forum/state names

[Norrisville]

A lot of people wonder how I came up with Norrisville as my name.... well,

in my high school band, there was a kid in the grade above me who kept making these odd chuck norris references. so i decided to google him and see what came up, and i found www.chucknorrisfacts.com , a website filled with hilarious (in my opinion) jokes about chuck norris. so every day in 11th and 12th grade i wrote a chuck norris joke on the band room chalkboard every day. so i figured it would be unique to name my first WoW state Norrisville.

There's probably a story behind every forum/state name. so lets all crowd around a campfire and tell our stories!

[jeff_capes]

Jeff Capes
(Probably not correct spelling) was the strongest man in the world when I was younger. Me and mates used to shout it out when fighting or giving a mate beats, haha. Then used it playing online games like counterstrike and things and it just stuck.
Radstock (my state) is just where I live, lol.

[LandDragon]

since i was born in 1988, which is a year of dragon according to the chinese calendar, more precisely its earth dragon, but earth sounds lame, so i took the liberty to change it to LandDragon, i have used it since 2003 when i started playing Enemy Territory

[Mahdi]

Mahdi... Dune Series i visionary leader and a brilliant tactician excellent with words and revered as a god by the fremen...

Dragoon... the Protoss Unit

In the books it is Muad'dib. There was a real life Mahdi who was not too smart, picked a fight with us (British) and got his arse kicked.

[Mahdi]

it is also stated that he is Mahdi... and i really didnt feel like writing out Muad'dib on a million different games

[Dogma]

When I got my first computer, back in the mid early 90's, I was playing Janes Combat simulations online and I had to have a callsign. I tried eleventy million until I foung Dogma was available, and the rest is history

[PhoenixFury]

For me a while I was trying to think of a new name... it used to be Rayzor but that was taken already in the game I was playing, so I thought of PhoenixFury partly because of my interest in phoenix's plus phoenix's are meant to be peaceful so the fury of one is unheard of, and you'd have to do something pretty extreme to make it angry. Anyway the name sound cool and it stuck.

The state name just has to do with fire, phoenix=fire bird, and I like fire *cough* fire bug *cough*
