Basically almost the same here, though some people think it is affiliated somehow with 4chan. Please.

HOMM FTW! My first ever strategy franchise, pulled me into Strategy then MOBA genre >.<

Story behind Therapy is pretty simple. I'm a bit crazy in the head and need therapy. So when I was making a new name, just thought of it and thought why not? Just added double E at the end later to make it unique, hence Therapee.

I'm also gonna join this. So the story behin´d my name, ElDiablo, (I also use name ElDIabloIX).
I used to go with name koiran5 (still use it in some games like AQW), but after few years i just decided to change the name i use. I wanted a name that sounded cool, something that wasn't an English word. I have always been a little devil so i decided to use it but just translated it to a other language and don't ask why thereb is the ''El'' part, I even myself don't know it and the IX is there just because name ''ElDiablo'' is normally taken. That's my names story

Kinda boring - it's a contraction of my surname, and has been my RL nickname since forever :)
