The story behind my nick:

My War3 ID was originally Wargazmo, cause I was a fan of the movie Orgazmo and I thought it was a funny Warcraft variation of the word. Then in WoW I rolled a Warlock who was a gnome engineer so I thought I'd change it to Wargizmo because I was a Warlock who liked gizmos. Because Wargizmo was more unique than Wargazmo (of which there are a few other people who use that handle) I decided to stick with Wargizmo for all my other games since.

i currently play as drool in starcraft, because i wanted something shorter and less german than schnibbel. in one daily, day9 said something in the likes of "blah...as i happily drool all over my webcam..." and the word totally cracked me up. it also fits because i tend to occasionally drool when i'm laughing.

2 reasons:
1. I forgot the password to my old account(didn't really use it, so that's probably why I forgot) and the e-mail no longer existed.
2. Hot_bid in the APM thread(it was titled "NOOB QUESTION!")
I'll call Nada.

I was sitting with my family, watching Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, feeling kind of down. I was in seventh grade, I think. At the end of The Two Towers, things do seem to be getting a bit cheerier for the fellowship, and Sam says (about how things seem hopeless):

"It's just a passing thing, this shadow"

Stuck with me. I hoped that the shadow would pass, and I'd break out of my depressed teenage nonsense. I did.

I like nukes.

I don't even play Terran but when I used to random I would try to incorporate a nuke into my play every time I got Terran.

Well I have several nicks but I´m starting to get bored of them all. One that has stuck though is Billy. Which came from when I first started playing cs 1.6 and I was Billy Bragg ingame from the singer/songwriter. Then I joined orions and all just called me Billy so that was my nick for many years. After perhaps 4 years I watched Tsubasa Chronicles and changed my cs 1.6 nick to Orions | Hyuu~ which can be further explained by
. Everybody I play with online call me Billy though.

Then when sc2 beta came I was thinking of Hyuu~ but I couldn´t have ~ in the nick which just made me go with Zetsubou that I heard in some anime right before. Also when that got busy I often go with Zetsuboux which makes it somewhat french. And on the phase 2 beta I went with Natsu since it was so damn hot and I watched Fairy Tail minutes before logging in.

It first started as (Starg) Because of star gate the T.V. show, it would continue in middle school I used to play this game called subspace(now continuum) and I still used the Alias (Starg). I made a transition to CS 1.6 where I still kept (Starg).

About 1 or 2 years ago I decided I wanted to try something else I felt that "Starg" was not doing it for me anymore so I put the name backwards!!! NOW! Starg = Grats.

MIND = PLEASED


Oh SHIT ! I remember Continuum ! That was such a good game !

omg. same. exact. reason.

what a coincidence! :D

my name is changed now but before it was "hp.Methos"

now i use "Crono" (it's the main character's name from Chrono Trigger, which is the best game ever). Someone on TL from 2004 has "Crono" already, so I had to use this name.

My real life first name is Barett, and its unique. So whether or not i'm gaming or in real life, people call me by my name XD. Oddly enough it has nothing to do with Barret from Final Fantasy 7, or the Barrett .50 cal sniper rifle.

Keltanokka is directly translated to "yellow beak" in english but it is more commonly understood as "rookie". And since I name my first account for any game by this name it actually makes sense

Was a character I always created for myself on the smackdown wrestling games, heavily inspired by Ryu Hayabusa from the DoA and Ninja Gaiden Series. Been using it as my online handle for 6 years now.

Did you look up the meaning of the word before choosing it,
as Zetsubou means despair in Japanese,絶望 which i guess is pretty cool none the less, just wondering.

Zerg is awesome and powerful.
Pi is awesome
zerg +power + pi (3.14) = zergpower314

In Starcraft 2 my SN is NekoBasu, because the cat bus in Totoro is awesome, and zerg is neither awesome nor powerful anymore , and since I'm japanese, translating cat bus into NekoBasu seemed logical.
