What was the reason behind your player name? Mine came from recreational go carting with a bunch of buddies over 15 years ago. We were all trying to come up with either stupid names or something that sounded cool. I wanted something that instilled fear in my competitors. Lol. IIRC, someone had terminator, so eradicator sounded pretty close. And so it was to be. Please share yours.
Ps. Yes, I am back and doing good. But at a much reduced rate. Playtime has been cut by 80%. I will make another thread in the future on that. Hopefully sharing my struggles can help someone else.

"Thunderthighs" just seemed apropos for these stupid machines with their chubby legs running around.

I used to play chess on line and I needed a player name. I picked Heavypiece because the Rooks and the Queen are sometimes referee to as a “heavy piece”. My second account name is <G@M30V3R> because back in the day quite a few of the arcade games flashed “GAME OVER” on the screen.

My pilot name, Cdr. Crimmins, is a character I created in college as part of a shared world writing project I did with my friends.
He was high strung and unsuited to command. He repeatedly led his forces into one disaster after another but somehow survived through a combination of low cunning and blind luck. Later on he was discovered to have been infected by an alien parasite that caused him to make all kinds of rash and unwise decisions as it needed him dead to move onto the next phase of its life cycle.

Post by Munki on Aug 5, 2020 9:02:48 GMT -5
Been plying games for many years now with several war-type FPS being a favorite. Many people were making funny names so I came up with "Festering Groin Wound". Then, as I moved to a new game title, I would take part of the name and make a new one. I changed to "Uncle Fester", then "Monkey's Uncle" but wanted to play with the spelling so it became "Munki Unkel". I was born in 1969, so I eventually became "Munki69" on War Robots. Made a 2nd account and in another game, we would put "Lil'" in front of our name to indicate that it was our little account. Well it became my main account, so I am now "Lil' Munki".

Originally i was DeathViper, throw back to my MW3-4 days. Lame story, i actually had to battle for the name. I was in clan thunder wolf, so i was TW_Deathviper, well another clan had another pilot named Deathviper, and he had a meltdown. So back and forth we went about who had it first so he suggested we battle for it, in front of the clans, winner keeps it, loser changes. So we go into a 16 person room so we have plenty of witnesses for the damn name. After i obliterated him 5-1, he called it quits and changed his name. After that, i used my clanless name (Psychoviper) to torment him for a few months after.

The "Seven Chandrian" are the bad guys(probably) in one of my favorite books, "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss.
Someone [insert spoiler] was singing entirely the wrong sort of songs.

"Teraflex" is a suspension company that makes stuff for Jeeps. I had their components on my Jeeps back in high school but when I went to create my "Teraflex" email address back in 2000 it was taken. So I dropped the e in flex and I've been using the name for games, forums etc ever since. In this game though when I was new I thought you had to leave the PILOT in front so I didn't take it off. Now I am too cheap to change it in the game so it stays as such.
Always funny how stuff sticks like that.

This is a sebenza 21. A s35vn blade, titanium handle, gabbon ebony wood inlays. A construction that is perfection, perfect blade centering, excellent lock up with a satisfying clunk as it locks in place. Shaving sharp and easy to keep that way. Bought by me in January 2017 just a few weeks before I started playing this game. It's still one of my favorite pocket knives. It still makes it into my pocket as my daily carry on a regular basis. Not today though, today I'm carrying an old GEC cap lifter.

I have been using my IGN for over 30 years. It came from the D&D expansion pack DragonLance. My original name was just "Dark". Then I managed to make my way into the House of Lance clan. So from then on I have been DarkLance. But you all can just call me DL.

Originally I chose commandershotgun because I liked shotguns
I then changed to _FakeNews_ because it was funny and I always felt my imposing hanger (Fenrir, Invader, Strider, Behemoth, and a leech) got whipped easily, thus. Fake news.

Ima Badshot. A CYA when I have a bad game. Conversely, if I have a good game, pilots think I'm better than I lead them to believe. ?

I picked “Garbage game” after my Lvl 6 Griffin got hit by a Quad Mk2 12 Spectre in Silver league. Also this: Then Pix decides it violates the ToS after no issues for 2 years. So after a few more name changes, gold purchases, and refunds I have this name.

My name is Grega. Whenever I had to come up with a username, Grega was always taken. As I didn't want to be Grega176 I tried Grrrega and I use this ever since. So this is now my go to name.
When I was younger I used WonkoTheSane...

My ign is Rockts4u. I liked the rocket builds on Leo, Griffin etc when I started playing in September 2017. I still use Leos and rockets too, to take down newer/expensive bots. They get Triples and Rampages. :-)
