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 forgot to mention - Very spicey.

sYz-was the best team i was apart of, then the Adrenaline was one of my gamer tags that i was jumping around on trying to find a good one i really liked it then sYz- died. Found the team [AoV] and since Adrenaline[AoV] didn't ring a good bell i thought long and hard of a new ID, named myself bliss and it stuck ever since
Can you feel the rush?

From the Thomas Pynchon book Mason & Dixon. Being a medical student at the time, I found it to be especially funny/cute/whatever adjective you wish.

I made this id just because so no story behind it.b My bnet id is goswser, orignally Gosuser, but I decided on goswser because w = uu so it works, not that I'm a gosu user but anyways :D

I loved penguins when I was like 7-8 (which is also when I first got some internet access), so I made the name Penguin1234 (or something like that, I don't remember the numbers) for my first email and some other stuff my parents had me sign up for.

A few years later, I realized there were too many "penguins" on the internet after playing some BW and CS 1.5. I added "real" to the beginning to display my dominance over all of the fakes

Nowadays I usually just shorten it to "rptanoc," which is realpenguin in a convenient acronym + hardcore tano*c, one of my favorite hardcore techno circles.
<Wolfpox> i remember when MVP beat that one guy, and everyone was like 'whoa' except that penguin dude.

I was into DotA and admiring IceFrog's ID, so I thought taking a similar approach: some type of descriptive animal would be sufficient. Thus, ShinyGerbil was born.

Back in D1 you either hacked, or you were Legit. so I was ~LLC~Legit_Matt. And then over the years whenever I joined a new clan, I just threw Legit after the name tag, since that's what most people called me anyways.

Hm mine is boring

When I was a kid I was always fascinated by magic and fantasy stuffs. The coolest word that I could find that was related was "Mystic" (it has a freaking 'y' in it!!!). But the word itself sounds so clunky when you say it, so I shortened it to "Myst". Then I realized that the nick might be too common, so I looked around my room, saw my history textbook (was studying Feudalism at the time), realized that "Lord" worked well, and added it as a word that signified my awesomeness to the end

It's stuck ever since.

Found a picture of the heavenly dragon, Tenryu, in a sketchbook at a local tattoo shop in Okinawa, Japan. I eventually had it tattooed on me and then used that name as a bnet account.

I used to have yu-gi-oh cards and one of the monsters was called dark master zorc. That name was too long so i made my id be king_zorc, but that looked kind of gay so i switched it to king_zork, but that still looked gay. So now i just use the name ZoRk which reminds me of stork and stork is awesome.
