    My Screen Name

    A few people have asked where I got my screen name from so I figured it might be a thing to post.

    First off I have made no secret about my inner geek, he is a big boy and very well fed and I let him run around quite a lot so he isn’t shy. *LOL*

    As some of you know I am a HUGE Battlestar Galactica fan and that led me to join an online group called the Colonial Defense Force (CDF), anyway that fan club is organized in smaller regional groups as their own Battlestars. So of course I was the first kid on my block to start one. When we were looking for a name for the group we kept with the mythological underpinnings of the show and named our fictional Battlestar after Thor’s hammer “Mjolnir” [myawl-nir] . With me being the head of the group I became Mjolnir Actual. Since I am not a fan of _underscores_, I smashed the name together to make MjolnirAcutal. I’ve been using it for about the past 5 years now for just about everything including my PSN ID.

    That’s my story and I’m stick’n to it *LOL*

    Also in game rather than wrestle with Mjolnir I always answer to Actual and you guys can always just say “hey Dave” and I’ll know you are talking to me. *LOL*

    Mjolnir Out!

    Bro i love BSG. When i was little you couldnt move me from the TV set when BSG was on. I absolutely love the remake of BSG i have purchased the whole series online and now im making my wife watch it .

    It all started in 1979 when my dad took me to see Star Wars. that day changed me and forever turned me into a Sci-Fi geek.

    Later,

    I knew what Mjolnir was, but the "Actual" part was a mystery. Makes perfect sense now. BTW, you are in the company of many a proud geek!

    Indecision may or may not be my problem.

    Re: My Screen Name

    I am still on the fence about this one, it will take more than a logical explanation for this one to be concrete....

    So, in the mean time I am just going to stick with my assumption that you named yourself "Mjolnir" because you like it when big burly men grab your "Handle"... LMAO!!

    It was a blast thanks for the game. Maybe tonight my boys will decide sleep a little more soundly and I'll be able to play longer.
