What does your screen name mean? Or where did it come from?
« on: November 04, 2010, 02:28:51 PM »
We seem to have a pretty big variety of usernames here.  Some are pretty obvious in their meaning... others maybe not so much.

So what does your screen name mean, and how did you come up with it?

BlueBMW - I like BMWs, and I like blue, plus the two "B" sounds seem to flow nice :P  My personal BMW is actually white.

Mine isn't anything fancy. Simply my first name followed by my initials.

I play alot of D&D.

Arkhan was my elf fighter mage.

I got the name by respelling Archon.  I still don't know the proper pronunciation of that game anyway.

wow....i still remember his name from when we drafted him...i think he was from Vancouver's last draft year....

Anyways, Colossus of the X-men is my favourite comic book character (even though he regularly gets beatup by other powerhouse guys in the Marvel universe). The 1-5-7-4 was his stats from an old defunct card game called Marvel Overpower. And my name is also my Ebay ID  8)

I once won an Archon tourney (NES) at a friend's birthday! It was single elimination! Great memories!

That's right! They drafted him very high (number 2) and never really played him.

Mine's from an old Mithotyn song called "The Old Rover". My other nickname, Nodtveidt, is from Jon Nodtveidt, the late frontman for the band Dissection.

Y'know, I'm not really sure what's up with my screen name. It's pretty bland, though... just like me!

necromancer
   –noun
      1. one who practices necromancy (a method of divination through communication with the dead; black art).

Which really means nothing.  More importantly, Necromancer is a PCE game, a sci-fi book from the sixties, and a song by Rush (the awesomest Canuck band evah!).  Plus, it's a combo of NEC and romancer..... meaning I like to have sex with Turbobs or something.
