Real name/forum handle?

LewiePLewieP Registered User regular
edited August 2008 in PAX Archive
Will you be going by your real name or you forum handle at PAX?

Me? I have it pretty easy, I will introduce myself to people as "LewieP, but just call me Lewie"

My name in any tournaments I decide to enter will be LewieP, and my badge is my avatar with LewieP under it.

    Aye, it sounds like "VT" has stuck well enough that I'll gladly go by that handle at PAX. =)

    I haven't been active at these forums long enough to lend my handle much bearing, so I'll be introducing myself simply as John. Maybe a pin with the moonsnail, but that would be the extent of it.

    I guess that I will be going by my forum name, or even just Qs. But those who listen to my podcast will know my actual name. and years of using that name mean that I will still respond to it.

    Plus, I actually know Moe's ACTUAL name. (Note: his last name is not Fwacky)

    Real name: Ian.
    It's gaelic for my dad's name (john).

    People can call me that or any variation of "the dead parrot," or "masterhelios." including "dead," "parrot," "the parrot," "dead guy," "helios," "MH," etc. I don't really care.
    I haven't been here long enough to be known by my forum name, but I'll go by either Vinny or Alias. Or 'that guy that told me they were giving away beta invites to Star the Wars Force Unleashed at the Sony booth so he could take my spot in line at (insert food vendor here)'.

    That'd be awesome if there was actually a food stand called that; "[insert food vendor here.]"

    Not an avid poster as well... but you can totally call me by my Gamertag... or Kyle (not that original of a name). Or you can just shout something... that works too. I'll be the tall guy, standing next to the REALLY tall 7 foot guy, standing next to another tall guy who looks suspiciously just like me, standing next to a tall girl. Holy crap... they sure breed em tall in Canada huh? Yes, yes they do.

    I go by Whytmage. My real name is Jer, or Jeremie. But if someone yells "WHYTMAGE!", i'll turn and look.

    If for not other reason they just yelled a final fantasy class in public and in mixed company now look like a retard. :D

    Most people around PAX/IRC call me 'Turtle' (fine) or 'ET' (meh) but those who know my name will get my attention more reliably with it.

    I am so glad that nobody around here knows my older nicks/handles.

    This accidental handle I have will hopefully not be used. Real name is Andres or Andy for the Spanish impaired. I think people online started to call me Ari or Arik and that's when I would say "just call me Andy."

    I'm one of those aforementioned Matt's. Since there's so many damn Matt's where I live I either go by Robbie (my last name is Robinson) or foof (my g/f's fav nickname for me, and it's a long story how I got it, buy me some booze and I may tell it to you :winky: ).

    But as far as PAX goes, I go by the short hand of my handle, Yosh.

    And woe is you, Andy, for going the XKCD route and picking a handle that is nay unpronounceable :P

    Well my handle is rather boring as I pulled it out of my ass when creating an account name for Blizzard. I put Cynder as in Cinderella (one of my fave fairy tales) and Cyn from my name Cynthia. My closest friends and my family call me Cynni. But I will answer to any form of Cyn. :)
