In need of a new name and in game purpose
« on: September 29, 2008, 09:36:46 PM »
I'm no longer with the A8's and A8TOOL just won't work for me anymore. I've been spending most of my time in Mid War since the beginning of the month deciding whether I should find a new squad, start one or just give it up all together.

I chose my old name because I knew I'd be using old AOL AW to AH 1 experiences learned to help whatever squad it was I joined. Those were some good times hanging with the Rangers and later with the newly formed MAW until I left in 02. It seemed back then there was a higher respect level and teamwork was King. For now I'm undecided if I just want to continue flying around busting up MW hordes or get back into the base taking aspect of the game with an LW squad. Either way I'll be needing a new name and purpose for being here.
 
I've been back for 14 months and over the last ten I've seen the word tool being used more and more. It turns out it's an OLD slang word from the  20's or so to describe a fuddy duddy or jerk off. That particular meaning never crossed my mind when I chose it, it just sounded good and thought it might fit me well. I wonder if it's getting any use outside of this game anymore.  I was gonna use TOOLS  but maybe it's a better name for a squad. :rofl  I know a lot of you guys could really have some fun with that one.

Anyway, I need a new name and possibly even a new country to T00L around in  :)

Who's doing what and where? Jumping around MW's been fun but maybe there's something else out there.





Hummm, after proof reading this it looks like I'm in for more trouble than answers from the you know who guys  :devil  :furious  :t   and knuckle heads :lol
 
I guess I'll weather out the approaching storm and post it anyway

Pick a name, don't announce it.  Country hop for a bit to get the feel for the game all over.  Bounce from bird to bird.

See how it feels, and if you feel the need to let the world know the new name, go for it.

Then again it just might be a chance for a new start with no baggage.

You've had a call sign for a long time, would be a shame to lose it totally, perhaps you could make an anagram of it. There's not alot to your name so loot or loto. As for Squads from the little I know of you due to my short time here, engagements in A/C's I've had with you, 200 chat I've seen, I'd have to say you should sort one for yourself as then your disciplines could be instilled to your members and a new face of old may be bought forward to the AH arenas.

To many letters but KidSmack works 


It's good to read the replies, gives me a lot of options. Not so much as in the name I chose but who to hang out with and what some of the squads do. E2 helped me out a bit.
