Been poking around all over the forums and I've read just about every topic here, but one thing I haven't seen is people explain where they came up with their game names. Surely there's a story behind it. My player name goes back to the days of Delta Force Black Hawk Down (all the way back to 2003) when me and three of my friends bought the game. Actually our names go back a bit further than that to Delta Force 2, in which we called ourselves Cougar, Merlin, Maverick and Goose. Yes, after the four guys in the opening scenes of Top Gun. Back then I was apparently up at all hours of the day & night and they constantly joked with me about how I never got any sleep. When BHD came out, we made our new characters names. It occurred to me that the name Merlin backwards was Nilrem and NIL means nonexistent while REM is a stage of sleep. So with a simple reversal of my old name I became 'the backwards wizard who doesn't sleep'.
So what inspired your game name?
