How did you choose your online gaming name?

[FBG]

FlibberMeister was an adaption of FBG which stood for Flubber Blubber Gibber. That came from playing cs after a night of drinking champagne, wine, guiness and stellar and i thought it was about time i created a nick name.

I basically tidied up the onsewing jumble of letters as i attempted to type something in. I wasn't particularly coherant. (i couldn't double click the CS short cut either).

[mono_dna]

My first nick in the tracker days, as Delan mentioned, was Tantalos. As I remember it, some kind of myth character that I thought suited my situation as a sad and lonely teenager well.
Then I got tired of it and changed it to mono. Not very imaginative, but then I added  _DNA - which is the danish word 'AND' spelled backwards. 'And' means duck (the one that says 'quack') and derives from our bands name 'TROLDAnd/2' ... :huh: :blink:  

In relation to BF2 and my misfortunes there, the other meaning of the word 'duck' is even more relevant, if not very effectively applied by me, as my kill/death ratio reveals...  :blush:

[Wordan]

I ment to spell Warden, but I couldn't spell back in those day. (still can't ) because of the misspelling (and daft name)  it's pretty original and have never had any problems registering it anywhere. So it stuck. Unless I registerd before and forgot my password  I guess I liked the idea of sounding like I was in charge Had it for about 5 years I think

[A Twig]

I used A Twig after I started playing Delta Force. In the top right of the screen it used to say "Player X was killed by Player Y". I thought it was quite amusing to see "Player X was killed by A Twig." Used it ever since.

I did a survey on this about 2 years ago. the average age then was about 34. Of course everyone is older now and new people have joined so it might be time to do it again.

Alternatively, we could keep a running total and show it on the homepage if we used PHP to work out average age from people's birthday entries (assuming they have entered anything in their forum profile). Don't know how tricky it would be for OB to interrogate the forum database.

[DarkAngel]

Used to be called DeathWarrant > after the film
DarkAngel > After Jessica Alba's Tv Series :wub:

[Ranger]

Well you all know what the BIG bit is for...

(Owwwww, Matron!)

But the Ranger started when I used to play 'Ghost Recon' on the Apple Macintosh Internet game service - 'GameRanger'.

I was - then - [ ]Beaty, but due to a loophole in GameRanger when I changed clans I found that someone had pinched my 'Beaty' nickname and so had to use something else...So I chose Ranger, after GameRanger and I have used 'Ranger' since.

Beaty is just what everyone calls me as my second name is 'Beat' (figures the way I play!).
