firstRainbowRose Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Also known has Happy Birthday Peter! For all of you newbies around here, this is a fun little tradition we have on 17S. Back on Brandon's original forums Peter used to have the username of Ookla the Mok, and to honor him we have started once a year, on his birthday and for about the week after, changing out names to "Ookla the __". The original plan was for it to be a im--- word, in the style of his acknowledgement titles, but at this point you can do anything you want! So, join us in becoming an Ookla yourself, and see if you can figure out who everyone else is! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eerongal Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I was just coming here to post this today! Looks like i was beaten to the punch for the first time ever though! The tradition is broken! Eero is a free elf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Didn't even realize you could change your name. Seems to be a fitting way to use it for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurkistan Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I always rather dislike how hard it is to ID people during this period... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Joe in the Bush Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 It's only annoying if they have the default picture. You're obviously Kurkistan. The Only Joe is above you, then Seonid, Observer, Erongal, and firstRainbowRose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vision Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 This is a very interesting away to celebrate a birthday, hahaha. But I'll gladly take part. What's his actual birthdate? Thanks for informing us newbies! (And I thought getting to know people was hard enough without a week-long identity switch where all the names start the same way...)

Fatebreaker Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I wondered what was going on. Well, let it never be said that the Dark Alley didn't appreciate the Illustious Peter. So Happy Existence Day Peter! Congratulations on another Scurvy-free year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shardcellist Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Um, does my name choice give me permission to still post here? Happy Birthday Peter! I must say, it sure was confusing when I saw all the Ookla names without knowing what was going on. Especially the ones with familiar pictures.
