I'm actually a pretty famous giant lizard. Changed my name a bit to avoid stalkers.

Wondered where you got the Bishop part from and now I know.

I'm more of an Alien fan then the second. First movie the ever really terrorized me as a kid, still love it. Love it so much, bought a real Nostromo flight jacket from a prop house auction.


My name? Originates from my Father and his group of friends. As a teen, he went camping with his friends and lots of beer, just like me., One trip, they made a sign and hung it over the tent and empty beer cans and took a pic of all them together. Sign said TWIAFU. Once I was old enough, told me about the sign, its meaning, his friends. Since then, adopted it as my own.

Been with me ever since in many places....

Got a friend whose handle in a lot of games is WATAFU, Well Ain't This All F***ed Up.

[Bigsp00n]

I use "Bigsp00n" for almost all games I play, because my old ex-bf/gfs would try to be the big spoon while spooning and I be like "***** no, I am the bigspoon!"

Also,
Mah spoon is to BIG!
Now EVERYBODY DANCE!

[JediPanther]

I was bored to death playing swtor when mwo started up. Rather than use my normal handle I use every where else I chose to be a Jedi combined with my favorite big cat known for its stalking and killing ability. I've been playing since closed beta and was rather famous for my C1 skills then switched between it as my "main mech" to jenners.

My skills got me recruited into a unit for "being fearless" back when the atlas was king and the only 100 ton mech. Attacking them in jenners was suidide but I was known for atlas hunting. i've piloted jenners so long i've developed the sixth sense in them and proved my skills by getting ace of spades in the locust. Slowly working on death star but some one always gets that one or two kills ahead of me.i've had one unit member after witnessing my skills in battle as "it's as if he knows where they are."

[Sorbic]

Sorbic came about when I first gave WoW a try. Unable to find a name that wasn't taken I finally reached for a can of Monster, flipped to it's ingredients list and chose Sorbic (acid). I grew to like it so I kept it for every game since.

pulled Grimbane from an old foxtrot comic i used to read back in the 90's.. used it as my AD&D barbarians name since middle school lol

[Malachy Karrde]

I have been using Malachy (Pronounced Malachai) since everquest in 1998. I used different surnames over the years but in Star Wars Galaxies in 2004, I chose the name Karrde. Since then, I have used that name in every game. If you play a game and Malachy Karrde shows up, its me.

Malachy was a warrior priest in a book I read a long time go, I liked the name so have made it mine.

[Thunder Child]

Well, my in game Handle going way back was always Wra1th. Usually because I was one of those sneaky ******** that'd come up behind my opponents and kill them without them ever knowing what happened. Used to do it a lot in RTS games, as well as FPS. RTS was a bit trickier, because you needed to mislead your opponent as to which direction you were approaching from.

However, midway through my gaming career, my friends Dad (who used to join in most of our lan parties, cool guy, mostly) stole my name. There was much debate, but in the end I gave it up, and moved to Thunder Child.

Now, this is in no relation to War of the Worlds in the slightest. It was actually the name of my CLPT-C1 Catapult in MW4:Mercs Multiplayer. A poptarting Dual Thunderbolt Missiles Launcher Catapult. Nothing quite as satisfying as watching an opponent get vaporised at maximum range by a pair of Homing Death Missiles.

Of course, very first thing that gets brought up when I first start MWO, is "Oh, like War of the Worlds?". So I looked it up, realized that Thunder Childs glorious suicide charge usually fits my playstyle in game, and went "Sure, that's exactly it".

[Kjudoon]

Thunder Child, you don't use that name on World of Warships do you?

[Dino Might]

My initials in real life are TNT. I like dinosaurs, puns, and old tv shows.

[Col Jaime Wolf]

couldn't get me preferred handle. simply fell back on an old D&D moniker that i haven't used in ages.

[Karen Supreme]

My real account owner wanted a SHC.......and now he is not so happy.

Beware of your own desires.....

Yes, yes I do. Usually in a New York class Battleship, though I recently upgraded to the New Mexico.

[Sylonce]

I used to run with a handle that was a bit too common, so when MWO opened it's doors, I tried to come up with something a little original, in a way that was both easy to remember and also did not require me to append numbers at the end.

Being a bit of a quiet personality, I tried to find a word associated with 'Silent,' or 'Quiet.' Being a pilot (aviation) by occupation as well, the word 'seelonce' in general radiotelephone communication somehow stood out to me (i.e., "Seelonce, Mayday"). I simply replaced the 2 ee's with a y, and now I have an easy to remember handle.
