Usernames and How we got them.

Just shooting the breeze

  • I was having a chat with TopKilla and we happened to get on the discussion of usernames. TopKilla is currently running a Tournament and because of this he gets to see plenty and plenty of names-
    But Subterfuge is a relatively New game and almost any given name is available to you for your choosing. So what made you pick the name you picked? We saw a few names that where just scrambled letters with some numbers thrown in and grew a little curious about this- I want to hear your stories.


    My name- Janitorial Duties was given to me by a friend in college. We had all decided to play League of Legends together and I was having trouble picking one out. The LOL Veteran gave it to me and it stuck.
    After this I have 3 different cleaning jobs so maybe it was destiny!

  • Way back when I was a wee lad, I watched GMod Idiot Box, some episodic absurd comedy made in Gmod on YouTube. Liked the show and liked a guy named Dr. Hax (who is basically HL2's Dr Breen screaming 'Hax!' and throws flaming CRTs at people.) Intially my username was planned to be DrHax, but I can't recall why wasn't it accepted, so I changed the 'D' into 'M' and it stuck.

    And that was 5 years ago at least. At least my username is truly unique; never seen it anywhere else.

  • Generally i use "thedryness" as my screen name in games. my names Paden, but in the last couple years all my friends have taken to calling me Pmoney. It was just sort of a generic nickname joke that stuck i guess. Now thats all anybody calls or knows me by. when i get introduced to someone its usually as Pmoney. So i just sorta went with it. When ever i leave a note for anyone i sign it P$.

  • Well... I guess my name is kinda self-explanatory. I am very good at math, and 9 is my fave number. That's pretty much it.

    I thought you had some sort of memorable experience driving over a small mammal on a highway :D

    My username is fairly simple - I came up with it a while ago (I believe when choosing a username for Minecraft) and I've used it ever since. I liked pandas and secret agents, so why not mash the two together and get pandasecret?

  • Long ago, I wanted my username for a different game to be vexed, which is defined as follows:
    (of a problem or issue) difficult and much debated; problematic.
    How ever that was taken, so I thought I'd throw in some artistic flair and a bit of l33tspeak and V3XT was the result.

  • Random, actually. Used "Myqpalzm" as my nickname for basically everything. I got stuck with it, because it's very fun to see other peoples mispronouncing the nickname.
