sorry gonk, had to steal your idea... :D
It's kinda a weird story... I had to do a school project on a person from WW2, so I chose Rommel. I ended up getting a really high mark, and passed S.S. (my worst subject). So in short I chose this name to honour the great man who helped me pass my worst subject. :p :p :p
At first I was gonna use Erwin Rommel as my name but I forgot my password and had to start a new account.
Darth Rommel sounds better anyways don't ya think?

You guys chose your names? Jeez, I was born with mine. :p
Seriously though, I'm a twin. It was decided that the first baby born would be named Rhett and the second named Chase. I'm pretty glad I was the first. :D
As for my screen name, *copied from earlier post*,
Well, it all started a few years ago when I came up with Star Wars names for everyone in my family.* Boba Rhett sounded cool so I stuck with it and so it became the name I used and still use for everything.
* = sad ain't it?
Thus concludes this post. :)
I got Rogue Squadron when i was 15 years old (wow, it's been a while) and so i chose Rogue15 for my name at
www.roguesquadron.net) (
http://www.roguesquadron.net) WHICH IS THE BEST DAMN SITE ON THE NET YOU BEEEEEPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i also have 2 other names i use:
Garindan is one of them. I was into rebellion at the time and Garindan happened to be my favorite one to use in espionage, and without him, the imperials couldn't have traced the droids to the falcon.
Torment is the name of the my favorite RPG. It fits well, since I torment people in and out of games hehe. Many peeps have said the name is right for me. It's a mixed feeling to see peeps leave games because you join.
"Oh no it's him again"
-Said by serveral people on the zone and gamespy hehe.

Me and my friends were doing a SW parody over e-mail about three years ago. It eventually got really stupid, and it pretty much became spaceballs.
I eventually needed a counter for Yogurt, so OnlyOneCanoli was born. Totally original... and I like it. =)
its kinda funny canoli, i have a friend who lives in like deltona, he and i made that up like 2 years ago when episode 1 was out and we saw it in theaters...im giving you your credit and all, but we were talking about the same thing and laughing about it...its cool that total strangers have the same thoughts :)
Gonk - noun;
Power droid existing the the Star Wars universe, created by esteemed film writed George Lucas, particularly present in the renowned PC Action game, 'Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight'. These cute looking boxes with stumpy little legs are shown to have no general purpose in this place where they are so common, other than walking round proclaiming 'GONK! GONK!' and being a general nuisance.
see also- Target practice, annoying, stupid
H8er - abbrev. noun;
One who hates. Abbreviation of 'Hater'. Often used in conjunction with another word, ie- PretzelH8er, ZoneH8er.
Put simply, I Hate Gonks. It's corny, i know. my old alias used to be IH8Gonks, but I changed it.
I sometimes also use the alias Evolution, but that was mainly in tribes and tribes 2.
how bout the rest of u guys? :)
Whoa, that's pretty interesting pretz.
gonks idea? I suggested it!
anyway, mine is because its my nickname.
wardz
I am just an anime fan... :D
I used to use my name on Mplayer for my Klingon Academy clan....so i just use it on here.
Klingon Academy... is that the Unreal-based Trek FPS?
Nope its a 3D space simulation....take a look here (
http://www.3dactionplanet.com/klingonacademy/). Well those are some pics of mods anyway, but show the engine i suppose.

I picked this one because Alexander the Great (the Macedonian, you name it), the conqueror of the Asian Empire.
Here in Argentina is called Alejandro Magno, so (despite the macedonian-almost greek origin) I latinized it a little, so it came to Magnus... Magnum! He...
I used to be "Blort Lort Ort Rt T", but it confuses people :D
Use it at ICQ, though
Joe Solo was my charicters name in the SW role playing game. that was like 7 years ago, I just never changed it
yeah canoli...
and i didnt just lie either...im for real ;)

I use Jackal because it sounds similar to my last name (Jacques).
However I sometimes go by the name of: ComradCanuck... don't ask me why. Even I'm not sute.
I was playing JK one of the first weeks it was released when I picked up my name. I was taunting some other would-be jedi and I just happened to be slaughtering him everytime he'd respawn.
He said something like, "There's no escape from you..."
I said, "Yes.. you are correct. Zero Escape"
Then I changed my nick on the spot to "ZeroXcape" and it stuck with me ever since...
Now that is probably one of the most interesting stories (and coolest) :)
It's like a whole history and stuff! Most impressive... ;)

Isn't there a member Canucklehead?
I don't really remember. The first time I used this name was in a story I was writing, about 5 or 6 years ago. It just popped in my mind I guess (yeah, my mind is weird like that). I've used it as my online name ever since.
im never telling you my secret... no one will know the how to pick the best name...
*(evil hysterical laughter)* hehehehahahahohoho ohhhh, hehehehehehe.....
Mine's too cool/tight (pick your generation)
i know the secret! from this day forward i shall call myself.....
MetallicaFanIan
:rolleyes:
I don't get it? :rolleyes:
j/k... ;)
You should worship my name.
Love my name.
Be with my name.
Lets see, a long time ago (on this planet, duh) I was playing Jedi Knight in a computer camp I went to. Then, Shadows of the Empire came out, and I thought he was the coolest. I added the 1 because...uhhh...I just did. Anyway, I was very good at Jedi Knight. People did not know I was Dash, and kept wondering who killed them. I liked the name, so I kept it. I use it on the Zone. I also have the name PunkBoy in other games (Half-Life Mods, Tribes demo) I got that name from my Tae Kwon Do instructor.
I was constantly changing my nick, so my mate got a random nick generator for linux and we combined a couple till we figured a cool one, i have also been known as
RHS_cereal_killer (go hackers!)
The_videosmith

Star Wars fan. Simpsons fan.
