I miss Final Fantasy…
Does my Avatar really need an explanation? :-D
No, because Khan rocks!
Hey froodster is that you in your avatar??
I thought all Canadians looked like this …

Yeh that’s me…
But tell me, do all Americans look like this?

Sankt = Saint in norwegian
Sankt Hallvard, guardian angel/city protector of Oslo(Capital of Norway…)
Introduced in an online game a while back as I ran out of “cool” american nicknames and figured “fuck it, people don’t need to know what my nick means if english is all they know.”
Also featured in songs for the city’s main football club(soccer, that is - VÃ¥lerenga: www.vif.no / www.vpn.no)

About 99% :wink:
Since Star Wars is my favorite film series and Grand Admiral Thrawn’s character is defined by his strategic brilliance I thought it was an appropriate avatar for an Axis and Allies forum.
“Concentration, focus, long-term thinking–those are the qualities that separate a warrior from a mere flailing fighter.”
-Grand Admiral Thrawn
Pretty much, Dan. Except for some of us conspiracy nuts that honestly believe that McDonald’s = Poison and that we cannot trust the FDA to do their job, so we grow our own fruits and vegatables in our own greenhouses…oops! I’m destroying the world with my greenhouse! Oh, it’s okay, it’s just sun lamps, heaters and water I purify myself, I guess it’s okay, as long as I hold my breath. :P :evil:
Politics aside, pretty much. No one takes responsibility for themselves in my country. They all want to blame someone else because they’re fat, ugly, democrat, whatever.
I joined this site mid-2001, way back when. I used to play the game Everquest, and at one point I made a character. The random name generator came up with “Yanbun”. That character eventually became my main guy and I used it on a lot of online sites. When I joined this site, I couldn’t really use such a weird name (though my email was Yanbun100@hotmail.com at the time), so I used the shortened “Yanny”.
The avatar is from Shining Force 2, an old Sega Genesis game, one of the best RPGs of it’s time.

lol, I always thought “Yanbun” was something funny you made up from Yanny.
Jermo - A nickname of my first name, Jeremy.
Foot - I was in a Network Engineering class, and as a reward for successfully setting up a network, we played Microsoft’s Monster Truck Madness. I choose the iconic “Bigfoot” truck, and renamed it “Jermofoot.” It was dumb, but it kinda stuck.
My avatar is a pic of my son - he was probably 8 months or so at the time, and now he is 14 months. I’ve got some other photos that I’ve been considering progressing to.
Very cute kid, I gotta say. Now, what about the “Hahahahaha”?
My screen name is just my e-mail address. Â When I first signed up at this site I was only looking for clarification of some of the OOB rules. Â Especially the UK fighters costing $12. Â Who knew I’d get sucked in, and become completely addicted.
As for my Avatar, I’m a big fan of Babylon 5, Londo was my favorite character. Â I thought the picture was perfect for the political board.
balungaloaf nailed it when he said:
… how haughty and pompous and perfectly fit for londo to sneer at others as they read your posts! Â Â :lol: Â Â Â PERFECT!
It reflects the tone of all of us who post there.
Question to the site administrators. Â Is it possible to change your screen name? Â Now that I’m here to stay, I want to change mine to something cool.
P.S. Balungaloaf, I finally get your Avatar…YMCA…you do know you’re going to hell. :-D

Thanks, man.
The older picture I was using of him was captured in the midst of a hearty laugh. I’ll have to change that as well.

In your profile options you can change the name that appears. It looks like you will still have to login with jsp4563 though, but I haven’t tested it.
P.S. Balungaloaf, I finally get your Avatar…YMCA…you do know you’re going to hell. :-D
I think BL has Arnie…it must be AJ you are talking about.
Jsp, I’m not sure if there is a way to change the name easily. I know that it’s possible through some of my admin options, but would be really annoying.
Oh, and my signature is a quote from Meatloaf’s “Wasted Youth”.
By the way jsp you can change your screen name.
Click on profile in the top right, then in the modify profile section on the left click on account related settings, it is then on the top of the list.

Yes, I meant AJ not BL. Sorry BL, AJ you’re still going to hell…. :-D
