Username?

since i'm starting this one off, I chose mine because destruction derby was one of my favorite original playstation games, when you enter !damage! as your name, it was used as a cheat to make your cars indestructible

Hilmarf is my old world of warcraft game character, and to brag a little, I played in europes 10th ranked guild before TBC.. The Dark Embrace..(got a job and could not play enough anymore...shame,because now they take all instances in one day ^^) I did full Naxx, AQ 40 etc (love the c'thun fight <3), still I loved my BWL gear! Full tier 2 on my paladin and Sulfuras... to have accomplished that must give me the right to sound like a douche and brag a little .. *blush* ^^ all in under 70 days played! xD oh, and I played on Neptulon, even made my own alt guild for my lock and had mc cleared, onyxia etc the first week or so And I was a douche and cheated with dkp, so I got full tier 1 and ZG enchants and tier 2 legs and helmet in less than 7 days playtime ;D

THANKS FOR READING! LOL! (I seriously hate people who says wow is such a waste, I have so great memories...shame they fucked up the game with the expansion..) And damn you americans for not letting us europeans use figureprints.com

Ok im done now... peace.. ^^

   Hey NA'ers,

     My screen name is short for "Wolf Balls"... sack was taken...so, I chose saq. My last name is Wolf, and I thought it would be cool to combine both! Anyway, that is my story and I am sticking to it. Peace...

Because every time I try to change it, people just call me OSG anyway. I have even joined an NES forum, and they actually filtered my username to say OSG in stead. So if you quoted me, in stead of "phil wrote" (or whatever my username was, I forget) it said "OSG wrote".

Why did I pick it originally? I donno, first thing that came to mind.

Was playing World of Warcraft, making a new character, couldn't think of a decent name. Had a toe infection so I had a bottle of peroxide on my desk and was just looking around my room for random words to help me think of a name and I saw the bottle and have been using Peroxide since.

My dad's name is Michael, and originally he wanted to name me Gabriel (before settling on Nathan).

If I'd been Gabriel then we would have been two of the Archangels...and archangels are badass.
The odd spelling is because "archangel" spelled correctly gets snapped up immediately on any site.

I'm sure someone here can order it on your behalf...shipping would be extra, but after $130, I'm sure another $20 or so wouldn't be a big deal

Anyway, I started using "the_wizard" in '97...couldn't  think of a name so I went with my favorite song at the time (the Black Sabbath one, not the Uriah Heep one...didn't hear the latter until a few years later).  The _666 came later when I kept trying to sign up on sites and "the username requested is already in use"

"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

psh, who was the scumbag that did that???

Roth is just the name I used for all RPG games on the NES back in the day. I have no clue why. I ended up using that name for D&D stuff too. When I first joined an NES forum, that was the first thing that came to mind.

MB is my initials, 7241 was a random number that I thought sounded cool way back when I was 13-14 and a sophomore in high school. I used to use this as a password at a few sites back when I was in my later high school years and into college (mostly school-related stuff, nothing major), then I eventually made it my username when I signed up for eBay on December 10, 2002 under that name. From then on, I've been active in online trading, and my username is the same at any regular site at which I'm registered (here, TGN, DP, GTZ, NESWorld, Famicom World, eBay, CtCW, gamengai, GameGavel, NES Forums, etc.).
