want to see would know our names already, my roommate hung a sign on our door that read "Garth and Enoch" (not even close to our real names). He offered me first choice and I decided to be Enoch. Later, I used it as a character name when I played BG1. The avatar is part of a series of photos of jazz musicians I've been using. The current cover-boy is Sun Ra.

NInjaPirate Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 I got mine from the awesome cartoon, Weebl and sometimes his friend Bob, cause Chris the Ninja Pirate in pimp.
Enoch Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 I'm dissappointed, I thought you were named after the man who later became the Metatron, in apocryphal lore. I don't know the Apocrypha very well (and by that I mean I know nothing beyond the fact that some books exist that various councils left out of the canon), but there were a couple of OT Enochs, the first being the son of Cain (Genesis 4:17). That's about as deep as I go, theologically. I strongly prefer the more reason-based morality systems.
Shadowstrider Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 That's about as deep as I go, theologically. I strongly prefer the more reason-based morality systems. Well, I'm secular(not for discussion in this thread, please), but I've read a lot more into religions then I should have, probably.
roguefrog Posted February 18, 2004 Posted February 18, 2004 The Name: I use to be a console gamer and thus I played console RPGs, Japanese in origin. There was a game called Chrono Trigger which showcased a character named Frog. A knights lacky turned amphibian by a dark magician on a quest for vengeance for the death of that same knight by that same dark magician. Anyway a long story short, by 95' I was getting into PC gaming with RTS games like C&C, and when Baldur's Gate came out I took a prolonged hiatus from consoles. Suffice to say I never really went back. A rogue in a way, and since I originally used Frog as my alias, I changed it to roguefrog. The Avatar: I drew up a pic of Frog with a hood, gave it some ink, lighting, and a lens flare, and there you see it now.
Dragon Lord Jones Posted February 18, 2004 Posted February 18, 2004 Name comes from my love for dragons ... I have a huge collection from figurines to artwork. Jones comes from two sources first it's my last name ... second you could say I have a jones for dragons hehehe.... My avatar is a modified Justin Sweet work from LOTR with different background and sword from other pics.
EnderAndrew Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 Ender Wiggin is the name of a character in Orson Scott Card's excellent novel, Ender's Game. I usually use EnderAndrew on boards. I switch avatars all the time. Not as much on this board because of the size limitations. This avatar is a cross-reference to Homestar Runner and Sluggy Freelance.
Alexia Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 My screen name well I decided to use my real name My avatar speaks for itself Le donne sono da venus, la scopata sa dove sono gli uomini da. For a different kind of Kotor chat
Atreides Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 My avatar's Dream of the Endless. Spreading beauty with my katana.
OLD SKOOL WHEELMAN Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 Cool. Confident. Precise. I am the Wingman. I am the Wheelman. I am the Driver.
tripleRRR Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 My initials. No avatar because I can never find one I truly like. TripleRRR Using a gamepad to control an FPS is like trying to fight evil through maple syrup.
Gromnir Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 we made up name... wanted something that sounded "barbaric." can decide for self whether we succeeded. by the time most o' you read this, we probably will have changed avatars. currently, we use the fourth rune in the first aett of the elder futhark: ansuz. HA! Good Fun! "If there be time to expose through discussion the falsehood and fallacies, to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence."Justice Louis Brandeis, Concurring, Whitney v. California, 274 U.S. 357 (1927) "Im indifferent to almost any murder as long as it doesn't affect me or mine."--Gfted1 (September 30, 2019)
sickboycp Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 My favorite character from Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting and its fine sequel Porno. Mr. Simon David Williamson. I added the cp 'cuz the college I was at when I first read 'Trainspotting' had the initials YCP. I couldn't find any good pics of Jonny Lee Miller as Sick Boy so I had to use Ewan MacGregor emerging from 'the worst toilet in Scotland' as my avatar. Heh...probably says something about me that my favorite literary character is a Scottish heroin and cocaine addict and petty criminal.
Opus131 Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 You can check the origin on of my name and avatar in my sig... The Opus131 is the greatest peice of music ever written in any age and any style... B) Opus131
Raven Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 got my name from a comic that i used to draw and my avatar/sig is of the almighty chairman of the gourmet academy Takeshi Kaga
Weiser_Cain Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 Name's my pen name, don't remember what it meant when I came up with it, most likely nothing, though now that I look at it you could read it as wiser Cain, which would make me a murderer smart enough not to be caught by god(so say the voices in my head). Avatar is the super quick drawing I did for Juhani that lead me to model her a new sleek turkey body. I'll probably change it to Juhani in 3D once I get around to doing it. Yaw devs, Yaw!!! (
