I'm born with a liver disease and i'm hypersensitive to many things that affect the liver like alcohol, caffeïne, chocolat, ... The few beverages i can drink are tea and juice (mainly applejuice) Because of this i'm (almost) addicted to applejuice. This nickname i used to use, but i shortened it to Juice. The exlamationmark is just there to make me feel better :D Juice < Juice! | ||

I played Maple Story ~5-6 years about back in 8th grade. When I started playing WoW, I needed a name and just chose Papulatus since I thought it sounded cool. It's stuck since. | ||

Nuithari
Belgium737 Posts
"Nuit" also means night in French. And at the time, I was also writing a novel where the main character was named Thari, so I've used the combination of the two for as long as I can remember: "Nuithari" (EDIT: typo) | ||

I fell in love with Strife back in 1996 and I was downright addicted to playing it for over a year. It was not a very popular game because it was the last game to use the doom graphics engine and it was released just shortly before Quake launched. Naturally with the anticipation of Quake and 3d graphics a Doom engine game was doomed. Nevertheless it was a fantastic game that did many things not seen again in the first person shooter genre for quite some time. There was a mix of some elements of stealth, rpg, multiple endings, friendly AI, interactive npc's. I loved the game so much that it was difficult for me to accept Quake, which was just a better looking Doom where you do nothing but run and shoot stuff (I love that too...I still play doom and doom 2 as well as Quake DM which some friends). So Macil is the leader of the "Front" which is a group of rebels trying to resist the "Order" which is a group that has taken over the world. It is a religiously themed order which is controlled by an alien entity that crashed onto the planet in a comet. It releases a virus which affects some people and forces them to obey its will. The entity is believes to be the One God. The order isn't so ordered after all, and they are really different factions competing with each other to find pieces of a weapon called the "Sigil" which is used as a key to release the entity from its place of holding on an alien vessel. The sigil is also the only weapon that can harm the entity. So your goal starting out is to work for Macil and attack the order and ultimately take over their castle. Later you try to acquire the Sigil so you can confront the entity and either kill it or die which would result in it running loose and destroying everything. Macil turns out to be a traitor who was trying to use you to get him the Sigil so you get to blow him away and take his piece of the sigil. I liked the character and I've used it frequently ever since then. BTW for anyone who enjoys old first person shooters but who hasn't played Strife I highly recommend getting it. If you play with the zdoom port you can use mouse look which makes the game easier to play. There are some elements of the game which feel incomplete (maybe they were trying to get it out asap before Quake?) but overall it is fun and worth at least one play through. | ||

Grimmyman123
Canada939 Posts
Back when BBS' were kicking off, in highschool, I picked Grimm, from the comic series Mother Goose and Grimm that was in the news paper. I thought the little bugger was funny as hell. a picture of Grimm: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://stuartngbooks.com/images/detailed/12/peters_port_mother_goose_cv.jpg) When I joined the expert Team in an MMFPS Aliens Online MANY years back, my nick became Grimm[DR] for the team Divine Right Divine Right is mentioned in this article: + Show Spoiler + When Aliens Online disbanded, I continued with others in Magestorm also hosted by Gamestorm (owned by EA) and based on the same sprite game engine. When Gamestorm closed, I kept the tag for a while, but dropped it a year or two later, playing other games. I used Grimmy in Starcraft and Broodwar (around a D or C- player), as someone grabbed Grimm, and later in most games I added the "man" portion, and numbers as required to make a uniquie identifier, though I prefer Grimm or Grimmy. So, in Sc2 I am Grimmy, in forums and such, Grimmyman, or Grimmyman123 as required. | ||

Perfect
United States322 Posts
It sounded awsome to me so I used it. Little did i know it was the name of a Band he liked. So I used perfect circle for 10 years in both SC:BW and tons of other games. When i picked up sc2 i realized that Perfectcircle was too long of a name so I shortened it to Perfect. Little did i know that there was a former WC3 player named perfect. So now everytime i play someone they think im him. It doesnt help that I am a high masters lvl player and he usually sits at Top Masters or GM and everyone at that lvl thinks they are playing Perfect. Now known as RGNPerfect | ||

bomber714
United States1 Post
Growing up I always watched "Tom & Jerry," and Spike was such a cool looking dog. I did not ever see a real Bulldog until I watched a random Georgia College game and I was like, wow... they do exist. Anyhow, we wanted a powerful name so we came up with Bomber. Bomber the Bulldog. Sounds cool right? This dog was smelly, drooled, but my best friend and I love him. I looked past all <---. He is a GREAT dog. My foot warmer when I gamed. So I dled my first fps game COD, before this it was all Tiberium Sun and D2. I hung around a tactical realism server and created Bomber for my game name. Six months later of playing this game nonstop, I was invited into a TR clan. After that this name just stuck. Now Bomber is 8 years young and I made him a short vid for his Bday. If you love your dog, I would like to share the dog love for you dog people: | ||

Capped
United Kingdom7236 Posts
After a couple years i realised i needed to stick with one name to define myself, my brother in law used "MovingTarget" (as we played FPS back then. Still do! ^_^) so i thought to myself, well i get shot a shit load why not just call myself already dead? Hence Capped was born! ~ Much cooler then "Dead" "Deceased" Or "Shot" IMO.  - Before that i used "Freya" on guild wars, but i decided it was gay and couldnt be used with a man Kinda hard for people to understand in MMO's and i got asked alot...played GW / WoW for 5+ years too. SC2 kinda just thinks marine when they read it | ||
