Why that nick??
Why do you guys have the nick you use?
Here's my history:
*** Rigger ***
-------------------------------------
Several years ago i played some rpg with GuyB and there was a npc called Rigger. I thought the name sounded pretty cool and it 's followed me ever since.

aka: Rig, Riggy, Rigster, Rigg0r, DanShark, R0gst0r, Rocker and many many others
My last name is Petersen and in the dialect of the part of Denmark that I am from Petersen is shortent to "petsen" and since I was very little my mother called my petsen, and my friends later on also called my petsen, because of our dialect in souther Jutland in Denmark, so now everybody called my petsen and then when I started to play Elma my nick surely had to be ------- petsen
rRRriBot
my original IRCnet nick, randomly cased, was from some wr table i think, where i saw rRulze or someit. it made me think, damn, extra letters that are not pronounced are needed!!!
rQ-¬%
this nick was specifically created for elm0r:
why a french nick? i like to use "french" in my bortnian. i'm the king in my own world; at least i want to be.
¿sycpe
one of my later compositions. psych, for psycho and psychoactive (phychedelic, psychiatric). cp for cerebral pares, who doubts i have a brain disease :] ? then there is the old cybe too, of the mushrooms.

- rQ-E - a short nick, after \dc, dz, px, and others, i wanted this style to
- rQ - short for ribot, or ribQt (smoked)
- E - Elasto Marihuana
- % - well if u look at the whole nick: rQ-E% u can see that it's a smoking weird dude on a bike, not much different from el ma dude

So, one of the friends decided to put "Carju" because of something..hm I should remember. His real name is Kalle and "karju" means male pig in Finnish, maybe this was the reason. Hm, don't think so..eh.
Then the second friend took "Tuska" nick. Actually it was "TuskaMC" at first (later MC came to our team name, Mahti Crossers). I picked up the nick from "Myrkky" -magazine.
Then I just took some really cool (not) nick Abula Butalulu. Yea, there were two parts at the beginning. Butalulu, hihi.
We all are playing Across/Elma with our real first names but in IRC/sites/contests and so on we have those sweet nicks. If I remember correct I used "Abula" first time in psymorph's across page, we liked (and still like!) AP levels.

I should play Age of Empires 2 with my big brother (Sauron on danish totallist) and then I wnated to have a good nick.
I looked in a logo catalog were some bionicle figurs have cool names.
Fist I took Pohatu or was it Tahu (can't remember) But I though it was a little bad one, so next time we played i took Kopaka which have followed med ever since

H2o2manden...
Probably doesn't mean a lot to most people, 'cause it's danish for "The H2o2Guy", which means "The Hydrogenperoxideguy".
I got it because of a danish musician singing about "the hydrogenperoxideguy", and I just think it's such a lame and pathetic name, that I wanted to call myself that. =)
I've wanted to change it for a long time, but it's like it's a part of me now, and I can't see myself called something else after so many years. =)

I invented the flying saucer!
Copy-pasted from my homepage:
And, as an addition to H2O2Mandens reply, hydrogenperoxide is the most common chemical used when bleaching (=making whiter) your hair. So it means "the fake blonde". LOL![/quote]Why do I call myself Zworqy? Well, I guess that is a good question. Actually, it's just the title of a techno-CD named Zwork that I have changed. I was fascinated by the fact that it contains two of the most uncommon letters in the swedish alphabet, Z and W. To make it even more fascinating, I added two other uncommon letters, Q and Y,
and there it was, Zworqy! It's Cool, isn't it!
I have like the most boring nick-history possible. It's Rasu cuz my name is, RAoul SUndsten. Don't know when I thought of that stupid nick, but anyway I only use it in the Elma-scene. My real official nick is Rawl, which I use in IRC and other places. It comes from a wierd pronounciation of my real name.
...Xupacabra...
Well, most of you know the original name is:
*La Chupacabra*
It is a belief from india or mexico (i forgot already) about a beast who used to come out at night and slay the familys' goats around.
at that time goats were important!! (go figure...)
and so i thought the story is preety cool...
i'm too lazt to write the wholw thing over and over...
so i mutated it to: Xupacabra
why>?
spelled with an x it looks cooler and also to fit into irc who requires 9 letters...
I'm known all over the net by this name
so there you go!

