My avatar was from a nifty print I found online. Fully blow out, he's holding a shotgun and Uzi. I was bored of my old avatar, a cowboy leaning against a post.

Damit i thought it was a bear leaning against a post.
:o

I´m loxley, the name was taken long ago in a fallout game far far away.
I don´t have an avatar because i have not bothered to get one yet.

I think I saw that guy in a comic book once, he was standing on a rooftop, smoking a ciggarette, and he had these two-couloured sunglases on. He looks really cool.

Oohh, i found him. It really looks like the guy in Gunslingers signature.
 
With all the new people here i think it's time to revive this thread.

Well, i used to use the brGandalf nickname (br standing for brazil) but then a creepy guy started mailing me and stalking me in diablo saying i had stole his nick, so i gave it up, also the movies made this kind of open LotR references "lame", what's in now is Weird silmarillion references, like Mormegil. Well i tried that for awhile, but didnt get used, so i settled for "monkey" in portuguese (with an optional 'Pimp", few people use it, since it's usually used as a rough equivalent to calling a black person "nigger" in the us.

For the avatar just look here http://www.engrish.com/detail.php?imagename=cragstonmonkey.jpg&category=Toys&date=2003-07-08

And the fact that once someone told me that Briosa had to be something from a medieval-fantasy world just showed how strange it sounds to non-portuguese, and that`s good enough for me :)
Heck, i'm from Brasil and i find that strange-sounding.
Also, since you seem to care for soccer, thank us for lending you Luis Felipe Scollari so he can get Portugal out of perpetual mediocrity... by the way, did you win the Eurocopa?

Also i need to ask: is it true you have jokes about brazilians there?
 
My username is a gramatically wrong one.It must be was ist das(what is this) and the answer is something like "Oh my god,2 Heads"It doesn't show my origin,I just though it out.It isn't so witty.
 
Good lord, talk about gravedigging.

Might as well talk about the topic while I'm here:

This goes back a while. So I used to have the same username for everything. It was tolkienlotr. Yes, I was a Tolkien fanboy back in the day, before it became commercialized like today. Anyways, my AIM screen name was also tolkienlotr. So, there were a lot of people that I didn't like that had my screen name that attempted to talk to me, but I had no desire to talk to them. So, instead of just blocking those people, which probably would have been the logical thing to do, I decided to make a new screen name. I wanted it to be something pretty stupid, and just to make it arrogant as well, I decided upon kingocreation. There was no real reason behind it. Just the pure arrogance of claiming to be the kingocreation. Not just the king of the world, or the universe, but of all creation. So that's my stupid story.

On the jokes no, we let the children play (Brazilians and the the jokes on portuguese) while we make fun of ourselves, like older and wiser people do.

On the mediocraty of our football, well, a portuguese team won last year the UEFA cup and this year the Champions League, the most important club competition in the world (with a good help from a couple of brazilian players), this time we got second place on the EuroCup, last time we got third, so things aren`t as mediocre as you think.

But thanks for Filipão anyway, and for Manhatan Conection, the TV show, i love it. Oh and for Adriana Calcanhoto, Maria Rita and Gabriel o Pensador too.

But can you take your awfull soap operas back? Except for the ones from the seventees i really hate them :)
 
Welllll...

Ro was my first FFRP character I created, for medevil fantasy RP... put a lot ...a lot of work into her over the years... created her... her people... her race... her powers... her weaknesses... etc... etc...

I've been rping this character for a LONG time now...
If anyone REALLY wants to know all about her... Feel free... I'm not going to make this post too long.

Oh my sig is from a saying I came up with... I've Opped a few different RP rooms... found out both times.. "Oh yeah.. THAT is why I hate opping" but.. I"m a sucker for punishment... going into it the second time I knew I shouldn't... but there were not a lot of choices for the owner at the time...

Anyway... in dealing with people that seem to have an IQ of 30... I started to say mostly to my self... but people sometimes... If I were a willow tree, I'd bend... but I'm not.. so deal with it.


And there is the boring truth of it. :wink:
 
I used to be Lord of the Drow, lame I know, but I was a kid back then, and a FR fan (don't ask me why). I then switched to $upercow, but that was lame, so I finally came up with Baboon. The origin of that name is simple. I used to play MOHAA on Gamespy Arcade a lot, and one of the avatars in the program featured a baby baboon. So I just chose that.

I'm planning on changing that very soon though. Any ideas?
 
Brios:
I hate those soap operas, "mídia boçalizante" as Diogo Mainardi once called them in manhattan connection (that guy rocks).

About the soccer, i guess i'd call that mediocrity, but that comes from having the best team in the world :wink: .

And finally, when it comes to music I'm not much of an MPB guy, but i do think those are a good alternative to Roberto Leal. :lol:

Ook.

It's a bit of a stretch, but then it's evidently better than anything you'd come up with yourself. :P


PS:
Ah yes, my nick. I used to use Hawk as nick for Highscores in games. It was like, cool or something. I guess it really started with playing Comanche, and I thought Hawk was a cool name for a pilot I guess.
Then a friend of mine bitched at me for "stealing" his nickname, as he claimed it was. I then experimented around with several other birds and body parts... Hawkeye, Eagle, Talon.. eventually I settled for Claw because it's pretty short and many Hi-scores allowed only few letters. Actually, I tried Eye for a short while, since often you could only enter 3 letters, but I couldn't get used to it.
 
The Holy Bible.

The disciple John. A disciple of Christ that was so humble that he did not mention his name in the book of John, but instead referred to himself as "the disciple whom Jesus loved."

My name is John, and, since John is a common name, my online name is disciple john. Only a crazy religious right-wing nutjob would choose that as a name, apparently. Good for me, since it isn't common.
 
I called myself 'quietfanatic' so that it could be flexible.

-I am a Fallout fanatic, who doesn't post much.
-I am a Warhammer fanatic, who doesn't post much.
-On the odd occasion I post it is unlikely that I get a reply, just as in real life I have a quiet voice.
-Although I am a pretty calm and quiet individual usually, sometimes I will post a long and detailed message, or attack someone's opinion with a hint of passionate fervour. I would assume that would surprise people, hence the contradictory name. If I start being too hostile, I will just have to try to think to myself, "be quiet, your sounding like a fanatic over this issue and that is not what you are. Stop."

Necromunda is the best Games Workshop game by far, allowing you to control gangs of warriors in a semi-post-apocalyptic setting, using only a small amount of those bloody expensive models, some home made terrain and a strong combat system.

The Redemption are a faction in the hive cities of Necromunda who burn mutants, psychics, heretics and anyone else who gets in their way. Thus my av would immediately distinguish me as a fanatic for Fallout and Necromunda, because only a fanatic would use a picture of a little toy to represent themselves. I recommend that you play this combat-RPG if you are going to play any Warhammer game, its cheap and closer to Fallout in its feel than most other things I see around.

As for my sig, that's stress relief. If I say something really stupid, just imagine a sprite of me grovelling to the Master, begging for forgiveness. Then watch as the character is spontaneously being torn to pieces by some unseen force. Your annoyance.

test example
I sing, act, play euphonium, baritone and flugal horn and am the guy that tops the 'difficult' test. (see sig)
