    What is it with people having realistic alter-egos? I've spent the last couple of years that I've been reading Hexus thinking that he was called something like Pete Deckard

    Next you'll all be saying that Zak33 isn't actually called Zak, Vaul isn't called Mike Vaul esq. and that Lowe is pronounced Low instead of Looooovayyyyy.

    Congratulations all the same though dude.

    I think its a reference to his inability to play flight sims really and he tends to hit the "deck" on carrier ships "hard" so they added the 2 together and came up with DECK'ARD which in turn made him look like a Goa'uld from SG-1 so they dropped the ' and its was DECKARD and now Nick

    Looking forward to some more of your honest opinions Deck, you may yet become famous on SimHQ.
    To err is human. To really foul things up ... you need a computer.

    I like the say that after being told of the name change, people were saying "congrats Deck"!

    Congratulations Nick.

    Oh, and Theo, is your name Theodore then?
