Screen Names

Post by Goblin »

Capt. Pixel and hellcat gave me an idea. I will let you all talk about yourselves! What is the significance of your Screen Name?

I loooove night fighting at super close range! What creeps around in the dark, waiting to get you when you aren't looking? Goblins do.

Mine came from simple keyboard error.
One of my old opponents had a sticky "k" on his keyboard...or too many pints of Guiness....either way, some of his e-mails went like "Hey Jackk, I've lost my tankks to your dang KKing Tigers..."
After a few of those I started signing off with "Have a good one!
Jackk" And it just kept on from there.

Sadly I have that opponent no more. He faded away a couple of years ago. So if anyone is ever in touch with Mikke Wolf, tell him I said Hi.

Kind of a sedate story, Goblin, but you asked.

That DOES add to the flavor. And I learned some Polish too.
As for me - well, they're all PixelPeople, right? Why not their leader, too? (besides, I think Capt. Kangaroo was already taken :( )

I'd been remembering Red Skelton's recurring skit theme: "Two seagulls, Gertrude and Heathcliff, ...".

Funny the way some things stick in your mind:)

My old screen name was Sturmie, but I had to get a new one and went to Sturmpionier. Both are products of my WWII reenacting group, the 43. Sturmpionier Bataillon. Our unit mascot is a worm with a stahlhelm and kleinspat coming up out of the ground. Hence our nickname, the Squirmie Sturmies.

My name is kinda obvious. He was an awesome tacitician, at least for his time, but I believe good tacticians have a special ability to spot and use opportunities, regardless of the means they have at their disposal. e.g. Rommel would probably have made a great 100-years-War commander, and Belisarius would probably be pretty good if he found himself in a WWII environment.

I have considered changing it a few times, but then how would you guys recognize me? :p

Goblin, mine comes from the fact that friends and relatives are always commenting that I remind them of Fred MacMurray's character in the Disney movie if the same name, 'The Absent Minded Professor'. :D :D

Cool subject!

My real name is Ulf - originally a word for wolf, problem is it doesn't work internationally so I got the bright idea of using wulfir. :rolleyes:

I picked "Drex" because that's my name and darn if I was hard come by to find something that was anymore distinguishable than that. Nobody would call themselves Drex on purpose( it sounds to much like the German "drech") but that is another subject that I prefer not to dwell on.
