Where did you get your call sign?

[Sn1p3r]

have a hard on for high powered sniper rifles.  The 1 and 3 were added just to be different.  Just so happened that when I started I flew bombers and I hit everything I released on..

[easymo]

 Mine is short for easymoney. A nick I picked up playing pool for a liveing in my mispent youth.

 I have often wished they would set up a CC account so that we could gamble. Ive seen a lot of "fun players", in pool.Wo were very good,fall apart when you set a hundred doller bill on the table. People have said they would like for a death to matter more. This might do it .

[Gman]

Heh Easymo, we'll have to play some 8/9 ball at AH con.

P.S.  Bring Money

[HaHa]

Mine was originally HaHa, that I used when I first got onto CK (aka WB now). I was so excited and happy to be playing the game I gave myself the happiest nick I could think of  

Sometime later people mentioned that there was a LordHaHa in germany during WWII who broadcasted to the allies (music/propoganda etc..). So I changed my name to stay in the wwII theme  

btw citabria how did you do that nifty "picture slide show" in your post ?

 Sorry Gman,  about 20 years ago,when I was working the road, I left a few grand out in San Jose. I promised the ol, lady i was gettin out of the game. Im to old now anyway. Eye,s are gone. Legs are gone. It will happen to you some day too .

[Revvin]

It came to me in a blinding light, flashes of lighting and thunder as the name was hewn out of solid granite as eagles soared high in the crimson sky and lions roared...actually some bloke in work reckoned I drove like a bit of a nutter so the name stuck and I've used it online ever since (was rev1 in WB then later revvin)..boring really but that first bit was as interesting as I could make it

[Gman]

Lol I'm knocking on wood already Easy.  You worked the road huh?  Did nothing but play pool and paintball for $$ for about 5 years myself.  My wife will kill me as well if I gamble on pool again.  

I'm still playing amature pool in the BCA/VNEA legues, and usually the team gets a trip to Vegas out of it, but that is now the extent of my pool playing.

As far as my nick, my first name is Garra, and most people had trouble saying/remembering it, so all my paintball buddies just called me "Gman".  Nobody even remembers my name I don't think.

[Saintaw]

Earned myself the Nickname of "Saint" in my old F4 Squad , when I cae her in the Beta there was already a "Saint", so since I was posting on the BB from the office (Shhhhhhhhhhhht!) I went for "Saint At Work  AKA Saintaw"....

Saw is the short for it, & is esier for my mates to type SAW 6666666 than Saintaw  6666 !!!

[Jase]

"JASE" was my childhood invisible friend. I got the name from one of the main characters in the cartoon "Space Ghost".   Now ya know

[Camel]

Faat was my old WB name until 2.1, then went with Shaker, but stopped playing shortly after.

Lost my password for my old name(Warnin) in DOA beta. I needed to come up with a nutter, so because I flew the F1 camel, Camel it became.

[-duma-]

My callsign was Lister after the character in the TV series Red Dwarf who is a complete slob with few redeeming features (It was a sort of rebellion against callsigns like Cobra, Viper etc). However, since I got the callsign Red Dwarf went downhill seriously and I wasn't much of a fan of the show any more - a pity, since every @#*&ing 13 year old who loved the show was searching for 'lister' on ICQ and messaging me 'Do u like Red Dwarf?' - About 20 people a week at one point, and I'm not joking! Also about this time I started playing Counter-Strike in the UK and found several Listers, which got a little annoying..

Anyway, since my heart wasn't in that callsign much anymore I needed a switch - I'd just decided to sign up for a pay account with HTC since I heard the Typhoon was coming out soon. I wanted an original name, and since I've admired cheetahs (Which, the fastest land animals, are pretty much like the Tiffie in that respect) I picked what had to be the most unlikely name to be found anywhere else on the internet - the Swahili name for cheetah, Duma.

Now I don't have 13 year olds asking me if I like Red Dwarf - I have people asking me why I named myself after the Russian parliament. Someone gimme a gun  

Oh, in case there are any other Counter-Strikers, due to my incompetence at that game I don't go by Duma (That's only for showing my incompetence in sims), I go by the name Mr.Snipey. You can spot me in Barrysworld or GamesInferno servers, somewhere down the lower end of the score board and constantly making jokes that no-one laughs at. Pretty much like AH  

[BD]

I used to be Salto in WB, because I flew and owned an aerobatic Salto glider for a number of years.  

When I changed accounts in WB, I picked BD because those were the contest letters of my new glider at the time, an LS-4.  Just carried BD over into AH.

Unfortunately, AH has become my only flying (and occasionaly gliding) since I let my BFR lapse last fall.  

[Aerotech]

Well, when I was signing up for AH I couldn't use any of the 15 or so nicknames I tried. I kept getting the "that nickname is in use" message.

Then my wife came into the room with our crying and fidgeting 2 month old daughter and said, " here, go see your pa."

So that name stuck.

Pa

p.s. I joined this board before I signed up for AH but didn't want to use the aerotech name in the game. hehe
