Aiddat
Ok I think the title explains it all. :) Aiddat is Taddia as in Nick Taddia backwards. A lot of you probably know that already 'cause my name is on my profile.

PS: If nobody minds, since new members should post here, may I or somebody else bump this every month or so?

n00b
 - Student
 n00b

I was feeling punchy one day and I thought "1337 n00b" sounded like the perfect oxymoron to get a few laughs. Well, peeps took it the wrong way, thinking I thought myslef an elite player. It had the opposite effect from what I wanted so I searched the site for just "n00b" and nobody had it as their nick. n00b has stuck longer than most of my former nicks. The one I used for many years was .=Tiberius=. but it wasn't a very catchy nick.

Well..to be honest, Liso came from nowhere, I just made it up, as I thought it sounded cool :)
First is was Liso'sia, but it sounded too long with my last name with it..
And Jowol is just my family name, of which I'm very proud ^^
Ooh and my first name: MerenweN, that's just my elf name ;)

I was listening to "Trouble" by Coldplay and it says something about "a spiderweb and i'm caught in the middle" and I liked it. So that became my hotmail address, and from there became my JK name. :)

 Nero

I used to have this name I hated after a while
and I was reading a book about the emperors of
Rome for latin class...
Nero is a bit of a nutty emperor who probably
burned down half of Rome for his own palace.
It's also a pencil factory and pencils rock.
Last but not least it's a burning program...
which supplies me with ... stuff

I was doing trivia in Tallepyon's channel one time (#ja-trivia), and a question came up which no one knew anything about. The hint system went t------, ta-----, so I randomly guessed TARPMAN. It was wrong, but sounded silly, so what the hey. My alter ego, Rytandus, is a little play on my RL name that some friends made up a few years ago.

Hehe, we've had a thread like this a while back, always a good topic for discussion though. Mine is from a Nintendo game called Gradius. I actually took mine from the Super Nintendo one, Gradius III, since that was the first on I every played. My alter-ego, KnightWhoSaysNi, I got that name from the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail. :)
