I think dead sounded cool to me back then or something.
My real name is Hajime, so I shortened it to haji.

I know I said no real names, but how do you write that? My last name is Kamisato, and it's "god" and "village" (yeah, abnormal way to write it, I know, but that's how my ancestors roll =P). What characters do you use for your name?

5HITCOMBO is actually my second account - the first one got banned. I got the name from watching some people I knew play that DBZ Budokai game where it counts off the hits in your combo - 1 HIT! 2 HIT! 3 HIT!... and eventually, after watching a bit, I noticed that they didn't put much room between the 5 and the "HIT!"... so it looked like "5HIT!", which I thought was hilarious. Thus, 5HITCOMBO was born.

ON_FIER came from NBA Jam, where if you made a bunch of baskets in a row without the other team scoring, the announcer guy would be like "HE'S ONNNN FIIIRREEE" and you would literally catch fire and get unlimited turbo. I laughed whenever I heard the phrase when I was a kid, and decided to internet it... and ON_FIER has been my aka since.

hey GI, by picking the name GI are you saying that you agree with the Grand Inquisitor, that you would do what he did if you had the option? Dostoevsky himself wrote in a letter to a friend that he was afraid that people would be more convinced by his Grand Inquisitor than by his little monk :o

Fuck that was a long time ago.

Using hiiaman[oob] on bnet partly because I want to prepare people for what will come and partly because it's funny to see how many people who doesn't get it. Well maybe it's not so obvious, but for me it is.:p

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.

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 mother is from Bretagne (sometimes called Brittany in English) in France (not from Carnac though), I do personally collect stones (not quite as large ones though ^^) and it is a somewhat unique nickname. At least I've never had any trouble registering as Carnac anywhere. Plus I like the sound of it. So yeah, that's basically the explanation of why I picked Carnac as a nickname.

Mines from me wanting a new name so I just name everything XCE such as XCE-Net as my homenetwork and stuff. Tron is the guy from the movie so I figure since I'm basically a person here on Cyberspace so I name it XCetron. Plus its original and sounds cool.

It's just been a defacto ID to use when making accounts on various websites. I somewhat regret using this ID at TL.net, now that I've become so active on it, haha. Then again it's convenient b/c pple dont have to relearn my name when I meet them in person
