When I started playing (3 years ago, I was 15 then) I thought that there would be no way to change my name once I picked one, so I wanted a good one (now I know you can just call up HTC and ask for a new one). I couldn't think of any names since every one I tried was taken: Hotshot, Ace, Maverick, etc etc (I was 15 I thought they were cool names  :D ). Sitting there thinking I noticed my dads Beer bottle sitting on the table (betcha you can't guess what kind it was!  :P ), and saw a name on the back. Never thought once about changing it.  :salute

It's actually what my Mates have been calling me for 15 years or more, kind of a contraction of my name and surname :)

When i signed into wbs2 the first time you needed 6 letters. I probably spent about half an hour trying to think up a cool name when i noticed an old t-shirt sitting on the floor by the desk that i had from my junior high skateboarding days. It was my JimmyZ surfer shirt. It was bright yellow with an old woody wagon with the surf board rack on top parked on a beach. My first name is James but everyone's always called me Jimmy, so i went with it. When they closed down the wbs2 arena i kicked around in wbs3 for a while but it wouldn't let me log in as jimmyz, so i was jimboz over there. Got bored and came here and i'm jimmyz again. I have no idea what happened to that shirt, probably lost it in a move somewhere along the way. :old:

coupla days into my 2 weeks and I happened to run into a low lanc in my Hurri I, used all my .303 blasting away at its tail with not much effect then remembered a BoB story I'd heard, so grabbed a little alt and dived on its tail using my wing to slice it off :D  did a little googling and found the name of the pilot so ...

Well , When I teach some one to shoot I try to take the Flinch out when they pull the trigger by adding fake rounds so that give me the idea of flench that I took because the right way to spell it had been taking .

Well, I'm a member of the Sky Knights squad, hence the "SK", and, my first name is really "John".  That makes it easy for me to recognize that I'm being spoken to when I receive a check 6, etc.  Not very original, but easy to remember. . .

I have no clue what R-105 means. The game was set up by a friend of my daughter on our home computer a few years back. I took the game over  and just kept the name.

You stinkin RAMMER! LOL!  :lol

Actually RT, that's pretty cool. I remember that exact story, having read that account on Geoff Nutkins' website. I have a bit of his BoB artwork hanging here in my office. My son has "Clifftop Chase" hanging in his room. The courage and absolute determination shown by those guys is difficult for the average person to grasp.  :salute


Mine is pretty simple, and a bit cheezy. Obviously I liked the imagery of the "grim reaper"....
