I've always been kinda fascinated with group psychology and how people's decision making changes when immersed in a group. A meeple is a kind of generic toy person so various id's over the internets include meeple, sheeple, schmeeple etc.

Giant Pandas have their largest population in Sichuan Province China. I also like Szechuan style food (Americanized spelling of Sichuan). So that's how I came up with this name. Plus my WoW name (yes I have played WC3 and SC:BW - probably more than WoW) ElvishSolution, doesn't really work for an RTS now does it lol.

I used to be known as Mephistopheles on a metaphysical/philosophy discussion website back when I thought I knew the meaning to life. When I switched to Starcraft, I wanted to choose the name, but it was too long for my ID. So, I went with something that was related to Mephistopheles, and it happened to be Faust. The end.
I want to fuck Soulkey with a Zelderan.

When I was getting into sc I saw a couple Chal_renge games and he was hella baller and his n.die tag was so fitting. And then JD won the MSL and he was my favorite player to watch because he was also awesome and hella baller. So when I decided to start playing it made perfect sense to throw the n.die tag down in front because thats what hella baller gosu's do. Unfortunately I sucked... I was trying to learn zerg and I was just getting smashed every game. So it's like never die! Jokes I blow ass.

Yea I'm kinda like that. Whenever i play an rpg and the name screen comes up >.> this could take a while...More often than not, just end up forcing myself to just pick anything for the sake of time.

Fortune = wealth, luck. Simple word, strong meaning.

Syn i put in front of my name when Fortune is taken, which is basically always.

Syn comes from a True Combat clan called ]Syn[ that I played in. I was ]Syn[Bahamut.

True Combat is an oldschool mod for quake 3, that plays like call of duty with ironsight etc.

When I first came to TL, I didn't have a screenname, so I used This-is-not-a-smurf (because it wasn't rofl). I ended up changing to Empyrean before the rules tightened on name-changing (it was only after a few hundred posts back in like 2004) because it was a cool sounding word. Starcraft is actually the only place in which I use it.

Tales of Phantasia. Somewhere in the last dungeon (I know precisely where) of the main story line you'll find that which I got my name from.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

All original.

Needed a word to describe headspinning since that was my "thing" in bboying. So I thought of the word "core" which I ended up liking but thought it was too common. So I changed the "C" into a "K" which made "kore".

Really ended up liking this name because ...

1. I've never seen anyone go by this name.
2. "Kore" is "Korea" without the "A" and I am Korean ... so yeah.

Final product -> kOre

Why did I caps the "O"? I have no idea, it just looks better that way. ^^ Took me a good like 2 weeks to get a name I was going to use forever. Now I am ...

BBOY kOre!
