I joined a StarCraft forum in 2002 or 2003 to ask for mapping assistance. I couldn't make the nuking AI scripts from Emerald Placer work. However, I didn't want to be seen as weak or inept and I came up with Lord of Nukes. It was my first forum screen-name, I know it's rather lame but I'm known generically as LoN most places I go to in the Internet or Battle.net.

On Battle.net, I created a bunch of different accounts for different purposes. Every year I make a new account solely for 1v1s. This year's is Fiefdom, which was inspired by Kingdom. I thought Kingdom was an incredibly sexy screen-name but since it was obviously taken, I tried to come up with something suggesting a similar vibe. My backstabbing and UMS screen-names are IronJew and terRn_hIdraLIKs. I came up with IronJew with my friend on the spot, and I came up with terRn_hIdraLIKs trying to come up with a screen-name which would emit so much newbiness, nobody would suspect me as the backstabber. Otherwise, I end up using Lord.of.Nukes which was my account on the PGT, although I don't play as Lord.of.Nukes much at all anymore. I have some other random screen-names which aren't important enough to mention, most of them I randomly come up with and write down somewhere for future use, or I come up with them out of nowhere as with IronJew.

My name is Robert and one day, my friends started calling me Rupbar. Then I started using it on the internet, but because computers aren't very cool in real life, most people stopped calling me Rupbar. The ones who still call me Rupbar either knows me very well or not very much at all. Friends call me Rupbar because it's my nickname and some call me Rupbar without knowing that I use it on the internet.

My favorite music band is a Japanese band called L'Arc~en~Ciel, which means 'rainbow' (arc in the sky) in French. One of their singles is called 'Niji' which means rainbow in Japanese, thus it is a rather special song for them. I also really like it. :3

The z at the end of my TL name is because 'Niji' was already taken (I think I took it a while back but I can't login to it now >_<) and I have pretty much been a zerg player since I started SC almost 7 years ago.

Back when I was a tr00 TL.net lurker I saw a cryptic thread by someone in which he said things like "please stop doing this... I don't know who you are... etc" so I decided to make an accout with an evil name and post something stupid about him stealing my cactus.

I had a feeling that's where you got it from.

Back when the UMS Snipers was widely played and spawned several decent sniper clans (Id say near the middle-end of the Bald era), my handle was Useless_Ally. I chose that because I was a pretty good player, and it was a little mocking, a little sarcastic. I dropped _Ally, so its just useless now.
