Why do you have that nick?

Well, it's kinda hard to explain why the Madbringer is the Madbriner, but i'll try.

The are actually three reasons -

1. That's my playing style. I more often than not play like i'm insane. I guess that suits me just fine.

2. Back in the Q1 days, i had a corny nick - Deathbringer. I dunno why, it's just sounded cool to me. When my internet connection was cut off then, i got reeeeaaaalllyyyy angry, and with it came decision to change that nick. After some intense thinking, i shifted first to Mad, and then to Madbringer. And it kinda grew on me.

3. Most people don't know it, but i have papers from my psychological exam that i have slight mental problems. Nothing big, like being a psychopath or something, but i often get terribly angry for no particular reason.

Well, that's the mystery behind my nickname. There is one other reason why i use it - it's practically unique.

Why do you have that nick?

i was first called Violently Calm when i joined e+... coz that was the name of my band i had with my mate www.myspace.com/violentlycalm

and then people started calling me violent and vio... so i switched between those 2 names alot.

then i left e+ for a month or 2 and tried to come back unknown.. but coz i am so talkative and i can't keep my mouth shut, people know who i am
i am called Apache just coz i saw it on a different game as someones name and i decided it was awesome so i stole it Winking

When i started to play e+ i had no idea for a nickname. Then i saw this Acid Wars (Tekkno event in Germany) Flyer on my Table. I liked the colours and so i decided to get Acidwarrior. In right down corner you can see my original nickname but now i am in *XP* and so i had to chance colours like the other clanmates.

-foksie|LoY-

been using this for a long time now, in a bit different forms.

it all started as me signing on arcades as FOX, cause of my sneaky style, and as an added coolness, cause my brother signed as NLO (croatian form of UFO). You know, Fox Mullder Winking

then i tought i needed a longer form when i first started to play duke 3d and q1 in multiplayer, so i used many variations.

one of them, Little_FOX, was a bit wierd, but i decided to take on it, and changed the word fox into a deminutive, the way you would do it if it was a croatian word. it turned into foksie. that sounded nice, and unique, so i used it for a long long time.

then one day i was helping a friend think of his own nick for q3. among a lot of nick one suggested by his brother was so uterly funny, that i couldnt let it slip by. Lord of Yogurt.

so it came to be -foksie|LoY-

(in case you wonder, the nick i inveted for him was snu3.14 (read snoopy for those who dont know math Winking )

later went on coloring my nick and i made it red-white. one combination of collors was really nice -foksie|LoY- cause the red letters spelled the word FEY. and when used only on foksie they spell FE the symbol for iron.

i liked that, so it stayed, until my nick got the DRT part and turned all gray Smug

P.S. The topic was arround before, but what the heck, its +1 post Smug

I am proud of spreading a pirated Excessive Plus version and claim to be the original author, yay!

originally hotwax ( a Beck song) no real reason, I don’t even like the song that much Happy

Changed to wax because I thought hotwax made me sound like a tit. Though wax
is then a slightly odd nick but I don’t loose sleep over it Happy

I was going to make up stuff like I’m called wax cause I can burn you or I’m slippery like wax, but that would be just b/s so I didn’t Happy

Ratz became short for ratzkoo,like some allready know,and ratzkoo is upside down for kooratz which means "male sexual organ" when pronounced in croatian,in this form its adapted to english style writing.I came up with it when I was invading croatian usenet groups couple of years back,where my friend had a nick zytzagoo (goozytza or guzica in croatian) which means ass.So I became ratzkoo,mostly cause I wanted something unique,and so far Ive achieved my goal,since I havent yet run into anyone using the same nick ,] Later it became ratz.
