My ID was simply something I came up with as I was staring at the account creation screen for my first ICCup account.

When it comes to online alias' I generally just use my actual name, but of course, I needed something cool for SC

My friend Ye-Chan gave me the nickname DDRProtoss for reasons unknown (

) but it was taken, so I ended up combining my Polish last name Radlinski (Rad) with my grandfather's air division No. 301 Polish bomber squadron. Now that I think of it maybe I should combine the two to make RaDDR301.

I can't remember... It's not from the 300 though. I remember being kind of pissed when the 300 came out because everybody started assuming I got my nick from the "this is sparta!" line.

My last name plus a backtick for some flair. This came about after realizing my previous IDs were something that I didn't want people to call me IRL.

theron means hunter in greek. the gentlemen in my ROTC platoon learned of my annoyance to loud noises when we were the OpFor in a field training exercise. Hunters hate noise, I hate noise, and i didn't want to name myself after a BW map so i was suggested by my best friend who is an avid gears of war fan.

No, but it is quite odd that my dad's name happens to be Peter.

Well my name actually came with my fascination of elite snipers (not the actual like killing people but the on the spot calculations needed to make the shots from a mile or so away.) like having to Compensate for the air pressure, humidity, and the Coriolis effect (the earths rotation). So with this fascination i always played a sniper in all the fps i used to play and ended up playing the sniper role for my counter-strike and COD teams.

The T9 actually was just something random that i added because just sniper would surely be taken. But people started thinking that it stood for Tech-9 like the pistol that can be easily modified to be automatic and that sounded cool so i just rolled with that story for the t9 part from then on =)

and thats the story behind my ID

I liked a character in the manga series Slam Dunk, and he had the nick "Wild Monkey" in Japanese, which is 野ざる (no-za-ru) My brother accidently misspelled nozaru to nozaro, but by the time he found out I didnt want to change it. "33" is based on our Fighters Anthology "VF-33" squadron back in the old days

Back in my CS days I wanted to start a clan, and being that I was like 12 it had to be cool and different, so i made the clan tag [sHARKey]. The capitalization for "hark" because we had just read a shakespeare play in class and that word was kind of stuck in my head. My id with the tag was always [sHARKey]ANTI-MATTER. Yahoo mail did not allow brackets for a username and there was a character limit, so thats how I got my abbreviation of sharkeyanti, and I still use it as a username for the less serious things I do.
