You think you've got problems. Most of the results for "Granny Magda" are me, on one forum or another. Except for this one;

Hi, Larni.
Do you think there's any chance that it was Doubting Too who wrote that dictionary entry? :D -Bluejay/Mantis/Thylacosmilus Darwin loves you.

*that is, by the urban dictionary. In all honesty, it's just a translation.

I'm not even going to tell you what Urban Dictionary put for my name. Honestly, I wanted to be "Blue Jay" (my actual nickname), but the space isn't always allowed in file names, E-mail addresses and stuff, so I wrote it as one word. Perhaps this was a bad idea. :( (I voted a "thumbs down" for both definitions Urban Dictionary gave, because it made me feel better). -Bluejay/Mantis/Thylacosmilus Darwin loves you.

That's kinda hard in wow, the mob gets tagged to you once you've hit it, while others can still kill it, they won't get exp or loot from it. I did ninja loot something from dungeon loot though. :P I hunt for the truth

I Googled my name and all kinds of stuff came up... its too generic. I play a MMORPG too. Its fucking awesome. I've played both EQ and WOW and I like AoC the best so far. Their main site, http://www.ageofconan.com/ , isn't very good :mad: There's a lot of compare/contrast videos on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IALNsmIilFg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ni10DWJjpkg

I got my girlfriend addicted to WoW. Issues of videogame related strife are now a thing of the past, as she occasionally encourages me to play more. Don't know if anyone else here is on the Azjol-Nerub US server. How have you felt about AoC so far, CS? I bought it because of the more mature basis, great premade backstory, more brutal combat, and absolutely beautiful graphics. I then determined that I didn't particularly like a lot of things about the game engine, and never really found a class I enjoyed much. But I know they've made some very significant changes over the months since release. Is it worth me picking it up again for a second chance? Oh, and on-topic...my name is shamelessly stolen from a book series I used to like. The character was woefully underdeveloped, but I liked the name, so I've been using it as a handle ever since.
