12 hours later we were still playing it! - no sleep had at all!

Unfortunately having all been sat down for such a long period and hardly moving we ended up with nicknames, Bad Butt Brian, Flat Arse Andy, Sore Bum Barry and for some reason I was Private Boils!!! and I have used that since that day - probably about 20 years ago?

DOOM on serial cable was KICK ASS!

No lag there

Well not too bad for most seems to fit Pretty good.....

I created my name many many years ago pushing over 16 years now...
JJEDSR1 ... pretty unique I think.. I had to come up with a name for one of the first games I ever played Tanarus, Quake, Delta force Land warrior .....so I figured why not just use the first letter of everyone in the families name hence .....J ( Joe) J ( Jennifer- wife) E ( ELyssa -daughter ) D (Dalton - Son) S ( Shadow - Dog ) R ( Rascal - Cat ) and the number 1 , just because I AM the BIG Dog ,, LOl !!!! so hence JJedsr1...... But everyone just calls me JJ but if you sound it out its JEDD-SIR-ONE....
So there you go I'm sure you will never find another one like it .. at least I don't have any issues with user names for games , So I just use the same forever seems like now.... No need to change it !!!!!!!

I created my name back in BF 1942. When my buddy brought it over for me. some of you may know him as commandopotski. It was the first PC game I had played besides the Oregon Trail lol. I chose Commando, because that movie kicked ass. and Timmy for obvious reasons. since BF3 EA has screwed me out of my original spelled name with their locked persona name, so I have been forced to go with C0mmand0Timmy..

anyways thats my story.

In 1942!!! Darn.. your old. LOL

H0U$T0N= Duh

I was from the Houston Area so there ya go!

I just have to say Oregon Trail was the bomb! Almost as awesome as Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?

Massive bump.

Vishnu dreams the world into existence in Hindu myth and is the subject of an epic back tattoo that will never happen because I am afraid of all that pain! Plus, Muad'dib was taken at the time?

Follow up. Nope, never been close to visiting India and nope, no ethnic ties. I just like good stories.

Follow follow up. Also known as Tao in my Crysis days.

I've been a Sci-Fi geek since I was a kid. Two of my favorite movies series is Alien(s) and Predator...so that is that. Over the course of many games I have had to change or add suffixes because someone had already taken "Predator" so I have done "Predator07", "VTX_Predator" (VTX = Honda VTX 1800 which I owned at the time), "PredatorNC" (I live in NC). etc... The current one "Predator09r" came about from trying to re-use the 09 but it was already taken?!? so I added the "r" since military phonics pronounce it "niner" anyway.
