| Romp | I needed a new nickname when I crossed over to this site, since someone else seemed to like the name better than I did. I chose 'Romp' because I liked the double meaning of the name -- 'winning by a large amount', and uhhhh you can figure out the other one | { Player } |

| red_dog78KM | The story is kind of an odd one. I had gone to the library in my hometown while I was in High School and I just decided to get an e-mail account and I had several nicks that I thought of to use. But, I just thought about it and thought to myself, 'That just would seem kind of dumb to use. Think up a new one.' So, I had chose Red Dog. Well, I had gone to Hotmail (now owned by MSN and changed completely) and had entered that in the signup screen. Well, I couldn't use just that name; but, it did give me some choices and red_dog78 was one of them. So, I chose that one and I've been using red_dog78 ever since |

| Gandalf The Whistler | Jethro Tull is my favorite rock music band (Ian Anderson, in particular), and in 1977 they put out a song called "The Whistler". Now, while I was at a biker poker run barbeque, this song was playing, and this girl was trying to put her hand down my pants, not 'cuz I'm a stud (even tho' I am...lol...) but because she was trying to anger my wife. A line in the song says "I have a pipe and I'm ready to play" - I said that to the girl just as my wife and a friend walked up...my friend said "oooooh, he 'The Whistler'" and the name has stuck and I've used it ever since. It doesn't hurt that I also play flute. <grin> I always use this handle |

We also formed our own individual nicknames so we could play solo games as well. She chose the Golden Queen of NY, while I attempted to regain my original nickname.
