Lupin_the_3rd · 08-31-2004, 09:21 AM

When I was, oh, say 8 or 9, I had a near death experience with a wolf in the woods. I was camping and had to take a piss, so I stepped outside of the tent carefully and walked to a bush or something. I was closing my eyes in relief, and when I opened them again, a Timber Wolf was staring me down. I was so scared, I didn't have time to think. I just dashed home as fast as I could.

A couple of years later, when I was 11, I was playing flashlight tag in the middle of the woods. I was hiding in a small outcropping of rocks and tried to slow the sound of my breathing. All of a sudden, I realized that it wasn't I that was breathing so loudly. I quickly jumped up and turned around and Lo! About a foot away stood a Timber Wolf. I quickly recognized the markings of its fur and realized it was the exact same wolf as before. Again, I dashed back to my home as fast as I could screaming for my friends' safety

Around the time I made this Account (I was 16), I was just walking in the woods for a bit of fresh air. It was 6 O'clock, and because it was September, it was starting to get dark. I started back towards the house, but heard a very loud rustling in the woods behind me. I listened carefully for a good 5 minutes. All of a sudden, a Timber Wolf dove out of a bush at me, going for my neck. I quickly rolled a reflex save and dove out of the way. As I was diving to the side, I noticed the markings on its fur looked vaguely familiar. Then I realized it was the SAME Timber Wolf as the last two times. By this time, you can imagine the anger I felt for this god damned wolf. I whipped out my machette and clutched it with the blade point down, ready to stab this motherfucker. I ran at top speed towards him, yelling an ancient Cherokee battle cry. I did a sideways flip off of a nearby tree for effect and dove at the bastard with the blade ready to tear him apart. His attempted bite missed my neck by mere inches as I plunged the mache deep into his body, most likely puncturing the spleen (which I hear is a very bad thing to puncture). As I jabbed it in and out of him, I locked my teeth onto his throat and attempted to tear the jugular. He shook me off like a wolf shaking off a crazed teen stabbing with a machette. He immediately jumped at me again. This time I was luckily. He tore out a chunk of my flesh a little below my neck and to the right. I simply laughed as I took the machette and cut him clean in half. My work here was done. I whiped my machette with the blood cloth I was carrying and departed.

The way my name came from that is from the Latin root of Lupus, meaning Wolf. This, I changed to Lupin to look more like a name and all around cooler. "the 3rd" signifies that it was indeed the 3rd encounter with the wolf that was the encounter in which his life was ended.

It was only until recently that I noticed the odd coincidence of an anime having the same name.

**zajac** · 08-31-2004, 09:30 AM

My name... Maybe not as complex as Lupin's... Because I'm not even close to as smart as him... My name comes from the Polish word for 'Wild Rabbit'... Yeah...

fusi0n · 08-31-2004, 09:34 AM

uh I just thought if it one day when I was playing CS.

esupin · 08-31-2004, 09:36 AM

I got it from a Jet Grind Radio graffiti

**zajac** · 08-31-2004, 09:43 AM

HAHAHA... Jet Grind Radio is old skool... Jet Set Radio Future is the way to go... lol

Dreamcast... Pfff...

esupin · 08-31-2004, 09:51 AM

Hey- I happen to still play my Dreamcast. I plan on getting GBA SP soon once it dips under $99.99.

**Spazzbite** · 08-31-2004, 10:17 AM

Um.. I THINK it was because a good friend of mine called me a spazz when I was in a bad mood, and I guess I took offense to it, so I bit him. Then I thought "spazz.. bite.. spazzbite... oh cool!"

Then I saw CKY2K =\ Luckily my nickname uses two Z's

Hooray! But for which reference?

Either way, I think esupin has truly won the thread by getting his name from a Jet Set Radio tag. I am very impressed. Or jewpin with "Felix J. Awesome".

Regardless, zajac lost hardcore with his Dreamcast comment...

Actually, it was Jet Grind. I have never played Jet Set, as the newest hardware I have is a Dreamcast.

Afrobean · 08-31-2004, 02:41 PM

My username has loads of importance. Back in fifth grade we thought it would be a good idea to form a gang. This gang however was fighting on the side of good... but still using gang tactics. The name of the gang was Lethal Beans and everyone in the gang had a bean name of some kind. I got AfroBean, because my hair used to fluff out and people thought it looked like an afro. Back to the gang thing: it didn't last long; within a few months of inception, we were forced to disband by the administrators of the school. About a year and a half ago, I decided to recreate the Lethal Beans as a skate team, but that fell apart quickly. That is when I started using Afrobean as my internet handle.

On a side note, I thought of making this same exact thread, but I was just plain too lazy to do it.

Tsuguri · 08-31-2004, 03:34 PM

A looooong time ago, when I started playing Frequency, I made the name Sword, because I have a scar on my left shin that is shaped like a small sword. Then, before I went online with Freq, I decided to add DJ in front of it, hence making it DJ Sword. Since I was (am) rather good at playing AND mixing, the name quickly became recognized and heard of. Well, when I was online, people often just called me Sword if they knew me at all, because internet people are like that. Then, I got into DDR. I wanted to keep my name, but DJ Sword didn't sound right on a game that had absolutely nothing to do with making music, so it became just "Sword".

When I cam to FFR, I tried registering the name Sword, but it said it was already taken, which looking now, it's not. o_O Anyways, I had recently asked my asian friend what "Sword" was in japanese. He told me it was Tsuguri. I now know of the sword-play arcade game Tsurugi, which I'm guessing is the actual translation, but I'm not really sure. If Tsuguri is the real one, then cool. If Tsurugi is, then I have my own little twist on it. Anyways, it actually stuck, and I've used that more often for registering nowadays.

I also made up the name Pasta when I purchased my first Initial D liscense, because that's what my hand smelled like at the time. I've also used that for various things online.

On a side note, I've had the same AIM name, OnyxSnow44, since I had old AOL 3.0 on a Windows 3.1 system, all those years ago.

Kefit · 08-31-2004, 03:36 PM

Five or six years ago I needed a name for a quickling on Lensmoor (a MUD). So I closed my eyes, typed five random keys, and rearranged what I got to form Kefit. I really liked the name, so it kind of stuck. Now I use if for all social things I do online, from message boards to online gaming.

I use the name geoff42 (first name + 42, the best number ever) for everything I do online that isn't social in nature (accounts for ordering stuff, etc.).

The only other name I have used is Silaria (my stock female character name), which just popped into my head when I was naming a female wood elf in Everquest back in 1999.

My aim name is just Kefit + 42, since some bastard had already stolen Kefit ;_;

Jet Set Radio is the Japanese version of Jet Grind Radio (no Future in either). I thought Jet Set sounded better than Jet Grind, so that's what I call it.
