The other name I go by: Grimm_Fandango came from the game Grim Fandango, I was looking for a name quick when I first started playin quake2 online in the zone, this particular pcgamer demo cd was sitting right here, and I liked the name, so I used it (but I misspelled it)

Burble is a name from a book. The X is there for the ever-so-important reason of "I feel like it." People usually call me BX or Burb. The End.

Whenever I think of Asmodean, I think "snake", becuase in a book in the same series as the one I just mentioned has a snake named Asmodean. And I didn't know Asmodean was another word for satan, though.

I use to frequent the msg. board at www.jediknight.net and they had a forum called the "Mauling Area" I believe. You know tempers are going to flare up from time to time here and they knew that at JediKight.net, so why not add a forum called the "Q3 Mauling Arena" or something like that so that people can let off some steam and not get into trouble for it?
Just a thought.

I actually use different revisions for different things. At work I use Vid 6.8a (business version)

I was thinking about changing it to Vid 2000, but then I'd have to kill myself.

-----(Vid 6.7 (freeware) --- Formally known as "Zombie" )-----

My name is the result of 17 years of evolution. I got my first computer back in 1983, and vry quickly discovered BBS's. Well, everyone needed a name, so I chose Silicon_Dragon. The name was prfect back then because it combined my two passions...computers and fantasy.

I used Silicon_Dragon fairly steadlily from 1983 up until 1993, when I was introduced to this cool new game called DOOM. Great game, but I had one problem...my name was too long! DOOM wouldn't hold the entire name! So, after using the same name for 10 years, I simply became "Dragon". Dragon didn't get as much use as it's predecessor. In '96 this guy named Dave 'Drag0n' Brewer started becoming fairly famous in the Quake community. Even though I had been using the name for 3 years at that point, people started calling me a copycat. So once more my name changed...to Draco (yet another variation of dragon). Alas, this name was also not meant to be. That same year, 1996, the movie DragonHeart was released. And you'll never guess what the name of the Dragon was...Draco. Well, I think I actually used it until early 1997, but by that point it seemed like there was 10,000 Draco's playing Quake.

So I deliberately misspelled it and became Drako. And I've been Drako ever since

Ok, MidiPunk...
MIDI=Musical Instrument Digital Interface.
A common misconception is that I compose punk rock MIDI songs; nope! I was considering the name "MidiMaestro", but that was far too bold for me. I'd never consider myself much more than a punk at this MIDI stuff!
There ya have it

To Assimilate is our goal!

woohoo for batha poodoo

Tiamat would be easy, but Asmodeus would have been hard. We were determined to do it though, it would have been interesting, but we never did get around to it. It also would have been interesting to go into the 666 layers of the Abyss and cause some chit. That would have been fun.

I still have all my old AD&D books kicking around. I think its about time I got rid of em...

So, we thought for a minute about a name, bro picked up a mag (scientific american, i think) I had on the table and leafed thru it. There was an article about MIT students who had programmed 'robotic gladiators' for a contest. The winner was named 'Fishstick from Guam'.

Even before that, when i started DM in the days of Duke3d, my name was simply "Nick" if i recall correctly. Then I changed it to Lord Nickster. Dilinger might remember that....cause we were in a battle of the sexes clan together. After that, i changed the name to Veovis, who was Aitrus's enemy in the book. Then I changed it to Aitrus, then , then aItRuS, then aitRus. now it is still that, and of course CellClone XXX (which is just the cellclone hive thing, and af course my favorite thing -anything that is triple-x =)

Damn, that was a hell and stupid reply......

aitRus
CellClone XXX

Mean and menacing, one of the galaxy's best bounty hunters is used to tracking down his prizes, with the possible exception of a crafty Corellian smuggler. Many tales are told of Fett's background and exploits, but there are few verifiable facts--perhaps by design.

Fett wears the armor of the Mandalorians, a group of fearsome warriors dating back to ancient times who were defeated by the Jedi Knights. His modified armor includes a helmet with a macrobinocular viewplate, motion and sound sensors, infrared capabilities, an internal comlink with his ship (the Slave I), and a broad-band antenna for intercepting and decoding transmissions; wrist gauntlets that house lasers, a miniature flame projector, and a fibercord whip/grappling device; a back-pack jet pack with a turbo-projected magnetic grappling hook with a 20-meter lanyard; knee-pad rocket dart launchers, spiked boots, a concussion grenade launcher and a BlasTech EE-3 rifle. Braided Wookiee scalps hang over his right shoulder.

Fett has worked on retainer for Jabba the Hutt as well as for the Empire. He is methodical in his tracking. While he doesn't seem to hold grudges against his prey, that may be because he rarely loses his quarry. After the Battle of Hoth, Darth Vader summons Fett along with five other bounty hunters and offers a huge bounty for Han Solo. Fett succeeds in tracking the Millennium Falcon to the Bespin system, and he helps Vader capture Solo, and then brings the onetime smuggler - frozen in carbonite - to Jabba the Hutt. In a fight with Solo's friends atop the Great Pit of Carkoon, Fett falls into the mouth of the monstrous Sarlacc, to be digested over a period of a thousand years. Or is he?

i used to go by Jedi; but thats a little over used. Boba Fett is over used too so i add the CellCloneClan designation to it to get:

If you believe the above you don't know that I am full of sh*t most of the time. I think the truth is that when I tried to register Cyborg@hotbot.com they said it was taken and gave me Cyborg6@Hotbot.com

JoJo~ I met Neil Pert from Rush and he signed my Vic Firth sticks when I was young. I used to be able to play along with any Rush tune on my beat up drum set. Those where the dayz! =)

You got a problem with that!

anyway, I kept getting called a ghost for all kinds of different reasons. One time I was playing a friend in something or other and was able to pull a sneak attack. I got up above him on a ledge and then suddenly fell down right in front of him with guns blazing. Scared the crap out of him, so I said "boo." He said, "what are you, a ghost?"

case number 2: I had a T1 connection for a while but now it's gone =( I was playing an HPB and he said I kept flickering across the screen like a ghost...

number 3: a dude was chasing me in a game and I ran out of ammo =( I did the best I could to escape, but he was starting to really hurt me. I guess there was a flaw in the map or something, but out of nowhere I fell through the floor into the lower level. He said he saw me disappear into thin air...

Now that I'm an HPB I get slaughtered more often than not. That's why I'm dead...and therefore I'm a ghost.

the HH is because "ghost" was taken already, and I'm the webmaster for the Haunted House.

=)

Someone that I know still remembers me as "Fuzzy Bunny". My screen name at the time was WhatEver but he saw the name Fuzzy Bunny first. Why Fuzzy Bunny you ask, it was a name in Diablo. I wanted pk's to attack me so I could obliterate them with my "Ramonds Diablo Hack". Guess what, it didn't work. The people in there actually treated me with more respect.

Uh oh. I've brought up Diablo in a Quake forum. Now everyone is going to gang up on me and beat me until I'm a bloody pulp. Maybe if Asmodean could find it in his heart to forgive me for my ill-use of this forum that he could persuade the angry mob from killing me.
