I was SuperClone and ViCoDiN ... rolled Taurian Concordat and Death Jester Combine in MW2/4 .... MercJohns or Brain trolling around here? Some of you might also remember Type-O-Negative and/or his brother Novicane

I played in Death Jester Clan back on MPlayer...way back in the 90's. I remember MercJohns quite well...lost contact with him a long time ago unfortunately. Remember him, Ogre, Steel,...those are the names off the top I can recall. I went by Capt Rosha.

I think i used Mako (after the shark) for a short while in 'Fatal Racing' (think it was called differently in the states) but quickly changed my nick to Tarskin (with Tarscales being a popular alt name) a little while before Everquest went live (1999, Ancient history for most I guess).

When we played CBT and messed around on BBS's I was Archdæmon. I actually didn't give that to myself. Of course we played a lot of AD&D back in the 80s, and the way I fought on the map (and could pull victory from the jaws of defeat) caused my friends to claim that I was in league with an archdaemon. Whenever we played in tournaments (effectively for lunch money) they'd put me in the bracket as Archdæmon, not as my name.

As I got older I felt the whole demon thing was a bit childish, but I wanted something that would make my friends chuckle (or sigh) and let people who understood the context know my favorite game (and the House I sided with). So in the start of the Internet Age (AoL and beyond) I've been MaxLiao (or, on occasion, TormaxLiao). Strangely, when I sign up on a new site - even popular ones - MaxLiao is rarely ever taken.

I was reading about this head hunters tribe called Dayak people while downloading kali and had to fill in callsign to start it up..so I typed in Dayak.

Let's see, in High School -back when dinosaurs were free-range-, since we lived near Miramar, where the Top Gun school is, in 1987, my friends started calling me Afterburner. Before I started Armageddon Unlimited in late '97, I was known as Burnie, Burn, and Spaz, hehe. I've been The Wolf, Wolf, or Kay Wolf ever since.

I used Rahvin for MW3 and 4, from the Wheel of Time series. I've been using Retribution for the 9-10 years since. I've never seen anyone else use the name but someone beat me to the punch here, so I needed a little something to one-up 'em.

I believe that my first one was Princip. I used this for MW2 and the pods. At this time, I had a fascination with Gavrilo Princip and The Black Hand (yah i know he likely wasn't a part of it!).


Mine was Shredder and will always be shredder and it was not by choice it was becouse my friends name me like that, if you ever play with me online when Mechwarrior Online comes out you will see why they call me shredder.

Hmmm, I was playing MW2, and that was eons ago, I had to have been like 12. I think I used Kohl and thesleepingdark. I've never been able to land on one I use all the time, it varies by game.

<----

I used it after watching Saturday night live, and not knowing how to spell it correctly It came out as that. I've kept it for so long since it's pretty recognizable, google that and everything you see involves me in some way.

It was 'Raptor'. Came about when there was a Virtual World here in town. Alas, that was many, many, moons ago. Many fond memories of flying a Thor V6. I was always slightly irked that they configurations weren't always canon though. Ah well, c'est la vie.

Edit: fixing stray html code
