Such a copout! :laugh: Well, polymorph.co.za is my site (still under dev, won't find anything there), so polymorph may or may not be used in the future. photofiend is another possibility - mainly because I have been called that so many times in my life by long suffering friends and family upon seeing me pull my camera out :-O Come now boys - don't be shy. It's not a competition :rolleyes: [edit] Nearly forgot - for games I'm "smurf" :) [/edit]


    It's much better than the term "embedded," though. I'm tired of hearing about embedded reporters. That must be a lousy job, like having a career as a suppository. - Roger Wright

      One of the great things about CP (IMHO) is that we use our names, not wierd aliases to speak to each other. However, if you were to pick an alias - what would it be? :) (can you tell I'm winding down to a 4 day weekend :-O )

      What are you trying to say? ;) My particular alias is from a pet cat, though I have no problem using my real name - I just prefer that name because it's my online "identity" so to speak. It's the name of my website/domain and it's the one I use everywhere. It'd seem a bit strange to me now to start using my "real" name.

How awkward is this?:-O Actually, SMC are initials of my name, but since it's chinese, it's probably harder to read. I do have a "English" name, but I'm not too comfortable with it yet.(If you're curious, it's Nick) Megan Forbes wrote: However, if you were to pick an alias - what would it be? Being in the Lounge would limit this list a lot ;P, but I like "Mahdi'Gai", alias I used before the current one (fans of Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan would know what it means :) ) BTW, what weird alias would you pick? Notorious SMC

              As some may remember, I started at CP with my alias as Red Rocket. Other common aliases that I use are HonGiGi (Chinese for Red Rocket say my friends but I'm starting to doubt that) and whatever zany nickname my roommates have given me recently (recent nicknames include Kidney Stone and Amy Edwards). Anyway, I use Red Rocket a lot because it kindof stuck. I originally got the nickname during high school baseball because I was the fastest runner on the team and I have red hair. Ah, high school sports were good times.:) Brad Jennings "You're mom is nice. Mind if I go out with her?" - Jörgen Sigvardsson

                                    Yeah, that damned George Bush is putting us super heros out of business. I get a bat signal the other night, so into my nippled suit I scramble. The Batmobile is halfway warmed up and the signal goes out! I phoned up Chief Wigam (oh wait, wrong show, uh, anyway) asking what the hell is going on. Turns out George Bush had neatly stepped in and nuked the Bad Guy before I had even got the nipple clamps off the suit. Bloody hell, what is an honest, loner super hero like me to do? How can I compete with a trillion dollar backed man who can send nukes around the world with a press of a button? Makes me want to get a sidekick again, but I see Blair is already taken by, wait for it, George friggin Bush. I wonder if that Thatcher chick is still around? Next he will steal our trademark cape and nipple suits. Anyway, so yeah I work for Sun part time, my friends think I have gone with the dark side but I just show them my bank balance and they shut up and let me buy the drinks. Super heros have to eat too you know.

It is Bruce Wayne... oh wait no, that was yesterday, it's Peter Parker today. Oh wait, damn, is today Thursday? In that case it is Clark Kent. That's it. It is so embarassing at comic book conventions when I forget who I am supposed to be. Had some tight calls with the Klingon Ambassador fans, oh yes... :laugh: :rolleyes:

                                          One of the great things about CP (IMHO) is that we use our names, not wierd aliases to speak to each other. However, if you were to pick an alias - what would it be? :) (can you tell I'm winding down to a 4 day weekend :-O )
