uhs, because zombie is always taken, on everything.
zombie because I look and sound like one in the morning before I've had my cup of coffee

The reason I chose maddog is because when the guy from the internet service asked me for a username and password, all I could think of was dogs, and since I'm a rudedog, and I had a pacodog, who is now a deaddog, I thought, what the heck? so maddog it was.

at the right time and naturally became a hero. Cheers.

Well, I got "Avatar" from the Avatar of the Eight Virtues (Ultima for those unenlightened souls). Curse me for the unimaginative son of a donkey salesman if you will, but I was pretty young when I started using it (about 15 or so IIRC). Since then, it would be too much trouble to change all my email addresses, and other stuff. So it stayed. Oh yeah, and it is an extremely overused nick, thus my initials after it.
Oh yeah, and about the personal info which you supposedly wanted : 22 year old, male, living in Straya (like anyone cares).

There really is no interesting story behind my nick. Just must fill that stupid column "Username" with something, and "Shrieker" did sound good to me.
In fact, I am far more introspective person, as might my nick suggest. No need to shout at anybody.

If your a little bit older you will probably remember a game called "Quest for Glory 1"
I took this name from the main theif character who was a real theif.

In devotion to one of my favorite punk bands, Screeching Weasel.
And as my sig says, I'm not a very good thief. Though I haven't been caught in real life...
I'm of an odd heritage... 3/4 German and 1/4 Welsh. My first name is Irish for "He who upholds the good." My last name is Schwanz. For those of you that know some German slang, I can combine my names into one: Viagra.

EEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Skreechin weasels don't make very good thieves...

I'm affraid that my name is not as humourous as those who have posted before me. I was at a loss for a name, so I chose this. I had originally planned something from TDP, because that is the only Thief game I had played at the time of my joining. I decided not to, (lack of ideas), so I contemplated using my name from other places, ktaiidan. I didn't. Finally, I decided to use the name MORTS. My first name actually means "Champion", I just remembered so hey! There's another good reason to use this name. Oh, I hope anyone reading this post has neither died of sheer boredom or had to gnaw their leg off to remain sane.

in Italy there is a movie series centered upon the stories of an unlucky employee - Fantozzi his name - (played by a comic actor, Paolo Villaggio, ....something like Laurel & Hardy style): in one of its episodes he plays the imaginary role of a Japanese WW2 kamikaze fighter, namely Tozzifan: as my main interest is virtual jetfighter air combat, I took that nickname.........
