Toaster Retribution Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I read the intro, so I get why we have ookla in our names. But I still can't stop wondering two things: 1. What is an ookla? 2. Should it be a rank achieveable by rep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'ookla' was his name, 'mok' was his....race or something. 2) Maybe. It might be for all we know, since i dont believe all rep ranks are currently know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Am Witless Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 Hopping on the bandwagon here. I noticed earlier that there was this one person named "ookla" who was really active on the forums, but it was just all of you guys doing your thing, and me mistaking you all for each other. Good job confusing ookla the witless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm reasonably sure that there's also a band which Peter loves (which probably takes its name from the character), which is where the original handle came from.

There is that as well. That said, i personally am not sure which he took the name from, though on TWG he did use an avatar that was a picture of the thundarr character.

It will settle down a bit, but we'll have spikes of activity from other published books. Admittedly not as big as from OB, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
