	Where did you get your 'Poly name from? Suffering from ads?

Pekkas thread got me thinking, how did you people pick your 'Poly names?

Mine pretty straight forward, I'm a Liverpool supporter and a socialist, so 'reds4ever'.

C'mon then lets 'ave 'em.....

I think I had a chart of constellations hanging on the wall in my room. I took a glance at it, thought "that sounds neat", and made a decision I've been stuck with for over three years now.

How about "Antti"? We already have Ari (Rahikkala), Jaakko and Pekka.

but... if you must know. It's actually a shortened version of my original screen name. Dissident Aggressor. Technically that isn't my original screen name, as this is technically a DL. back in my day you couldn't change your screen name like you could now. So when I grew bored of one name, I created an entirely new screen name. Krushala was my original name. I have also used puaxant tuvip. I have also used Black Bart. not to mention my many logins I used for nefarious purposes.

back on topic. Dissident Aggressor is the name of a judas priest song. Slayer also did an excellent cover of this song. I just thought the title sounded cool, so I used it as my name. Aggressor doesn't really fit my personality, so I dropped it after about a year.

I think it's a funny story. Although not perhaps for the reasons you'd prefer it to be.

It's the closest written translation of a transcendent memetic concept that the human mind can comprehend without bursting a blood vessel.

Or I though it sounded cool....

I like the Roman emperor Traianus, one of the greatest (military) leaders Rome's had.
It's trajanus with a J, because in dutch an i between 2 a's is written with a j.
I should change it

on every other forum my nickname is EvilBork: Orcs are evil. Bork is the name of an Orc. I love Orcs. I admit I was playing a lot of Age of Wonders 1 back then and was into fantasy a lot

Yes, I keep thinking it's supposed to be an erronous attempt at the English transliteration, which usually omits the -us, giving us "Trajan" as opposed to "TRAIANVS".

I used Geronimo as my Rulers name pretty much every time I played civ. Seemed logical to use it here too.

Agathon, you still haven't showed support for my friend. Frankly I am disgusted by this game you're playing. I think you don't realize how much this means to me and my friend.

Thus your name shouldn't be Agathon but HATER-Agathon.

Where did I say I didn't support your friend?

I just said that Finns are weird.
