Orac is a little box which can interface with any and all computers. It dislikes illogic and silly people, and tends to ignore them.


...Tore is an awesome name though. Norwegians get all the best ones tongue.gif

A couple years ago when I first saw you, I thought it was just for spelling orca as orac.

Well, originally it was just "Bolt" and then someone convinced me to put Omega on the front. Bolt came from Bolter, which I used once when Boltgun (WH40k) was taken.

Well tumsun was the first the first online community i joined way back in the day and at first I wanted to make my online alias something based on the tiberian fiend but in the end I setled on ORCACommander because the orca fighter fighter was my favorite unit not exactly where i took commander from. It is bloodreign now because dats made me an awesome sig and said he wouldn't give it to me unless I changed my name to something more noddish

Mine was meant to be the name of a character in a fiction short story I planned on writing. I never got around to it but once I started registering on forums and such, I remembered the name and started using it!

When I was trying to make up the name, the 'alt' part came from the keyboard key and 'zan' just followed it out of my imagination tongue.gif

I knew they were the same because I went to the topic "Welome New Members" and Bloodreign's coding had Name=ORCACommander.
