I've told this to many people in-game, but I've never posted it online.

So when I started playing, I tried some random names, eventually, as a joke, I settled on owner, but when I saw someone with that name, I switched to owned. Time passed, and I kept on meaning to switch the name to something else, but eventually it came to a point that people recognized me by that name. So I decided to keep it. Then about 9 months later, after I was in CT, I spelled my name wrong when I typed it in. Instead of CTxOwned, I did CtxWoned. Now, me being lazy, I decided not to switch it back, but I always intended to switch it back. Then, like with owned, people started to recognize me with that name. So I kept it. Smile

Long story short, I made a horrible name, then I made it even more horrible by typoing it, but I was too lazy to switch it back. The End.

So, in a way, you woned yourself Laughing

Exactly.

I think I'm old enough to remember the name switch (though we're both really young!)

This is old now, but anyway, when I was a freshman in high school, I would hang out with upper-classmen. Then one day they were like who the fuck are you really? I was like idk. So they called me Mystery kid. They later changed it to Mk, then Mk1. When I started tron, I used this name, but realized it wasn't long enough to be recognized. So I then came up with Mkay-1 out of Mk1.

Btw im Junior now and all those kids who called me that are gone now ^^.

So I was looking back at an old topic and it seems like my memory about my name change is a little flawed. Apparently I still changed my name as a mistake, but instead of people just getting used to it overtime, I kept it for two reasons: 1. I had a good ranking on CTWF for it 2. I just thought: whatever this is my new name now. In the old topic I said that I still switched between owned and woned every once in a while but that I decided to keep woned.
