Transatlantic Faux Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 My name comes from the song "Transatlantic Foe" by At the Drive-In. Great song with such a great name, so I stole the name. Later on I realized that "foe" sounds like "faux", only one of the coolest words ever, so henceforth, I was "Transatlantic Faux".I have another name that I use, it's "Captain Mexico".Back when I first started playing FA, before I had a computer that could run it, I would play at my friends house. One day, we got bored and decided to act like weirdos. We were on this one server just being loud and annoying, all in good fun. We had a bunch of names before we eventually reached "Captain Mexico". The name was just hilarious. We came up with a saying, too: "Here I come to save the day, Captain Mexico." It's hilarious. We also had other super hero-esque sayings. Also, whenever someone would ask about the name, I would be like "it's because I'm spicy and hot, like mexican food." or something like that. Those were good times... yeah, we'd sometimes go around as me being "Captain Mexico" and him being "Captiain Mexico Lives!". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Markman Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 -Kamikaze] What the smeg are you talking about? Go have some vindaloo and pass outAce Rimmer will fart on your head while you sleeplol that sounds like something I heard in a kids summer camp comedy movie/show.My name is Mark and I'm a man. so Markman. Since I'm the only Markman I'm The_Markman. I invented this name back in 96. I was playing all these DOS games on my Pentium 300 1 Gig 24 Meg RAM PC and I entered my name as Markman all the time. Then I remember when I tried starting a new Chrono Trigger data and "Markman" wouldnt fit so I got mad.In fact no RPG game is kind enough to let me fit Markman, except FF7 I think. Who cares. 3 years later I play me first online game ONLINE! It was UT and I remember adding "THe" to "Markman... and it was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-GuDGeoNaToR- Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 When I first started playing FA and CS I used the name Raider cuz I'm a huge Oakland Raiders fan. And YES I was heart broken over the loss in the Super Bowl. The name wasn't very original and I saw others with the same name. I wanted a name that was very original. My last name is Gudgeon but I didn't want to use just that. Gudgeonator sounded cool so that's how I came up with the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laughing Fat Man Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 When I first started playing firearms, I had a mental picture of 'Sailor' from Uncommon Valor. One scene had him standing, firing a M60 from the hip, and laughing. It just seemed to fit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
