<div class="IPBDescription">It's a novella idea I have</div> It's partially a rip-off of <i>Ender's Game</i> and other various sources such as <i>FreeLancer</i> and the ilk.
The easy part (for me) is writing it - the hard part is coming up with Callsigns and such. So, i'm asking if anyone here has an objection to me using their Forum Name for my novella callsigns.
So far the good ones I've seen are:
MonsE, SilverFox,Nemesis Zero, Flayra, Comprox, Joev, Maroc, Silent, Grasshopper, Outlaw, Sid, Thansal, Liku, Seepra, Baltazaar, Sycophant, Zaiko, Burr, Gwar, FireStorm, DY, Karma, Confuzor, Fam, Coil, BioHazard, TenSix, Paq, Shiroh, Infinitum, Rion, Vash
Not saying other peoples names are bad, I just prefer names that sound...like Callsigns. The total is 32 so far, which is the size of the Fleet (think Army from Ender's Game)which the main character commands.
Now, if any of those people mind me using their names, just PM me. If you think you have a name that sounds like a Callsign and you want it used, PM me. If you have any idea's, post them! I'll probably have a first draft done in a week or so, depending upon school.

I try to think of names carefully when I... hmm... when I WILL be using them for characters of stories and such. I've made a list of them as well. The only problem is actually setting the time to make a story, heh.
When it comes to making up new pseudonyms. I do my best to make them original. Heck, I even typed "Confuzor" in ICQ just to make sure I was the original, and I think it's safe to say, I was! Starting to get used now... ****. <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->
So yeah, it's getting ripped now, so I don't mind if you use it.
I recently thought I came up with a new one: "Propagandalf", and was very disappointed to see that it's already been used before. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
/looks up names on google; "WTH? 'Quegga' has been used as well?"
/starts dating the conception of names created to reassure myself that I was the original creator of such names should I ever see them brought up
<b>THEY WILL LEAVE MY PRECIOUS(ES) ALONE!!!</b>
<i>at least my name somewhat reflects my nature... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> </i>
120 pages? holy shiat!
so thats 2 things now (I also have my name as a BOT for HLPB I think ;D)
MonsE, SilverFox,Nemesis Zero, Flayra, Comprox, Joev, Maroc, Silent, Grasshopper, Outlaw, Sid, Thansal, Liku, DuBer, OuterFrog, Sycophant, Zaiko, Burr, Gwar, FireStorm, Narfwak, Karma, Confuzor, Fam, Coil, BioHaz, Confuzor, Paq, Shiroh, Infinitum, Rion, Vash
I've been distracted by school as of late so it's going slow...luckily I have cinema studies tomorrow (CStudies = 1.5hours of free write time 4 me)
by the way, for the main character I've gotten the name Pyrrha. Talk about choosing a bad callsign, although it was originally meant to be the savior of the world according to the romans (Pyrrha and Deucalion were the Noah and wife of their time)
[edit] removed DY, replaced with Narfwak.[/edit]
by the way, so far I've designed it so...
Squadron Leader/ Angel Wing Leader - Pyrrha
Beta Wing Leader - Silver Fox
Crane Wing Leader - MonsE
Delta Wing Leader - Flayra
Echo Wing Leader - Coil
Flame Wing Leader - Fam
Gamma Wing Leader - Comprox
Indigo Wing Leader - Joev
I've set up all the background stuff, like the name of the Squadrons and their commanders.
But don't credit me, I didn't come up with it.
Anyway, I'd love to be in the list, if thy great callsigne lorde would hath me.
when i was searching posts with my names inside in the NS forum.......

plus I prolly wouldnt let you as my name is unique and copyright me <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
Its JOH-BAH-BOB right? That doesn't seem hard to pronounce, and if its JOB-AH-BOB, well, thats not hard to pronounce either.
Dont even remember how I chose XILLER although sometimes I use Almano, depends on the feel if the game but usualy I stick with XILLER.
