Utafar wrote:One fine day I was looking for someone to play risk with but there was no one to be found. then I searched the internet for a free online multiplayer risk game and thats when I discovered conquer club. shortly after I was creating my account just as my little brother was finishing watching star wars episode 3. he was so excited about the movie he was ranting "Tyler were you watching!?! my favorite parts were when they were fighting on Utapau and Mustafar!!" he found out what I was doing and whined to mom telling here to tell me to let him make the name. and unsurprisingly he fused two planets from the movies together

[(Utapau - pau) + Mustafar - Musta] = Utafar

and now I just use it for most usernames

WFD = Winsted Fire Department. 336 = my employee # with the city of Winsted. Hence wfd336. I used to use my car #. (a number which defines rank within the fire service) but just in case I get promoted or demoted I figured that this way would be easier.

Ham · Post by **Ham** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 9:55 pm

Ham- I was trying to think of a memorable name on CC's sister site. And I was eating a ham sandwitch at the time.

CC's sister site : Lordoftheringsrisk. I know its not officially but its where 5 or 6 of us came from. Including : Dussle, Me , DEUSBELLI, and knight of orient. Along with countless guests.

"Knight of Orient"

Knight- for years now i have studuied about knights and the middle ages, warfare of that era has a grasp on me.

of- ???

Orient- land of the crusades, kingdom of jerusalem....and, it sounds good. the crusades are my favorite era of all history.

flipper1219 · Post by **flipper1219** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 2:15 pm

flipper - this is the nickname i was given by a co-worker. i tend to have alot of accidents. almost all of which result in a head injury. at the time he came up with it i had recently fallen out of the luggage compartments of two seperate 727's (we worked the ramp at ATL airport). during the same time period i had also totally out three vehicles over the course of about 90 days (1/month), one of which i rolled the truck and was thrown from the vehicle, another i was thrown through the windshield. he started calling me flipper because i always seem to land on my head and keep on going.

1219 - is the original anniversary date of my first fiancee and me. she later left for another guy but i had already used the date so many times that it just seemed overly involved to change it. (or maybe with all the head injuries i simply cant remember any other #'s).

on a side note even with all the accidents (the list is much longer than this post) i have never broken any bones.

hitandrun · Post by **hitandrun** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 8:28 pm

Hitandrun is the name I DJ under. It comes from a JA tune that mentions a rudeboy called hitandrun. (It's one of the courtroom tunes, he is being sent down)
