Now, that's what I call enthusiasm! At least they won last night.
Did you also check out the men's World Cup in 1994? Sweden finished third! Man, that summer was just unbelievable...
Interesting piece of history. I'm not sure, but I think about one million Swedes emmigrated to escape poverty and religious repression. That's quite a few for a country with only ca 9 million inhabitants (today!).
The handle interest doesn't seem to be that great after all. BTW, isn't "the rule" a hundred posts before the sequel?

During the time I first came on the net and I had to use a name I used Colonizer, because at the time I was playing Colonisation a lot.
Due lazyness reasons I shortened it to Colon after a while.

The Ellimist is a character in the Animorphs series. He has almost godlike powers (stopping time, changing history, etc.). Besides, I forgot the password for "Evil Antler God", which is what I should be using!!!

There is no pulling the wool over Carolus Rex's eyes. Nice one son, where can I access to see other members profiles, if anywhere?

Sijo - I think Carolus just misspelled Johansson, I wouldn't give him too much credit.
Jones would have been the other likely candidate.
The profile for everyone is next to their name on the post - It's the face with the "?"

Quite simply the first two letters of my first name and surname. Can anyone guess what they are in their entirety ?

The Ellimist,
What about the origin of "Evil Antler God"?

Back in 1990 a glorious, nay a godly adventure game series was born called the Secret of Monkey Island. It was my first adventure game I've ever played and I instantly fell in love with it. The Monkey Island games set the benchmark for adventure games for many years to come.
At that time I was so crazed with three-headed monkey jokes so I guess my username is derived partly because of my craze of the Monkey Island series.

I got mine from uh, The Brain! The genetically altered mouse bent on ruling the world. I thought of this name because I won my first game by conquering the world when I joined this forum.

I'm the most rude and not shy person in this world. When I entered the net 3,5 years ago I wanted a name that had nothing to do with me.
People still ask me why I am shy.

Nuh. Sorry about that. My connection dropped out 3 times in a row. Re-connect, drop out, re-connect, drop out. Figured the message hadn't got through. I'll change servers. Or change my handle to The Tautologist :-)
Aggggghhhhh! It just happened again as I'm typing this! Definitely time to change servers!

"Evil Antler God" was derived from a letter to Ultra Game Players. I picked up the name and used it for a short time... until I lost the password.
Apologies for the double post

Yeah...
Actually, I wasn't able to get on the Internet for the entire month of January and for the better part of February. I lost my password. (I didn't try the "forget your password" link because I don't think it existed back then. Besides, I was a regular on another forum and didn't have much time for this one.)
