Well, the way i came about name wasn't quite as imaginative or creative as some others. It's simply my initials, Chris.Harris. Plus it's simple, so i've stuck to it.

Actually when I was trying to come up with a name, I thought about using Kraid, but in the end I chose Ridley because I thought he looked cooler and I found an avatar of him which I really liked.
Please put up that avatar. The one you have now is... I don't even know what or who it is...

ghettodude...

the first time i used it was when i signed up for battle.net when starcraft came out...

i used to live in a neighborhood that could be considered ghetto.. and my house... looked really ghetto from the outside.. but we spent so much time while i was young renovating it.. that inside it looked like amazing.. basically.. ghettodude just meant dude from the ghetto.... and it was kinda like... a hidden meaning.. cuz in starcraft one of my main strategies was to abandon my first base... make another one on another side of the map... and let the people attack it... but try to defend it for at least 10 minutes or so while i build up my other base.. gain units.. and had a friend of mine build up units and we could counter right about the time they thought they were finishing me off... i was a decoy.. pretty much.. and my lifestyle was a decoy.. in my old neighborhood... so yea.

Germans are funny, adding "ator" to words is funny, especially with German, so yeah.

ghettodude 04-21-2002 04:09 PM

i guess i didnt pay much attention to the a :(

The Germanator 04-21-2002 04:28 PM

Yeah, I think a lot of people think I'm talking about germs, but hey, I guess because it's more normal than talking about Germans...

GameKinG 04-21-2002 04:37 PM

Well...I just thought of a name, cause Im no good at making interesting ones. But at ndose, I wanted Gameking, but that was taken by someone who never posted. So I did, GameKing, that was the one I had before I posted like 50 post. Then I forgot my password somehow...I dont remember. So I ended up with GameKinG, which in short is GKG.

2.) In Greek mythology, Andromeda was the wife of Perseus (for you that don't know I'm Greek)
3.) It's a star or constellation I can't remember
4.) last but not least a really good show on Sci-Fi :)
