A couple of people have been wondering what other online names I've used. I thought I'd compile a list. Mostly I try to use Firejack but this is increasingly not possible as it is a very common name. Seems there are lots of Jacks in this world who see themselves as on fire! For those interested the reason I use Firejack is when growing up I was playing a Air Combat Simulator called Harrier Assault (or something similar) on the Amiga with my friend Dave P and I needed a cool call-sign. In that moment I thought of a car-jack that you use to change wheels and to make it more cool I added Fire and I've been stuck with the name ever since. Aaahh the wonderful mind of a 11 year old. Couldn't change the name if I wanted as most people refer to me as "Firejack" or "FJ" now and there is nothing I can do about it!

List of online aliases I've used:

  • Firejack - Used in just about every game I've played
  • Firejack_x - Used in some Zonestats games like Age of Empires and MechWarrior 4
  • Andrew - Used mostly for alternate characters, when its available.
  • CDW_Firejack - This is from Mechwarrior 4 while in Clan Diamond Wolf
  • TNGC_Firejack - Commonly used in games which I play with other people from the Community that we don't have a division setup for.
  • tngcfirejack - Same as above but for games requiring lower case names.
  • Firejacksotherhalf - Planetside
  • Macretious - Various games and Planetside
  • Sieretta - Friends character I took over in Planetside
  • Irricas - Created in WoW
  • Derecho - Created in WoW. Based on the rare Straight wind phenomenon in some Thunderstorm.
  • Inertia - Creating in WoW. Random scientific terms. Often turn to science when I can't think of names.
  • Isotherm - Created in WoW Another random science term. It means a line of constant or equal temperature.
  • Tuor - Character I played in WoW with some real life friends. Elf name for "Andrew" so I'm told.
  • Korhez - Bank character in WoW and used in the past in other games
  • Reeviun - Use from time to time. Last time in WoW
  • Yevbian - Bank character in WoW
  • TN_Firejack - Name used in World in Conflict
  • Le Fire Jacque - Alt name from Pirates of the Burning Sea. I was playing as the French ;)


My all time favourite games list

  1. Planetside
  2. Mechwarrior 4
  3. World of Warcraft
  4. Medieval 2 - Total War. Probably the best battles ever seen in RTS games. Formations matter, flanking is important, using the terrain is essential. A true test of strategy and skill. Often battles involve lots of manoeuvring followed by a fight to the death between the last units alive. A epic campaign mode. Thats intriguing and engaging with fun scripted events that shake up the gameplay (crusades, natural disasters). Game unfortunately flawed by poor multiplayer support and true multiplayer campaign gamemode that would of made this my second favourite game of all time. Sieges were often bugged in terms of path finding, campaigns became frustrating with large empires because of Corruption and Distance to the capitol negative city effects. Many interesting game mods. Awesome graphics and animations.
  5. Half Life 2

Games Played not on above list

  1. Demigod
  2. Fallen Earth
