[CaliGirl]:  From a name like Nemmy to WildChild to Demon bunny and snot. You seem to be a person who likes to go under cover with various aliases. Is there a moment you can share when your gamer friends didn't know who you were at first?

[Wildchild]:  Most of the names I play as haven't really been used to go under cover as such, but there was an alias I had a lot of fun with back in my Quake 2 days. I am a member of an all weap Freeze Tag clan called Tender Loving Killers. TLK is known as a fun bunch of people who show good sportsmanship and never talk trash in servers. I was a decent Q2 player, and
was pretty good with the railgun. The Q2 Freeze Tag community was a very small close knit group with about 8 clans if that and one or two popular servers that we all played on every nite. When a new person showed up in the mod everyone noticed them. One day I was sort of in a bad mood and just wanted to frag and not chat kinda thing. I made up the name BarStar and went in and played. I guess I was playing kind of cheap, chat killing, spawn killing, just being a real llama and people were getting pretty annoyed,
throwing comments at me and I gave it right back. I used that name quite a few times and was getting people pretty mad at me.

One night I was having a very good game, you know where you just dont miss, and omg the whining  I was hearing, stuff like omg noway, bs, bot! etc I was killing myself laughing. Just before the end of the map I changed my name to {TLK}Nemmy and everyone was OMG is that you Nem? We all had a good laugh. I did sort of the same thing in Quake 3 with the name St@rbuck. I never told anyone that alias was me, but I guess they know now hehe.

[CaliGirl]:  Iron Thong seems to stand out as a creative nick. Did you get treated any different using that nick name? 

[Wildchild]:  The credit for that nickname goes to my best friend Tinkerhell. She was using the alias IronBra as kind of a joke, you cant kill me I have my iron bra on kind of thing. I was using IronUndies for awhile but she said oh thats too boring use IronThong. Next thing ya know we had a bunch of Irons playing with us. It's just something we do for fun, to liven up a server. One night we will get everyone playing as the Bradys, next night it might be fav rock bands. So no, I haven't really been treated differently using that name, its just all in fun.

[CaliGirl]:   What is the first movie you saw that made you fall head over heals for Vin Diesel?

[Wildchild]: That would have to be the movie Pitch Black.

[CaliGirl]:  There seems to be a history with the Ladies of Quake. Can you talk a little about the clan? How it started, where you first heard about it? Is it still active?

[Wildchild]:  None of us were members of LoQ long enough to really say we have a history with them. I was only a member for a month or so. My friend Sh4dy had joined LoQ and told me they were recruiting to put a couple of teams in a tourney so I joined up. When the tourney was over some of us newer members decided to move on. The clan was just too big with 15 or so members and only 4 or 5 needed to play in a match. So Akina, Sh4dy and I moved on and formed Twisted Sistahz. Silky, Summie, Xaiolynn and Icey followed us shortly after that. LoQ is still active. As a matter of fact we had an OGL ladder match with them just recently. LoQ is a great bunch of ladies and we consider them our friends.

[CaliGirl]:  Real Life Shows like Surreal Life, I'm a Celebrity get me out of here, Batchelor, High School Reunion to name a few have increased in numbers. What if they made a show like this but it consisted of a handful of gamers or even professional gamers on how they live their gamer life all in one house. Would you watch this show? Or what would it need to peak your interest to watch it?

[Wildchild]:  I pretty much gave up watching TV when I started gaming about 5 years ago. I haven't watched any of those reality shows, well except for The Osbornes. OMG that is one funny show. I don't think a show about gamers would go over too well. "Outsiders" wouldn't understand it, and I don't know about other gamers but I'd rather be online gaming than watching someone on TV doing it. Gamers are a unique group of people with our online lives, our own lingo, politics etc.  I have told a few real life friends about my gaming and they kind of gave me a strange look and said "so you play this game and chat and hangout with people you don't really know?"  They just don't get it at all.

[CaliGirl]:  What do you feel makes the Twisted Sistahz clan stand out among other clans in general (all female or coed). 

[Wildchild]:  What makes us stand out. hmm... I guess the fact that we aren't just a group of giggling women out there flirting in servers. We are a small close group of friends who share a passion for gaming. We are a fun bunch to hang with, but when it comes match time we put on our game face, pull out our railguns and take care of business. We can hold our own. I think we stand out because we show great class when we win, we aren't out there bragging about what clan we "owned" and if we lose we lose graciously.

Shoutouts - > I wanna give a big shoutout to my hubby Infernal who got me started in this gaming stuff, to my TLK clan brothers and sister...woot! TLK rocks! to my best friend Kreepy aka Tinkerhell, hi sis cant wait to see ya at the end of the month. A big hi to clans MoH, OtH, L0D, DLC, PQ, Xhale, and IAF, and to my friend D3m0nikk from clan Monarchs Of Hell who just bought a kewl internet/gaming cafe in Hollywood called BadLanz where I will be attending a big LAN the end of March.
