[Cyrax]

Cyrax.

 

Used to play as Cyrax all the time on Mortal Combat. With the green net, and the claw that came out his head. My bro used to play as Sector. Good times.

 

Then I started using it on Xbox Connect (Before xbox live. it used to create a massive "lan" system so you could play on line for free) and people started to recognize the name (I was good at Halo: CE!) but that is another story.

Calling myself 'airsofty Dave' on an airsoft forum seems a little obvious

[Finius]

Finius;

 

It's my nickname and has followed me since I was eleven (that's nine years now), I'm considering changing my name simply cause it gets used more than my real name...

 

Comes from a history presentation on the feudal system wherein I played Farmer Finius. A friend then gave me the nickname, which I then started using on online games that he and I played together. It spread from there...
