How did you choose your screen name?
#12
The eternity of this name has 2 stories, one short, the other a little bit longer.

Back all the way to the dark year of... I think between 2002 and 2004, when I caught glimpse of this MMORPG my brother played. I found the game to be interesting in the way of it was completely on-line with so many other people. (Runescape ofcourse) This concept was new to me and I failed to think of a nickname for my charachter. Eventually after around... 5 minutes or so I thought of a solution. I would simply drop my left hand on a few keys on the left side of the keyboard and I would stick with that nickname. This turned out to become fasda. Problem was fasda was already taken but the game gave me a short list of names similar and still free. One of these was fasda22, I chose this because of ease to remember, two two's added to fasda easy to remember. Ever since I have used Fasda22 on-line as I grew very attached to the name and it has become my on-line "Personality".

The King Tiger Ace part is a reference to one of my previous favorite games (This is also the case for Tiger Ace Fasda22 if anyone remembers that name) World of Tanks. Now I do not play that game anymore, but by far my favorite vehicle to drive was the Tiger II because of how well I could do in that machine. I loved the Tiger II to death and its crew was the highest level crew of my entire roster of crews. I referred to these guys as my "Aces of aces" because with a friend we had made a little group and we had decided that if a crew had 1,5 crew skills, they would be aces. This crew however has 3 skills, so I thought of the suffix Ace of Aces and it was there boom. Anyway trailing off. After I had discovered War Thunder and its dedication to have Ground Forces (At the time I started it was a plane-only game) I started playing it more and more. And after the German and Russian ground forces were released... I was hell-bent on getting my favorite vehicles from World of Tanks, the Tiger I and Tiger II. I originally stayed with just Tiger Ace Fasda22 because of how I enjoyed the Tiger I (The grind to the Tiger II was long so I had plenty of time to mess around with the good ol' Tiger I). I decided to change the name because of another player that was actively playing on dinks as well who had Tiger in the name and there was alooot of confusion when a Tiger got called out. So just for that when he was online I changed the name to something else, FlaK Tower (Love these things) fasda22, StuG Ace Fasda22. Eventually I had changed it to King Tiger Ace Fasda22 and for the sake of being lazy decided to keep this.

So there ya go. The history of the name of a Dutchman accused of being Belgian.
