Found a website that translates your real name into a pilot's call sign.

My name = MotorOil

Ok, works for me, easy to say and recognise.

Don't ask me for the website, this was several years ago.  I think I've been using it since 2001 or 2.  My last call sign no one could get it right.

Lt. C D Miller
VA-163, Saints
died in the Oriskany fire Oct. 1966.

My father in law I never knew.

As I understand it he was given his first assignment to a carrier after training and upon arriving was told about the huge bats that inhabited the hanger deck.   Off he went looking for them.  Not long afterwards he got tagged with "Seabat".

Started out as MDJOE in AW, someone already had maddog, always typed my name as "Maddog Joe" in all the games that ask for one. Was in the 444th Air Mafia up untill a couple of years ago when I took a break. When I came back, well I was a "Fugitive"  :D  from the Mafia.

Oh, where to begin...

hub7
 When I started AW, it wouldn't let me have hub, so I added the 7,    having an unhealthy fascination with the Mazda RX7, of which I have owned 3. Since then, I've been Hub7, hubs7, hubs, DoWhub, UShub, hub, or some variation. A truncation of my last name, I've been "hub" to pretty much everyone but my family since grade school. It's easy to remember your own name, even when drunk!

My assorted other GameIDs

Gunfodr  
 Gunfodder. After cancelling my first AH account, I came back with
 no illusions as to my role in AH, and embraced my fate.

name
 After cancelling my account, and coming back yet again, I'd temporarily exhausted my creativity, and wasn't aware I could get my old IDs back with a simple email.

mittens
 "my cats name is mittens" Ralph Wiggums, paste eating Simpson's character, that makes me snork my beer out. Coming back late on a sunday, and initially planning to get hub unlocked the next day, after seeing the responses it got, I kept it for a while.

Bldninja
 Bloodninja. Google that one.

Furboll
 Just to piss Furball off.

I think that's all of them. :)

Leviathn

Named after Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan.  You can read about it here.

The particular quote I had in mind when creating the name was this one: "I authorise and give up my right of governing myself to this man, or to this assembly of men, on this condition; that thou give up, thy right to him, and authorise all his actions in like manner."

Basically, everyone renders themselves equal to one another by becoming unequal to their ruler.  Deep, I know.  It's a political geek way of saying I'm gonna own you.

-- Todd/Leviathn

I'd list my IDs, but AH forum server does not have capacity to deal with. Next time maybe...
