Oh, i see.

I never played Warhammer.

Warhammer dawn of war 1-2 are awesome. I was a command and conquer fan when i grew up but i've played the first DOW game more than any other RTS due to the last 2 expansions :P You should try them out if you like RTS's. The first one is base building where the second is more of a tactical game.
The RTS are rather irrelevant to Kharn the Betrayer though, as it is a reference to the tabletop.

Well my nerd level haven't reached that far... Yet! Had a friend back in school that was fiddling around with it but thats about it :shock:

I was playing Fallout tactics with my brother and we chose the picture of out main character because the guy on it looks like Jack Sparrow (The same one on my profile here). But FOT didnt have space for the whole name Jack Sparrow ... only the "W" was missing. So i had to come up with something so I used Jax (the muscular guy from mortal kombat 3).

@ Wintermind: man you misspelled Makta's name :D with Matka ... matka means uterus in bulgarian xD.
 
Well pyro means fire. Fire is cool. My first name starts with a "D". Thus pyroD. But I won't be jumping into your conversation soo...
 
I've never been any good with names. Mine was a slip of the tongue as I was brainstorming potential handles aloud, back when I first started frequenting NMA around the turn of the century (I'd done occasional flybys before then under the name of "Boss Gauss," but I soon realized that the name (and the posts) were lamentably immature and I wanted a fresh start when I joined the community in earnest).

I kept it for want of anything better, and it turned out to fit quite nicely, if I do say so.
 
My username was taken from the Metal Gear Solid game series. I used it a long time ago on a website, and it just kinda stuck ever since.
 
I used to go by Jackaz2all but, when a forum I used to post on switched from ezboards to bbboards and I had to re-register, I kept screwing up - I would type username for username, but my password for e-mail (since we were simply porting over our old usernames). I failed 3 times to read what I was supposed to do and locked out that username. To express my displeasure, I went the route of self-deprication called myself an "Idiot" and a "Fool" and simply registered a new username.
 
"Wintermind" is a reference to the Sword of the Stars games. THere's a somewhat villainous race of horrible dudes who had habit of enslaving other races. One of these races (who freed themselves by utilizing a biological weapon against them) were a bunch of perfect psychic space whales, the Liir, who had no concept of evil or anything else like that. So they called them Suul'ka, which ended up referring to anything alien and/or evil. They also called them ((or one of them, they tend to refer to the whole race as a singular person) as Wintermind and/or the lords of winter.

This is a great story :)


Wintermind your sig kinda blows my mind a bit. Where is it from?
 
I know it from a Giraffes? Giraffes! song, whose name escapes me at this moment. Well, more accurately, i know what it's called but fuck if I can remember how it's spelled.


Here we go:

I Am S/H(im)e[r] As You Am S/H(im)e[r] As You Are Me And We Am I And I Are All Our Together: Our Collective Consciousness’ Psychogenic Fugue.

Google it for the song proper and probably hte source of the quote.
 
I don't even like my name, but it's been with me for a while and I can't come up with anything better.

it's a reference to Tool's Aenima and the Deftones song Knife Prty.
 
Can I change mine? I have a stupid one. I'm named Akratus on every single other forum I'm on right now except this one. It irritates me.

It says you are Akratus, if you don't want that one, email a mod. I've seen probably a dozen people change usernames on NMA so yes it's definitely possible.

His name used to be Mjolnir. They changed it for him.
