As my handle here is pretty much my handle everywhere, during games however I use various versions of handle such as:Vikings:Leif Tazidude the Red tazi= Nickname given to me 12 years ago by District Supervisor as I was a Domino's Pizza store manager, and when I made pizza things would just "fly" and a cloud of dust and a blink later, poof 2 or 3 large pizzas were made! dude= Moved into house with 3 other bachelors after separating from ex 8 years ago. 2 of the other guys living here never knew my name for about 3 monthes, thus they always called me Dude! Pretty boring eh? but you asked! LOL

I like to play using a custom civilization--the Inca. I am typically involved in the diplomacy aspect of the game: asking for gifts, giving away friendly techs that increase my trade bonuses, demanding tribute. I also tend to make alliances, in which case my allied AIs are always picking up their phone and calling "911" to ask me to bail them out! So when you are in trouble, remember to call Inca911! |

I work in vaccine development. I used to perform a test to ensure that the only virus in our vaccine was the one we put in there. This test was called "Screening for Adventitious Viruses," Ad. virus for short. I performed this test for 6 years before bidding out to a new position; otherwise, I'd still be doing it! |

Not too hard to figure mine out. I live in Kansas City and my real name is Bob. I've been using it for about three years now on other boards on the internet and even use it as my handle on call in radio shows (one of which I even hosted for two whole weeks).BUT, (I've gotta lose that big but, that's all there is to it), imagine my chagrin when I applied for a Hotmail id and kcbob was already taken!! The nerve of some people. So my Hotmail address became kcbob49. I was born in '49, and was 49 at the time. Made sense to me, huh? ------------------

Comes from my original playing style, which was basically beat the crap out of every other civ till I ruled the world. I had tried several times to make it to AC but never did till after I started reading the posts here at Apolyton. Now of course, I play it both ways, beat the crap out of everyone WHILE making it to AC Just to know, I never actually use this name for myself in Civ2, I either go for the default name, or come up with something funny, cute, or stupid (or a combination thereof). I've lately taken a liking to playing the Mongols for some strange reason (go figure)------------------

My handle comes from years ago when I played alot of the board game "Stratego" by Milton Bradley. It's a sweet military strategy game. And the #1 ranking piece in the game is the Marshal(also called Field Marshal) I used to wreck all my friends, so I took the highest rank. Klesh is a name I guess I made up.....I played Stratego a looong time ago....not really sure where it came from. But the name stuck and I use it here.By the way, I'm not some racist looser trying to live out his homo-erotic Aryan fantasies via CivII. The name has nothing to do with Nazi Germany. |

Stratego, now there's a great game!Me and my brother had a copy, we even wrote down favourite starting positions. The field marshal was good, but as in CivII, there was also the spy... Think it's available for the PC too. Carolus |

Hello!
To Sten Sture: There are similarities between swedish and german. The german "stur" means "stubborn". Could be used as name, I guess.
My handle's my name. I don't need better memory, my computer does.

Well i didn't see my name on here before... so even if it was here it is again Last year (9th grade) in math class i had made a bunch of new friends, and i sat in front of one of my best friends. Being teenage boys, we were very perverted all through class. Well one day we were talking about S&M, and the girl sitting in front of me inquired to what it meant. As of that time i had an idea, but i didn't actually know the exact meaning to S and M (it's sadochism and masochism [pardon the spellings]), so i just told her to guess, acting like i knew the whole time. Well, she asked to two boys sitting to the side of me, and they all began guessing. We went to lunch shortly afterwards, and they were yelling ideas at me the whole time. Well, at one point the girl just yells out it's SEX AND MONKEYS! HaHaHaHA well i didn't stop laughing for a while after that... man was SHE made fun of for a while.... haha Beastology! And to make it better there was a picture of this monkey at the front of the room... we suspected it was her lover! Heh heh yeah i guess i am still pretty sick, but that day was sooooo much fun. Well yeah, so in reality my name isn't Sand Monkey, it's really S and Monkey. P.S. at the end of lunch we all decided that sex and mutilation was a fit definition, not too far from the truth! ------------------
