hmmm.........
of my many aliases, most have some meaning
my first was AdArdman (many years ago)
basically my name is adam, and i thought ardman would be a suitable name (completrely untrue ;))
then it was Men@ce (and then Men@ced), mainly for q2dm. Basically i liked the idea of being a menace (then i realised it was me who was being menaced! :))
my current name comes from Lock Stock (track no 15 on the soundtrack). sort of cockney swagger i suppose :) + i'm a kosher geezer! etc...

ko·sher (kshr) also ka·sher (kä-).
adj.

Judaism.
Conforming to dietary laws; ritually pure: kosher meat.
Selling or serving food prepared in accordance with dietary laws: a kosher restaurant.
Slang.
Legitimate; permissible: “consolidating noneditorial functions of the papers, which is kosher” (Christian Science Monitor).
Genuine; authentic.
v. tr. ko·shered, ko·sher·ing, ko·shers.
To make proper or ritually pure.

(nothing to do with the jewish bit, i'm not religious)

Hi to Kryten and Alex, (speak soon)

old.Solworks

Guest
Hi... Well I have 2 nicks really.. I have had them for some time as noone else seems to use them and I do like my name to be original..

there is Sol, as in the latin for Sun.... Solworks because I just got my own little domain http://www.solworks.org :) which i think just rolls off the tongue.

I used to be known as The Preacher for a long time, but other people started using the same nick and I kinda found that annoying so I changed it.

The first time I ever played q2 online my nick was FoxyVixen[cough ;)] but I soon changed that. I bizarrely still remember once when I was FoxyVixen Grappling upto the quad on q2ctf4 and then getting plastered by a vagrant rocket :)

old.Horse

Guest
Nickname

My nickname was born right about the time Mega TF was released for Quake I. My friend and I were really into it, he was going by Jackass!!! and I chose Horse to keep with the Barnyard theme. Yes, why Horse? One of the following is true:

1) I have a scratchy voice.
2) My friends always ask, "Why the long face?"
3) I have a big long nose.
4) I live in Texas and own two horses.
5) My real name is actually Horace.
6) My wife gave me the nickname in the shower.
7) Of course, of course.

old.logic7

Guest
Well... I've already explained my other name, Subject28, so I'll explain this one.

Logic7 was my old Quake/QuakeWorld name. I picked it 'cause I was nicknamed "Logic" from my old 8 bit programming days ("dood... the way you're coding that is not logical...") and from watching so much anime. Logic7 sounded like an anime character's name (Madox 01, Black Magic M66, ect...).

I'm not actually sure, but I'm told that Mungo Jerry is a character in Andrew Lloyd Weber's musical 'Cats'. It just sorta sprang into my mind when I registered with Yahoo, and it stuck ever since. I am mungo jerry wherever I go.
mungo2jerry@yahoo.com
It's mungo2jerry cos there was already one at yahoo. If I hadn't thought of it, I might have become Zeddicus or something (from a book I read, no stupid jokes please).
____________________________________________________________
Mungo Jerry will frag u all! When he gets a decent net connection, of course. ;)

Guest
Stazbumpa.

What the hell was I thinking??
What the hell had I been drinking too??

I used to use Blitz (my DJ name) but using Blitz as an ID became a pain because it seems every bastard uses it (blitz9385621031@hotmail.com for example).
Stazbumpa, on the other hand, was first coined early this year by myself after being set upon by one of the doorman after a nights DJ'ing (in a jocular manner I might add) and and so the obligatory Bruce Lee impersonations erupted and culminated, for some reason that I still don't really understand, in the newly invented word: "Stazbumpa".
And there you have it.

I love it coz I can log anywhere first time as nobody has ever heard of it or even understands it.

And neither do I.

Luv and hugz
Staz

Guest
nick

mine comes from the greek god of awesomeness, me. :)
 
V

Vroomparrot

Guest
First used Vroomparrot in the old Amiga game Supercars2. I think I may at the time have been subconsciously thinking of Monty Pythons Dead Parrot Sketch: "This parrot wouldn't go voooom if you put 15000v up it" (or something to that effect). My mate then chose the name of Quackmaster - I suppose staying with the bird theme for some reason.

old.{DvT}Ithaqua

Guest
The {DvT} bit is Clan Deviants (see the link in my sig)

Ithaqua = Innuit wind daemon known for devouring lone bods walking about in the frozen north (anthropomorphism of cabin fever dont ya know!) :D

Also

Bill_Gates_Ate_My_Hamster = don't know why... probably something to do with dodgy tabloid headlines and old Amiga Games

Used to be Thanquol, but I dropped that one because it's a trademark by Games Workshop Inc and I didn't want to get sued. :)

Guest
Sod that m8, I've seen Abbadon, Kharn, Tycho, Blood Angel and all sorts of Games Workshop names on CS servers. You ain't earning money off it and the chances of them sueing are miniscule at worst.
