One of the guys in my Counter-Strike clan called me Supercommando one time (instead of Supermercado). I think that was taken when I signed up here, so I decided to go with SuperCommando.

Some jerk took Scipio so I had to name myself after a damned dinosaur instead.

At least you didn't choose Barney :p

Oh sure, I could have found some other Roman, but nooooo, I had to do it the easy way. Nobody even knows what the hell a scipionix is! I don't! Oh well, nichevo.

Unfortunately, nobody can be told what my nick is. You have to see it for yourself. ;)

It came to me in a vision.

The Lord spoke saying:

"Thou shall go forth to all the land and spread your wisdom and you shall be called Cougar"

weird.. i was gonan start a thread like this a coupla hours ago.

anyway, i went by logik (cuz the CS clan i was in prided ourselves on the way we thought logically) and i'v ealways been (read, tried to be) logical at all times.

So anyway, i come on AT, and whatd'ya know, someone's got Logik, and i remembered a compliment someone gave about a debate i was participating in, and how my logic was "crystal" clear.
I've always spelled logic with a k, so i decided to make crystal with a k and put the two together to make "krystalogik

Now, a lot of people refer to me as krystal, and i sound like a girl :(

the phoenix knight is mentioned in don quixote. so i used the phoenix night for a long time. lots of video games wouldn't take that full name so i chopped it down to what you see here.

although there was that EIFenix bastard trying to steal my thunder one day...
