my first nickname was 5t0rm... man was i 1337!
i topped that in wc3 with h3ll-5t0rm since 5t0rm was taken already

i decided i needed something new so i came up with raiz... i think i was watching stargate atlantis at that time and in the german dubbed version they pronounced "wraith" pretty stupid so i always understood something like "race" or "raze" or whatever, so i fiddled around with that

in any rpg like games i usually go with Xakosch for male and Sheebu for female chars

fliedlice was my id in the sc2 beta... it somehow refused to take raiz so i came up with something new on the fly :|

Used the same tag for years. Kevin is my name. 9 is my favorite number. Thus: KevinIX.

Total coincidence that years later, I'd discover a really cool dood named Day9.

Let see, I have a pretty big list.

When I first went online using Kali in 1998 my nickname was KingHillBilly.

Since then I've used.. KingHillBilly and KHB for short.

I've most likely had more names, I just can't remember them though. Here's the most I can recall from old to new.

Se95 (???)
TwiGGy (CS, started playing it in the beta!)
kinhad (CS 1.6, Graal Online, more...)
Zurachi (WoW)
LorenzoD (Xbox live, steam)
ElPokemono (SC2)
DeCPokemono (SC2)

Basically the motivation behind my current name was to have such a stupid name that it would be impossible to forget.

I joined a Stronghold playing community under the name "natehamm" a combination of my first and last name. Then i joined Gametoast.com a SWBF2 modding community under the name "Commander_Cody771" and my handle in the game was "CommanderCody". Then I started playing Call of Duty 4 and my name there was "Altair". Then Time went by and my name evolved into "TheLaw".

Cracken was the last name of Pash Cracken, A-Wing pilot in the X-Wing novel series. In my X-Wing vs. Tie-Fighter/X-Wing Alliance days, I was a pretty damned good A-Wing pilot. I could take on a TIE-Defender 1v1 and always come out on top.

Cracken was taken on AIM, so I added the Japanese -san at the end of it. It's been my user name in all games except for RPG's and MMO's.
