C.r.e.a.m
All other good ones were taken... obviously...
BB_MrGrimm picked mine when I changed it from SirRoy.
A psaltery is a middle ages musical instrument, kinda like a harp. I prefer the hammered dulcimer but that didn't sound right as a name. I've also been known to play native american and irish flutes, saxophone, and doumbek (a middle eastern hand drum.)
Need I explain?
Yes.Quote:

I have used Wimpy since I started playing a play by mail game, Duelmasters in 1984. Most players have macho team names. I choose names like Wimps of Doom, then kick their ***. Now I am the wimp and get my rearend handed to me most of the time. Must be my advanced age.
Mine was a name change once some friends in game (Paule, emberleigh, dris) decided to call me angelbuns:)
my name has 2 parts. the first part showing that i absolutely love grek mythology however greek or greece didn't work for me.
the first thing i thought shortly after that was THIS IS SPARTA! so my name became Greek_Spartan
Initials duh
Oh. I see. Pretty cool.Quote:

Before chatting in settlers, I used to chat in IRC on an #indiana channel in the 90's. I lived in Indianapolis and just north of this is a town called Carmel that had all the snooty pretense of being rich without actually being rich. So I would troll them without mercy in comedic rants that would make Castro proud. My handle, just to frost their rears, was TheAntiCarmel. That is a bit long so everyone just called me TAC.
Few years later, I join the Navy, slap a navy on tac and voila! navytac.
Also works because before I was in the Seabees I was in the fleet in combat electronics, subset of navy tactics. Thought of changing the name, but I like being buried so deep in google results for actual navy tac that nobody will ever find me. Muahahahaha
Bro, died a few days a go, so I took his name.
I've played a game on and off called Warhammer 40K. The table top version with terrain and miniatures. Although my army of choice is Chaos, I was still inspired by the aquila from the Imperium.
You can see a picture of the aquila here and more about Warhammer 40K if you're curious as to what type of game this is.

Aquila is Latin and Italian for the word Eagle. Eagle being a bird has feathers. Since my first language is French I thought it only fitting to have a French last name so I translated feather to Plume.
Et voila, we now have the name Aquila Plume.
Ahh, Warhammer 40K. Great game.Quote:

I used to drive a transport truck, and there was more than one 'Scott' working with the same dispatcher. My truck number was 1470, so I used that to identify which Scott I was in communication with dispatch. When I started getting into online, setting up email, etc, etc, (at first to keep in touch with people back home while I was out on the road) I continued to Scott1470 as my name/identification.
It was a day like any other, a regular summer day. I walked out my wizard tower with my staff at hand. The occasional gust of wind hit me; a warm yet refreshing wind. Somehow relaxing seemingly. As the birds chirped and the wild life roamed i started strolling down the dirt path into the village. There i met this awkward man. kept saying something about a "Quest". i ignored him at first seeming that there are always these type of people talking crazy in the streets. so i jumped on a carriage back home. I dont know what i was trying to lead to with this so i just chose Cuddle-Bunz cuz its the name i use on Xbox Live lol
I used to play a lot on a site called Gaia Online. The fighting was fun because the monsters were sometimes downright silly and for dressing up my avatar. My user name, Cerridwyn Morgana, was slightly too long for Castle Empire (as TSO was called in 2/2012). I despise underscores and they don't allow spaces so I dropped the Morgana and added the Lady. I only found TSO when I answered an offer for free Gaiacash by reaching level 17. Since joining I've become friends with 2 people from HRM and now know of a 3rd. ; )
Yeah I found it when pogo.com had offer for free gems if I made it to lvl 17, haven't been back to pogo but yippee lvl 50 now. :)Quote:

Before coming here I was heavily into a PvP fighting game, EpicDuel. It allowed you to have up to 6 characters. Everyone had mean, nasty sounding names for their characters. I had three characters, and was preparing to start a fourth. I had a name and class all picked out. Then I ran across an ad for TSO, joined, and it wanted a name. So I grabbed the name I had handy.
It's not exactly the most appropriate name, being a name from a game that is based on fierce PvP individual fighting being used in an economics based game with no PVP component. But it works, it's distinctive, and it's unlikely to be confused with any other players.
When I was around 12 years old, I was in Cali visiting my Mom. When I started seeing a bunch on personalized license plates. I came up with Injoyin, (7 characters), and told myself that when I get a Motorcycle, I would have a personalized plate for it...
Well I have a bike now, and a generic plate number to boot...
Needless to say, I have carried on the plate idea to an email address and many tags for forums, and finally here.
Nickname given to me by my 10th Grade Football Coach in 1978
Hello All.
So the way I got my screen name was back about 7 Years ago.
Everyday I'd be playing Rome:Total war chatting with Friends on Skype. Played as the Roman Empire, Went online with the Game and Picked RomanGodCamper out.
I picked the Roman because the Romans were very Strong and Conquered Entire Lands and there was mass numbers of them.
God because when they fought and conquered their enemies they were pretty tough to beat and always pillaged and expending there territories
Camper, Well, That's pretty much simple, When playing the game Rome:Total war, I'd camp my Troops outside of the Village or City and make them Starve to death. I'm also a Camper in other games well I hoard resources and stuff. :)
hence, RomanGodCamper
My name is from the Iliad and i always use it for combat games. He was a hero at the battle of Troy and friend to Ulysses. But now that i looked it up it was actually spelled Diomed. Tis a sad day in the Kingdom
I started life as an ambitious tadpole in a pond, With a wagging furry tail I said "It is ON!!"... ~~((º>
Climbed from my abyss I rocked hard in the streets, Crushing all the fools with my heavy metal beats... (òÓ,)_\,,/
I was the monster that destroyed Atlantis with a ferocious bark, But I seen the error of my ways and had a change of heart... щ (°Д°) щ
But being a country dog I knew nothing of the city, I built Atlantis back out of water what a pity... ¯\(°_o)/¯
Seeing I needed a new island to call my home, I searched all the waters but I felt so alone... (•_• )
Then like a shiny diamond in a virtual sea, TSO Castle Empire island appeared in front of me... (^ºoº)>
Chat, trade, and combat it was love at first site, I was doing a snoopy dance and fighting every night... `·.¸(¬_¬)¸.·´
With a large group of friends and a little generosity, I no longer felt guilty while doing my killing sprees... (ò_Ó')
My destiny forever changed at the age Two Hundred and Twenty-Four, My name is Aqua-Dog... and the Legend... was Born! \(^-^)/
Lol
