If you had to change your screen name

Postby Symmetry on Tue Jun 26, 2007 5:29 am

Anyone else seen a screen name they wish they had? Or would you change yours if you started again?

I played a game against a guy called Mr Unbeatable. True to his name, he beat me, but since then he's still a cadet, while I've moved up a few bars.
It's a cool name, but it has to be a bit of a red rag to wave in front of other players.

I've always wanted to be a Tiberius, but it usually gets taken.

Any thoughts?

(edited to be (slightly) less boring)

I use this name because people called me wally from a very early age on. Not particularly glad with it but it doesn't come up very often. I sometimes use the name death on 2 legs (it's from a queen song) but mostly with FPS games.

'Bob the Ninja' is one. And for sheer awesomeness I don't think you can beat 'Bob the Pirate Ninja'.

I've used symmetry in a few places because it's not used too often. I did my degree on William Blake, so I love the Fearful Symmetry thing:

I know that it's pretentious, but the way this guy writes makes me feel more alive. That's what made me pick this name.

BUT- it's a #&%*** pain to spell

I also use this name when I play Halo, for the most part. I suppose it's my more competitive name, so I'd probably keep it.

I'm usually 'yeti' elsewhere - but some fucker had already taken that...

So I append my first initial (with an underscore cos spaces are bad)...
