Send a message via MSN to lordnothing
'lord' comes from Discordians' habit of taking titles of mystic import
'nothing' is from a book by Poppy Z. Brite

simple 'nuff

for all of you wondering what the hell a discordian is, read this book in pdf format (9mb): http://www.23ae.com/files/PrincipiaDiscordia.pdf

Opnosforatou, it the old days, when the LAG monster still roamed the internet, I created an MUD account trying to type: Nosforatou, the undead, ,
but made a Type-O-(Negative) during lag and ended up with Opnosforatou.
Have been using that nick ever since, that was back in 1994 (using Lynx to browse and later mosaic )

The MUD i play is : Mystic Adventure

My nick just came out of my head (under the influence of a lot of Tolkien).

Send a message via MSN to microft.pt
no meaning, although it resenbles the name of a shady software company.

Send a message via AIM to imported_Ghost
I use Ghost when I play online games. Sometimes I will vary the spelling or the characters (eg. [.ol' Ghosty.]). I couldn't think of a better name so I stuck with this one.

Fingal is the name of one of my MUD characters... My best one! I stopped playing the MUD but wanted to keep the name. I wanted something vaguely wizardly and vaguely Celtic:
