    Give me a new Nickname

    While I have this nick (in and outside this forum and the game) for quite a few years, I often find myself in CloD playing with people having similar homonyms
    Needless to say, this can get confusing at times
    (if you see a guy doing a sudden 180 in clear skies, it's probably me hearing on TS "K/Ni(gh)te, 109 on your 6, break!")

    Most of these players have been active longer and more, so I'm not in any way inclined to ask them to change theirs, but figured a change is in order either way

    So I figured, since in Squadrons, people receive their callsign, and I'm about as creative as a hammer (though you'd be amazed what I can do with a hammer ),
    I thought I'd leave it up to you guys

    2 rules:
    Nothing overly offensive (if I want to be called names I'd either jump in my spit and shoot anything with a roundel, ...or call my ex )
    I get the Veto rights

    Time to decision: Until the right one pops up

    It did get a bit confusing the other week when you and Knighty were on. My suggestion is "Pickle Rick".

    Well someone mentioned "Bones" because of the skull, but how about "Boner".........

    Oh, maybe not, "I have a boner on my tail" just doesn't sound right.

    Bones theme... "Pirate"?

    You are from the Netherlands, so "Lowlander"?

    Dick Sidewood

    (Now Dick Gardens)

    Yeah... ok.... that works.


    Also heard its the name of your first pet and your mothers maiden name.

    Which would make me Fluffy Richards.

    Which also works!

    You could call your self "Jolly Roger" to compliment the skull and crossbones on your avatar .

    We of course would quickly shorten that to J-R .

    Of course every time you got shot down all who can recall dallas will be asking . "Who shot JR"

    So how about "Dallas" as your new callsign
