I know many people have the nick name Cookie, but I like to think mine is special. Cookie came from two places for me. It was my nick name when I was little that every one called me until about 5th grade, then it kinda just wore off. The other place Cookie comes from is a fictional character from a book my friend and I are writing. She is a strong female character that can do anything. We didn’t know what to name her, as every name has some personal background with the reader. It could be that kid who was your best friend, or someone who you work with that you hate. She adopted my nick name after taking on some of my qualities.

So, the name “BGraph”… Heh, that’s a really good question xD

The name BGraph actually came from a cracked minecraft account that was on my first computer. I got the computer used, and I didn’t question why it didn’t let me log into official minecraft servers. Needless to say, I decided to continue to use the name BGraph with my official account because it is the name that everyone ( from the cracked servers ) knew me by.

So yeah, that’s me 🙂

My Past Names: ViejoTheMexican, PandoraTheExplora, JamminMas ViejoTheMexican When I first joined mc I was told to use a name no one would know you by, so I chose ViejotheMexican which means old Mexican in Spanish. PandoraTheExplora I always like dora the explora so I went with a name that sounded like it, and had my favoite music download, Pandora. JamminMas When I was 5 I had a little piano and I used to JAM out on it! Then my mom said ok Jammin Mas time for dinner and it stuck from then on! Btw Mas stands for the first 3 letters of my name.

Holy Fek! Your PandoratheExplora? Dude! Like 2 years ago! Falling Star and I had a battle with you!! Remember? You killed me and gave like half my stuff back, and exchanged my sword for a crappy one? DUDE! I freakin hated you with a passion. And every time you would join I would plot your death (in-game, not irl) My vault had that same sword that you had exchanged to me, named “Death to Pandora” on it XD. Funny what a name change does, cuz now we’re friends 😀

I first played the Minecraft PC gamer demo and found I liked it. Unfortunately, I ended up starting a huge forest fire by accident which ravaged the world for miles and almost burnt me to death. So because that was my first experience in Minecraft and because I didn’t have any better ideas, I called myself PaulOnFire. (Which is a bit silly tbh, as you shouldn’t use real names online. But whatever.)

oh dear lord, they say Herobrine starts forest fires. But it’s actually a wild Paul with Flint ‘n’ Steel!

Alvanos Morvothril:

My original username was AssassinOfHades which is really just something I came up with because I’m a fan of Assassin’s Creed and mythology. Then when I joined the Elven Empire I decided to become a Dark Elf and wanted a name that just sounded more lore friendly so I used a name generator to come up with Hades Morvothril. Recently I decided it still wasn’t lore friendly enough so I used the same name generator to come up with Alvanos Morvothril. It doesn’t really mean anything I just like how it sounds.

The lore behind the character is dark and very long. I’m still working on it so I probably won’t post it here.

Edit: The second time it wasn’t lore friendly enough was because I have like 14 other characters with lore friendly names.

From Left to Right: Martomo Andeus, Imperial Scholar. Eruindil Larethoth, High Elven Necromancer. Rosertia Endelliun, Imperial Priestess. Geireid Ravencrone, Nord Mercenary. Moguk Murgrn, Orc Warrior. Elaara Stomreus, High Elven Soldier. Aymon, Sea Elven Mage. Elenaril Aquina, Sea Elf Priestess. Alvanos Morvothril, Dark Elven King. Rolane Morvothril, Dark Elven Sorceress. Rosayne Sinen, Breton Alchemist. Breydros, Dark Elven Thief. Aredriel Ivybrook, Wood Elven Hunter. Shahja Androsesh, Argonian Assassin. Daro’ahna Xatamil, Khajiit Smuggler.

My original gaming name was MrClusterFluxin which i came up with while my wife and I were trying to come up with a name for our coworking space. We were brainstorming and just writing down anything that had to do with change, community, groups and the like. On my paper I had put down cluster and flux  in separate places so when i was reading back over it I just started laughing. My wife asked what was so fun and I said we should name our place clusterflux. Needless to say she put the nix on that name but i still thought it was funny. So when I started playing Minecraft I figured why let it go to waste and became MrClusterFluxin.

Since my son wanted to start playing on servers I, being the responsible parent went to find some family friendly servers by joining them and checking them out first. To be honest i was a bit nervous for them as they are really sweet kids and i know how mean kids can be sometimes. Then my daughter wanted to start playing online as well but she was only 6.

After doing a server search for servers that catered to younger children i found a whitelisted server that had a staff that were all parents of young minecrafters and had the same concerns i did. So I filled out the registration for each of the kids and myself as well to help my daughter learn how to play minecraft o a server.

My kids were whitelisted but i was rejected because some of the parents thought my username was to edgy. XD So I emailed them and explained the situation. They said if I changed the name to something less “edgy” they would let me on.

So my wife and kids started brainstorming for something that was cool but yet subdued. Out of that session TheBluBeardedYeti was born. It was piratey, my name, my beard, and i’m hairy and yeti shaped. But theblubeardedyeti was one letter to long to work as a username in minecraft so it was shortend to MrBluBeardedYeti.

The lore of the transformation is much more interesting than the reality which can be found on the wiki here http://wiki.piratemc.com/MrBluBeardedYeti

I guess I should chime in: Smokeyriver- I got the nickname Smokey when I was completing a research project in college on conservation work. Probably after Smokey the Bear hahahaha. I just pulled the river part out of thin air but it fits. Im an environmental nut and I enjoy anything conservation :-). Spookyriver- haha this was a joke going around with MrJolly and Markusi one day so on a whim i changed it.

i always wondered where you got your name from, I just thought it was random.

