Where did you get your username from?

[Thrawn]

The person behind my name. Basically, I used to be good at thinking, and love strategy games. I didn't want to call myself Grand Admiral Thrawn, so I stuck w/ the shorter name. Everywhere else on the internet, I'm known as Viers, a name based off of the main character (Richard St. Viers) of a book entitled "Swordspoint" by Ellen Kushner.

Not to be confused with another officer of the Galactic Empire.

I always thought that avatar had something to do with Star-Trek.

Good ole' Radament was the creepy mummy in the sewers of Lut Gholein, from Diablo 2.

[Midnight_Carnival]

If I wasn't Midnight_Carnival (and Grey_Area), I'd probably have called myself "Awisemanonce" -just to see people quote me:

It would have looked great

Shoulda added spaces. Looks kinda bad without spaces.

(Unless phpBB doesn't support spaces, in which case, underscores pls)

[Hulavuta]

Yeah, I thought it was a mispelling of "Awesome Man Once (with an aaa sound)"

OHH!
I always thought it was Star Trek too... (cause of the avatar) ...dunno why.
So wait.... does SSD stand for Super Star Destroyer?

[Creeth]

My inspiration.

[Lord-Knightmare]

I got my username from:
1. I was from boyhood (7-10 yrs) drawn to the "Darth Vader" character in Star Wars, who was a Sith Lord
2. And I liked Knights and Dragons, as I had watched a lot of movies or read a lot of books about them.
3. One time I read a book called "Knightmare" and I liked the name.
4. When I was a child, I always dreamt of being a dark lord ruling over an entire continent
5. When I first signed from the forums I found out that "Knightmare" was taken, so I named myself "Lord-Knightmare"

phpBB supports whitespace in usernames. wesnothd doesn't. Hence, we use underscores here since...since some date.

Or periods, except the MP Server doesn't support these

You probably joined before I changed the username validation rules. Naturally, old accounts wouldn't be automatically fixed for various reasons.

Code: Select all

$regex = '[A-Za-z0-9_-]+';

Only characters from the A-Z, a-z, 0-9 ranges, and underscores and dashes, are allowed since then.

[tyler]

It's my first name.

[terakay273]

Terakay is the main character of a fantasy novel I'm working on, and 273 is my favorite number (I have no idea why).