i was having boring day at school, all i could think about was elma elma and best time. then i thought a nick cuz abu has been complaining drleviathan was too long. :~b i made this mellow nick dezz, which was "ok" but i got annoyed by it later on and followed fashionaly formed it as dz, thats the story;§ ~
.
I had to invent a nick to put in the end of my lev names like "by xxx". Wanted something short so that the level name could be longer. As a imaginary person I am I took my initals Mika Palomäki(MP) ...oh yeeh, boring dull stupid lame but no can do
Dr. Leviathan -> Dezz -> Dz -> dzdz wrote:i was having boring day at school, all i could think about was elma elma and best time. then i thought a nick cuz abu has been complaining drleviathan was too long. :~b i made this mellow nick dezz, which was "ok" but i got annoyed by it later on and followed fashionaly formed it as dz, thats the story;§ ~
I asked if you could shorten it. You had so many records on Moposite and I had problems to get space for it :]. Same with his brother, NPhoBiaz, though I can't remember the longer version. Nyctobiaz or something.
Ye, nick shortening is a trend (at least was): psymorph -> psy, PeXi -> px, Snyder -> sny, MGen -> mg, SirEvilX -> EML, GuyBrush -> GuyB etc. Next DarMoeD -> DMD, TorInge -> Tor, Jeppe -> Jep? I wonder how the next trend will be.

My nick
Once I tried the demo for monkey island 3, and found it fun like hell, so I bought the game and played it. still having the name GuyBrush Threepwood in my head I entered elma and had to type a nick.. "hmm" I thought... GuyBrush ...
Later on I became annoyed that I couldn´t write the entire nick and the number of the level when I had to save my replay, so I shortened it when I had to save replays.. And then the name GuyB was born .. I liked it and chose it as my nick
while on the topic.. the name RDK
the name rdk means Riderfriends DenmarK
I live on a road called Ryttervej ... In english it means Rider-Road, and the friends whom I established RDK with all lived on the same road.. So Rider + ( first danish team ) = Riderfriends DK = RDk
LOL, I hope it made sence
GuyB[rdk]

ChuckleS...I really have no idea where it came from...
But the capital S is because my real nick is ={ChuckleS}= and for some reason the first and last letters of the nick ar caps...with the exception of ={RoniMoX}= who has completely ruined the whole concept
[MK] comes from ={MopokuskiS}= believe it or not

Well, let's see.
My mIRC name is "Carni", and that's the name all the elite CS players know me as. (Played CS for 3 years, still plays, work as admin at #warzone on qnet.) "Carni" actually comes from my real nick that is "Carnivora", but since everyone calls me "Carni".. yeah.. well..
Cna is just a short for Carnivora.
Have had that nick for many years so get used to it
Take care!

100,000 lemmings can't be wrong.
the story you have heard.
4 years ago I was thinking of my first nick ever and it happened because I had to,I just had got internet to my brand new computer and I was installing the ICQ that my friend wanted me to have. Then it required nick and Ville (my real name)was taken and I looked around and I saw it reads all over ONLINE ONLINE so I took it from that. onliner = onlainari in finnish.
My nick
Why Z-oren?
let's see..
Oren is my real name, and the Z has a long history in my life...
There is not enough place to write it here, and I'm sure Your'e not interested at it...
I know that this nick a bit sucks but I don't really care...

well my elma name is McLeod, which is my last name.
i was going to have Bob but twin peaks dude already has it!
but, my nickname bob has been around all of my life, even some of my teachers at school call me bob and not my original name: Kane.
i believe my old man made it up when i was young: bob the slob
(yes, i am a bum)

In my nick A is capital because my real nick is Abula? Ooh, because of that! Now we know. By the way ={ }= is very cool, maybe new trend would be that. ={Abula}=! Nah the new trend is psykahvi, dzhousut, mpkirjahylly as psy told me.

No don't be sorry abulakaappikello, must be sharp sometimes to tell what you think.
When i went to high school, some ppl who i was pogramming with (demos etc) wanted to give me nick. I liked Nitrogen, the thing in the air. So they thought NitroGenius, cuz why not genius :} My elder brother was their teammate, so i was the little in the familiy, and they called me MicroGenius after.
It seemed to be too long, so i used MGen. Or mgen, caps lock is far away in the keyboard... sometimes mg.
Then i stopped playing for tables (internal etc). I didnt want to use this anymore, not only cuz of this reason... i got to be carc, which nick is covered with mistery. Isnt it?

Well..... Let me think.....
Before I played Elma i always used to play Starcraft. (has anyone here played it?) I always played as these cool aliens, the Protoss. There is a cool Protoss hero named Zeratul. I just thought it was a cool name, so I started using it for everything. And here I am, using it as my Elma nick.
Also...
The uppercase at the end of my name is just there because it looks cool. No special reason.
