For quite a while, I was just referred to as "The V GM"...well, as long as Vaschon wasn't around.

Harder-to-spell name = more of a pain for the other GMs to kill.

Not that that's stopped Vaschon or Quarel in the past few days.

Anyone so that needs a bit of attention gets <crtl-C>ed...if they are truely near and dear to my heart I include them in macros. If I absolutely loathe them I add their name to my kill script....that way I remember EXACTLY what I wanted to do to them <G>

Tathlenia see's a young warmage named "Combust" walk by.
(I'm serious about the name, been seeing many like it lately and it's worrying me)

Tathlenia reaches into her thigh bag and pulls out a bunch of papers labeled "kill script"

Tathlenia carefuly studies her script, memmorizing the keys to Combust's demise.

Tathlenia knocks Combust flat with Demriss' Resolve.

Tathlenia pulls out a bottle of naphtha and vigerously douses Combust.

Tathlenia begins Phoenix's Pyre.

Tathlenia merrily watches as Combust beings stirring just in time to notice the flames consume him.

Tathlenia walks off, whistling merrily, satisfied that she's helped someone achieve everything Combust's parents had hoped for when naming him.

I had to kill someone once who kept running around town. He was a bard hater/killer, and I couldn't catch him, but I saw him running by alot. So what I did was set up a script with his name in it, so that when it matched that name, it'd fire my arrow(already had it out). What I did then, is run all over town very fast(easily done if you know your way around), and I had him dead in no time. lol.

You may feel like McDonald's Kate, but no one ever mistakens you for an arch. Do I truly look that much like a piece of scenery?

I've been a slew of them.. 'Jastina', 'Jastema', 'Jasitsma', 'Jastiema', and my favorite and the most common, 'Jastime'. It's an "A", dammit! There was also a very creative concoction once, but I've forgotten it by now. I think there was an 'i' every other letter, though.

To be ultra-technical, the "J" is a "Y" sound. Ooo no. Complexities.

Regardless, it's easy.. double-click on the name in question, ctrl+c, ctrl+v, voila. I've gotten used to it as a mentor.. some of the novices have some choice names with a billion or so vowels.

Especially those rotten Elotheans. ;X

I plead the fifth, because I honestly /would/ be incriminating myself on this one.
