Remember when I got a GuruMediation error, even though I don't have an Amiga?

I got mine from my favorite book Enders Game. Ender was taken and he was a Commander...thus CommanderEnder.

[WiseCherub]

Hey, I know where GuruMeditation got his? AMIGA? heh... remember those nasty crashes in earlier versions of Workbench..heh... The good old Amiga500 back in early 90s....

Why I chose my name?

Well I like flying the warbird, for me its characteristics make me think of Angels.

Most people would use names like Angel...this..blah blah... So I decided to use a word within the Bible...

Cherubim is what I wanted... but when I went into TW, it said I couldn't use it... so I thought of something on the spot... (WiseCherub) since I value in personal life the virtues of Wisdom.
*Hey read (Art of War - Sun Tzu) or (Proverbs- Bible) might help you with life.

Cherub = innocent child like Angel

Cherubim = ArcAngel (Lord of Angels)

It's funny how some players chose carefully chosen name; yet others use funny names like.... (Pass the ketchup or Hold the Onions) Like do they eat out a lot or something? Maybe they work at McDonalds and are playing the game in the backroom when business is slow.

[Da1andonly]

Where I got my name from? Actually I'm not even sure.. I don't remember, but I think it has to do with a song called "The One And Only" by Chesney Hawkes, but as said, I'm not totally sure

[Cylor]

My story is actually quite humorous.

I played Trench Wars for about two years (since '99, it was '01 at the time) on various names (about fifteen names) and no one really knew me, so I decided I needed a permanent name. Everyone that I idolized had a creative and memorable name, like Sika, Scuzzy Sureshot, banzi fuq, etc.. So I sat down with pen and a paper and for three days brainstormed creative names. I started off with words at first, but realized that people with word names aren't that memorable unless they are really good. So I went through a bunch of random letters in different orders until I had like fifty. I then chose it at random and decided it was good.

[Mootland Farmer]

I must have explained my name dozens of times now. But ah well, no harm in explaining it again.

I did not get the word 'Moot' from the dictionary, rather from a table top game called warhammer. In this game is the warhammer world, and a tiny part of the warhammer world is the 'Empire'. In the Empire there is a land called 'The Moot'. This is the land of the halflings, also known as hobbits. Halflings are half the size of a human and are slightly overweight. Anyway some halflings are adventourous, but most are farmers, providing food for the Empire. For a tiny sum of gold of course. Hence the word 'farmer', and my name Mootland Farmer.

Thats ma story.

[LightlyToasted]

I'm not really sure where I came up with LightlyToasted.... I used to think it was from the simpsons, the Lalapalooza or hullapalooza or whatever episode... It's not about freaks, it's about the music, and the advertisements... blah blah blah... and getting Toasted... Nicely Toasted. Since I know you've all seen it like a million times a vague description should be enough. But then, I dunno what kind of cereal it was, I think it was like quaker outmeal squares, I'm pretty sure. It said on the box "Lightly Toasted with a hint of brown sugar" So after I found out that the simpsons actually said Nicely Toasted I figured I must have remember it from the cereal box, but I really have no idea. I thought it was a funny name 4 years ago, so I'm still using it.
