I'd like to know where you got your names from.. Did you just take them from the movie 13th Pooper, or have been all intellectual and read Beowulf or Egil's/Njal's/Kings' saga to find your names? I've been planning to buy Egil and Njal's sagas and read them myself, but I never had time / spare cash.. So what's the story behind the names?

Well, will make the story behind "Harald den HÃ¥rfagre" a bit short, but he loved a woman who rejected to marry him before he had gathered the entire norway, so he made himself a promise not to cut his hair before he had gathered the entire kingdom and married this woman then. So at the end Harald managed to conqoure entire norway and some parts of sweden, but if i don't remember wrong the woman still rejected to marry him! that's all i remember =/

Ravnkel was from Iceland. He made himself a home and ended up with a whole village, and treated the ppl how it pleased himself, but wtf? they had chosen themselves to live there. Then he had a guy working for him, and Ravnkel had a horse. Ravnkel told the guy NOT to touch his horse. If he did, he'd kill him. not cus he liked killing ppl, just cus it was his horse, and nobody else were allowed to touch it. Then The Guy was taking care of Ravnkel's (my) sheep, and of course.. that went wrong. some of them were gone, and The Guy meant his only chance to get them back was to take MY horse and go find them. Ravnkel found out cus the horse was exhausted and stuff like that. So Ravnkel killed The Guy although he didn't really want to. The Guy's father (called Harald) was pissed and he gathered some ppl who thought he was right (coughlyingsonofabitchcough) and met up with Ravnkel (who was alone, cus harald had told evryone sheet about Ravnkel) and they made a council. They all kinda declared war at Ravnkel, so Ravnkel went home. At night they all sneaked up at Ravnkel's fortress. They cut some muscles on his feet(dunno what they're called. In danish it's something like akilde-senen). but harald didn't want to kill him. He just threw him outta his home and took it as his own. So Ravnkel went to the coast, and started building a new home. Soon he had a whole village again, and harald was out on some trip with some of his friends. Ravnkel planned an ambush, and killed harald. Then he went home again and took his own home. Then he had two villages. own4g3. But the matter of fact is... he PWNED THAT BASTUD HARALD!!! (not you Harry)

well I got my name from the Egil Skallagrimsson saga... which btw was a amazing story... I borrowed them from my teacher who had a large collection of Sages from Iceland... If you are considering to buy one of them, I would suggest Egil Skallagrimsson. It has got it all. dunno how much it costs but its really good and btw Harald... Harald HÃ¥rfagre (or how its spelled ;D ) he goddam banned me and Egil from Norway so I dislike you j/k

I used to play by name Zisu, nick i use everywhere but rune nowadays. It origins over 15 years ago when I was 9, in school. Other kids called me names and one was Jesus (my real name is Jussi), don't ask me why - probably because i got annoyed by it. Jesus is pronounced Ziisus and year later I was already Zisu. I guess Zidane visited Finland and saw me play football and asked someone who that brilliant player is and after that he stole my name and skills.
