Night Hammer was a Super Star Destroyer in one of the starwars books, so thats how i picked that name(it's still NH over at HLP afaik)

ive been playing EVE everyone calls me Hammer (or sexy whatever they prefer) so i just had it shortened over here.

Ohh, there was Times ... , yeah, really great Times .... 8)
In 1993 (so I remember) "Worms" was released for AMIGA.
Same Time I had a little Mice-farm with more then 50 Mices ;)
( Nice black Mices, with white feets and white front :D )

Same Time, here in germany, the mail-BOX of Norman Thoss was running live on TV (in berlin)
... all, who dont know whats that, it's a live-chat on a seperate Amiga used as chatserver. Login was via phone, modem and a terminalProg (I used "ZOC")

Just for this Chat i needed a "Nickname".
So the Idea came quickly with one of my Best friends "Fuchs". (Today "Vulpes Ideenfabrik")
There was "Worms" and tons of Mices ... (Maus = german for mice)
combined = Worms + Maus = Wormaus
Wormau's nick = wormanic
... so we created
"Wormaus Wormanic" (yes, thats my full nick, but mostly used only "Wormaus", now since 13 Years none stop.)

ahhm, btw: I really dont remember, how pweople called me before i used this nick. (else "Computer" :razz: )
... dont have a signature ...

Ahhh... the good old Night Hammer. That was from Darksaber wasn't it?

And is Blue Lion some relation to the *Puts on Admiral Petrarch accent* 70th Blue Lions?

Some 5 or so years ago, when I first decided to finally register over at PlanetDescent (this was even before I started playing D3 online), I decided to do so under the name of Red Baron (since, the way I saw things, that would be a great name for an aspiring Descent ace). Rather noobishly, though, I neglected to check the pilots database beforehand, and so I completely missed the fact that there was already a RedBaron registered there. As noobs do, as soon as I found this out, I panicked and tried to think up a new name spur-of-the-moment. Now, I've loved fighter jets since the time I was a little kid; in fact, my mother saw the movie Top Gun in theaters less than a month before I was born. (Apparently, I kicked quite a bit. :P) So I said to myself, "Why not?" One quick name change e-mail to Testiculese later, and Top Gun was born. I've had this same avatar since that day, and I use it wherever I'm able.

As for Mongoose, once I saw that Top Gun was taken over at Hard Light, I tried to come up with something related to the film. Unfortunately, my memory was a bit rusty, and I mistakenly remembered Maverick's wingman as being named "Mongoose," instead of "Goose," so that's what I went with. That mistake turned out for the best, though, since mongooses (mongeese?) kick ass. Hard Light is the only forum where I use that name; I'm Top Gun (or some variant thereof, as circumstances require) everywhere else I go online.
A.K.A. Mongoose, for you HLP denizens
