There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who know binary, and those who don't.
My name actually has a semi-deep history. first off it sounds really cool. but of course u dont just think of things like Xanatos. I actually borrowed it from a book, star wars based. Xanatos was a good jedi gone bad. He was legendary in the academy for his ability to absorb knowledge, think independantly, and above all crush any of his opponents using not only superior lightsaber skills but also a constantly evolving battle strategy. It was this excellence that attracted the attenion of one of the most presteigious masters of the time, one Qui Gonn Jin. After traveling the galaxy with his new master and learning what Xanatos deemed was a sufficient amound of world experience, he abandoned his master, leaving behind an intricate network of traps to ensnare his former mentor. While Qui Gonn was busy trying to get out of his proverbial spider web alive, Xanatos stole his ship and went to study the dark side, which he mastered. having decidedly gotten al lhe could from either side of the force, he left both orders of jedi to make his own carreer. Years later, he again encountered Qui Gonn Jin. This time he was running an enourmous and highly profitable planet-wide mining operation that he was using for personal interests. He again decided to test his master's skill, laying a huge network of bombs across the planet. The explosives destroyed the planet, but unfortunately not before Qui Gonn Jin was saved by his new apprentice Obi Wan Kenobi. Xanatos again escaped his old master, and continued to live a very distinctly successful and diabolical life. He was always several steps ahead of his enemies.
Also, the name has its own meaning. It was arguably derived from the greek word "thanatos". i was quite pleased, having used this name for FPS's for two years, to find that thanatos, and/or xanatos, was defined as "death". quite the pleasant surprise.
as i began to find that i always won in video games wherever i played them(or at least displayed tremendous skill regardless of experience) i began adding title to my name, such as lord, showing not only my own skill but also the success fo Xanatos in founding and heading a new jedi order, one of neutrality between light and dark to know all and use it to best survive and succeed. (i also used other titles, like "Master Xanatos" which is my gamertag on live). i added 666 occasionally to indicated my character's relative evilness and my own apocalyptic gaming style. that pretty much sums it up. there u have it. LordXanatos666 or Master Xanatos. either or.