Wow, it’s been so long, but this place has so many cool things, I can’t help but revive it XD

My username is PIPPIP5789, and there is a few walls of text coming to explain it.

So, back in the 3rd grade, I heard about this game called Minecraft, and after “proving” myself to my parents, I was allowed to get it. Now, I couldn’t wait to get started, but I had to choose a username, and unfortunately, I was (and still am) terrible at names. I spent some time looking around, and I finally more or less gave up, because everything I could think of had already been taken. After some time, a robotics/programming competition came around, and I decided to enter it. After entering, I soon learned I loved both robotics and programming (I learned what I hoped to do for the rest of my life in the 3rd grade). ANYway, some languages (Python most notable nowadays) used a script called a Pip script, or the Pip tool, and said tool basically made a programmer’s life easier. Since I was in the 3rd grade, easier sounded better, so I started using the tool.

Now, by this point I had totally forgotten about Minecraft, being all excited about programming, robotics, and trying to keep up with all of my schoolwork, so it wasn’t until after I had moved on past that language with the Pip tool (whatever it was) that I remembered Minecraft. Well, by sheer irony, I had forgotten about the Pip tool (again, 3rd grade), so I still couldn’t think of a name. I started playing on guest accounts (remember those?) and I just loved to play Capture the Flag. Well, I always played on a particular server that was a Minecraft Classics server, and I almost always played CTF on there. I was renown on the server as “The Ghost” (which would have been a great name, but oh well)… Well, one day something very particular happened.

One day, I was playing CTF, and for whatever reason, I always managed to capture my opponent’s flag twice. Every time. I don’t know to this day why, but I played 23 matches that day (1 match consisting of a 3-of-5 series of games, each game first to 5 flag captures), and on EVERY GAME I captured their flag twice. No more, no less. Well, people started calling me “Double Trouble” that day (which didn’t stick, but also would have been a cool nickname). Well, I finally decided to try and think up a nickname, and I spent the next 2 weeks thinking. One day, the answer hit me (literally; I fell out of my chair in school): Pip would be my name, just like that programming tool I used to use. Well, I get home, and the name is taken. I am so mad because I thought I had it and I was finally going to get to play on that server with everyone else and they’d see me and know me as more than a guest, when suddenly I remember my “Double Trouble” nickname from that day. Well, I typed in “Pippip”, but somehow THAT was already taken as well (go figure, right?). I furiously erased the name, and smashed on the keyboard in frustration, hitting the Caps Lock key, when suddenly I thought of: My lunch number. Crazy as that sounds, I put in my lunch number, and I had my name! Only, my parents said I didn’t need to put any of my information on the internet, so I had to think for a while longer, and I finally remembered an old joke, “Why was 6 scared of 7? Because 7 8 9”. So, I took the 578 I had, and turned it into 5789, and with the caps, my name became “PIPPIP5789”. It hadn’t been taken (what would the chances of it being taken be?), and I finally got my name! The name became feared on that server, until my parents decided they didn’t want me to play on Multiplayer anymore…

Now, for the lore of PIPPIP5789 (Sorry for more walls of text):

The name PIPPIP5789 has become a legend among many servers, Piratecraft among them. The day this user joined Minecraft, he almost quit Minecraft, because he spawned in not 1, not 2, but 3 different Mushroom biomes in a row. Finally, after landing in a Village (and having his computer crash, effectively banning him from Minecraft for the next 2 years), he finally managed to rejoin the server he played on and began honing his skills. After making his mark on multiple servers as one of the best bowmen Minecraft had ever seen, PIPPIP5789 decided to take a break from his training and began studying the less violent ways of Minecraft, soon learning many techniques such as farming, and became much more domesticated (so he wouldn’t be banned from any more servers for alleged bow targeting hacks). After many years of honing himself under the sun, PIPPIP5789 soon began looking around for a new server. After flirting around with a few servers, he finally found a match: Piratecraft.

Soon, PIPPIP5789 became a well-known player, having easily established a hidden base, with a fleet of small ships that guarded some secrets that would never be uncovered for the rest of the server’s life (being eventually regened/removed for reasons later explained). While no longer a crack shot with a bow, he soon gained the respect of many players with his strategies and tactics, and succeeded in creating a hidden underground empire that would last for a couple years to come. However, after being caught by his parents, PIPPIP5789 was forcefully removed from the server for an extended period of time, under which the hidden empire crumbled, and PIPPIP5789 lost all but 1 of his safehouses. Upon his return to the server 2 ½ years later, he found all this out, and soon began rebuilding the empire that he had once known.

Try after try failed, and soon PIPPIP5789 took extended leaves, each weeks at a time, trying to find himself. After returning and travelling the server world over, he soon found the answer that so many people had missed. This answer, he soon began founding a new Empire on it, calling upon the name that had struck fear into so many others on so many other servers: The Visionary Empire. The Visionaries soon had some ups and downs, but soon, the new age would begin. The age of the Visionaries, under Emperor PIPPIP5789 and the Board of Directors and Advisors.

Sorry about the walls of text, but I hope that everyone enjoys the shortened (yes, I’m serious) version of my life!
