Forum name: Atryn, short for Atryn Westlake, totally made up as a secondary character on the Moral Decay MUD circa 1995 maybe?

Red X, well it came from teen titans <3 that show. Red X was not in the comics only the TV show so it kinda stood out.

I am a huge Stephen King fan, especially the Dark Tower series. The main character is Roland and he is a gunslinger. I just mashed it together way back in 1993 or 1994 when I first signed up for AOL, and have been using it since.

Contrary to popular belief I am not named after the singers.

I used to be a manager of a store named "Dixie Oil" One of my young patrons would come in with her dad and call me the "dixiechick" so I have used it as a handle in games online ever since.

When playing utopia I hated all the non-fantasy themed names, so I deviced the name Lythea (pronounced in swedish in a way which is really hard to explain in text) for my fairy province. I kept using names on the theme Ly-ea for other races too.

When I came back to earth it felt natural to device a name which a country could have and stick with that. Not sure if I nailed that theme fully, but after some 10-20 seconds Sifos (also swedish pronounciation but easier to explain, "si" as in spanish but with a longer "i", "os" as in the wizard of OZ) just felt good enough ;)

In 1996 I was a playing chess at a site called Playsite, I originally started as Archean (a geologic time period) but because I was already old by net standards (25!), a few of the kids in chat called me archaic. I liked that better and when I became a mod, I changed it and have used it ever since. I've had a few alias's, but its been my primary handle everywhere for 15 years.

I first joined IRC (back in 1999/2000) in order to arrange/hook-up for games of M:TG via "M:TG Encyclopedia" (using Sidestep, or whatever).

Everyone seemed to be picking all the awesome cards (Morphling, Masticore, etc). I decided to pick (one of) the worst rare cards every printed...

I've used it in every online game I could, ever since. :-)

My name is kindof an obscure refernce.. but back in middle school I loved watching WCW/WWF. Guy named Norman Smiley (that as far as I know never won a match) had a finishing "move" called the Big Wiggle. He danced and humped his opponent and typically lost immediately after doing it

Fixed that for you ;)
Only have to look at the flufffit he threw about the original GnR lineup getting into the hall of fame, rather than the slavish band of axl worshippers he surrounds himself with these days. Fact of the matter is, he's been the only original member in GnR for a LONG time, and TBH, Watching the others play with Myles Kennedy on the mic was a buttload better.

lol Drow... You're absolutely right. That whole thing around the hall of fame induction really made my blood boil. He needs a spankin', and he needs it BAD. (And after that, he needs to grow the eff up.)

kangaruu

Member

Aug 22nd 2012, 21:13:48

The Origin of Kangaruu -
It is derived from the Guugu Yimidhirr word "gangurru" refaring to the grey kangaroo. Sir Joseph Banks, botanist on James Cook's first voyage, noted the name of the kangaroo as "gangurru" when he tried to communicate with the Aborigines regarding the name of the strange hopping animal noted on Australia's shores. It is clear from Banks's observations and notes that the Aborigines consistently called the creature by that name.

The belief that the word means "I don't understand you" is derived from myth.
