by Sideous Prime
Ok, this crossed my mind late last night and I was wondering...how did everyone come up with their handle?
It would only be fair to kick things off so here goes...Sideous(spelling error and all) came from the Star Wars prequals aka Darth Sidious. Personally, I think it's a mean sounding name.
The word "Prime" obviously came from Transformers. The main inspiration being Generation 1 Optimus Prime, but there have been other Primes along the way too such as Rodimus Prime or Nemesis Prime.

Well, my friends always said I was a nonstop ass. Because I tend to like to say things for humor's sake and they call it 'assing off.'
It has nothing to do really with my play style or me wanting to have a 'cool' name online. It was really just a joke and I put it in at a lan party back in ut99 days and it stuck

I got the nickname "blaze" in high school because of my flaming orange hair.
When I started playing UT and Q3 in '99 and 2000 I always used "blaZe" as my online handle. (I capitalize the "Z" 'cuz I am a big Zorro fan.) However, I soon realized that "blaze" was too common for an online handle. I like being unique, so I added the "spine" from one of my favorite bands, SpineShank.

I have always liked your name Spine, one of the more creative ones I have seen. Most of the creativity you see with some players these days is putting f'ed up characters in there name because they think it looks really cool.
