The Shrine

Started playing Friday, and I'm already pretty addicted to the game. Took a while getting used to things, but it's amazing just how deep they make a tanks-type game. Even at five years old, it doesn't seem to be filled with elitist assholes that abuse tricks in the game, since the developers seem to still care about fixing problems. I remember playing Worms 3D online, and it was nothing but people that used the grappling hook over and over.

GameFAQs has a lot of good information on the game, since the official web site doesn't say much about the actual game.

My nick is CoSineSwiper, because somehow, somewhere, somebody seems to have stolen my nick.

You could say they're a SineSwiper-swiper.

Heh. I have a few different alternate nicks. I thought of them when I was on IRC and clones were popular for channel takeovers (like 6-8 years ago before Nick/ChanServ). TangentTarget, ArcSineSwiper, ArcTangentTarget. I had another one for Cosine that had another C part to it (CosineC-something). I also used SINSwiper for IRC server that only used 9 characters, but too many ppl thought it meant "Sins Wiper", which seems to have heavy religious overtones, so I dropped it.

What is the idea behind your nick, anyway? I've always wondered...

Totally random. I picked it out of the blue one day. It's funny because it fits so well with "Resonator Software" (which I didn't factor in with my nick at all), and as a DJ name. Makes me want to grab a turntable and learn to mix, but I'm too old for that shit.
