teh story of thorax:
When i first started playing online games i never could decide on a name for myself. The names i'd assume usually were just joke names to get a laugh from when you see it. One of the names I had used that i particularily liked was ChaotiX... but hten someone at school came up to me and said, "hey, it's Chaotix!". hearing it said by another person kinda ruined the way the name sounded, so i abandoned it and resumed with the joke names. Then one day, while playing NS (i dont rememebr the version number... it was the one before 1.3 or something... must have been 1.2), I decided to change my name while in-game. I was going throug my head for names I could use, then i started thinking about UT2k3, and how the narrator dude would announce the character names when you selected them. I went through a bunch of names, saying them out loud and trying to imitate the announcer. I came to the bots that had cool names, Cobalt, Corrosion, Syzygy... then i came to Thorax. "Hmm, that sounds cool" i thought. and i changed my name to that. Now, thile i have been using this name the longest, i have taken on a few other names after choosing ThoraX just for a test run. Names like XenohunteR and XenoHybriD, but they never made the cut. I am, and forever will be, ThoraX... no matter how many people say, "WTF is a thorax?" or, "Thor had a hammer not an axe, you nub!"
