dwFirebolt99 was an old name. From my friend DWHELLHAWK123 (Clan DW). Firebolt from another friend (Firebolt on Bnet). I added 99 at the end of it. It just sort of came to me. My most original username was thunder000. Wanted the name thunder on Bnet but it was already registered so I kept adding 0's to the end of it until I found one that wasn't registered.

I've had a series of screennames, none of which are particularly memorable. I've only had two screennames on B.net, BurninZerg and Theoretical_H. Well, before I ever went on SEN besides the map tricks and tips thread, I had SCMDraft 2. I happened to be a newb, and wasn't very skilled at triggers or terrain. Well, I was making a map based off a dream I had, of a post apocolypse world i nwhich all human life in under the sea. There was a crew, although they probably had names, they're part of the things you forget in when you wake up. Well, the theme of the dream was a sort of loneliness, long periods in open, dark sea in a submarine, with two other people. Although it was a really cool dream, the limitations of my skill at terrain and triggers at the time, as opposed to my imagination, and my skill at the time, meant it never really got off the ground. Well, one of the opening parts was a science facility that was used for the creation of mutant animals and humans. Now, the computer has been operating for the past ten years, and it suddenly fails the moment they get in. The locking devices on the tanks fail. The computer warning was along the lines of "Locking devices have been undone. Subjects 28 and 38 are not accounted for." Later on, I was rping in a chatroom when I created the character "theoretical human number", the number I forgot. The character sucked, but I got a neat sn out of it.

I watched too much Ed, Edd, 'n Eddy when I was younger. The name "Ed" has stuck with me throughout years and it's still going. The threes come from something that...eh...happened at NASCAR (at least I THIIINK so). The 1 came from just being the first number. There's also a 3, 2 (two threes), and a 1 in 331.

So...uh...that's it for SEN/B.net Account #2.


My B.net Name IDontChat came from the fact I never chatted online. Nowadays, I sometimes blab like a moter.

T'was the year 2000 when I entered the world of the 'interweb'. I had never used a computer before because I had no interest in them. It was when I moved away from my old town when I started using computers.

In middle school I noticed some kids playing this 'game' on the computer that was a first person shooter and you could fly and it was the coolest thing ever type deal. Being that I love FPS games, I saw this game and instantly wanted a copy of my own. This game of course was "Tribes". A friend that lived close to me brought the disc over and we installed it on my shitty computer which hardly met the requirements. At first I put my real name as my nick but he was like "no one puts their real name you gotta think of something original". So I was like "hmm, ill be a killer". So I put my name as "killer" and then I was off playing some Tribes... But then something wasn't right... killer was just too... plain? So I was like ok, I'm not getting rid of killer so I'll just add some numbers or something so since it was the year "2000" I made my name "killer2000". I played with that for a little bit then one again I just felt that something wasn't right. I decided to do like a dynamic name like "hey ill change my name every year" type thing so when it hit the year 2001 I changed my name to "killer2001". But when 2002 rolled around I was too attached to the 2001 on the end and I've kept it ever since. A few years ago I changed it from "killer2001" to "KiLLeR2001" which looks way better IMO.

...and thats the story.

The best screen names are of famous things or places, lika jsut calling yourself Asia or something. If someone googles your name, there is no way in hell they'd want to go through pages of crap on Asia to find out who you are.

*I think

Those names are so uncreative. Oh your name is sword... wow, maybe my name should be salt so that when you cut someone, who happens to be named cut, I can irritate his cut by spamming him. See, that's not even funny, those names are lame.

Wanna go way back to when I first got SC?

I was like .. a little 8 or 9 year old and was bored and made all these little queer accounts like "RoCK_DuDE" and stuff, they were boring so I made the account "(S)ome(O)ne...." then my friends, my brother, etc. started a clan called B.M. and I was some crazy little kid who liked to burn things devil.gif so I made (B.M.)Toaster
Then I got bored with those two so I made WormsWorldParty because that game pwnz0rs you.
So at the time I had 3 accounts, and then (S)ome(O)ne.... and (B.M.)Toaster got stolen (n00bs wanting bots n all. aka I wanted a bot and someone tricked me into giving them my accounts. Soemone would be the best damn account these days dots.gif )
Then the name WormsWorldParty got boring, so I was asking my friend at my 12 birthday party what I should make my account, and he said "Make it farty" so I said whateva and my name was born.
>>> Finish this story with my first reply in this topic <<<

Also somewhere along the lines I made the account l)epressio because I felt like it.

So yeah, one point I had 5 accounts. (every event in that story after (S)ome(O)ne.... overlaps eachother)

Also I had an account ThE)UnKowN just to trick my friend into thinking I somehow had all this information about him tongue.gif

Then recently I had an account "Elmo]" (just "Elmo" was taken) so I could go around "É£mõ kñówš whê®é ÿöú lïvë!!"

[center]I bootlegged my name from the SC credits... but I also had my alter ego 'chrOnIc_AnArchY' I only really used that when I was felling pissed at 'society', or when I needed to get my bot online.[/center]

I can't really remember. I just remember I was a newb and I sucked at map making so I became 'Screwed'.
