    License plate ideas (Quake related)

    Hey all. For my new 2012 Jeep Wrangler, I wanted to do a custom plate that's Quake related and I need some suggestions. Yes, it sounds a little crazy, but just after Q3 came out I found out that you can host your own server and back then I was into PC's, but as a hobby. Well, after doing servers, large LANs, etc, I went and got a degree in Information Security and now make a comfortable living at almost 6 figures.

    That being said, I wouldn't have gotten that extra boost without Q3, honestly, so I think it'd be cool if I could figure out a plate.

    I see that QUAKE is already taken in my state, but I don't want to be so direct about it. Something relating to Quake would be better. Something that Quake players would know what it meant and not your average Joe.

    Thoughts?

    So far I've only come up with:

    STRAFE
    AIRRKT

    "In video games, strafing is the technique of moving the player's character from side to side, rather than forward and backward."... you would look extremely ridiculous with that as a plate.

    AIRRKT without context could be anything.
    Aways ensure you are maintaining a high FPS rate in QL. Otherwise you can be at a big disadvantage. To find out your current fps rate, use the command: "set cg_drawfps "1"".

    hey u -

    here are my ideas for you!

    N3TFURY (which is your QL name - haha)
    Q3A-QL (your first quake game and the current quake live)
    QL-FFACTF (quake live with your 2 most played games - Free For All and Capture The Flag)
    QLIVE (that is what my wicked T-Shirt says! haha - people like it and ask me where i got it from)
    QLSARGE (your current quakelive model in your profile)

    i think most q'rs would catch the plate - whereas everyone else will not get it at all - which is what u are hoping for

    one thing about QLSARGE - i don't know if some military person will be offended? cuz they might think it means "kill sarge"?

    oh well. if i think of some more, i will email u!
    bye
    ~m~

    All good suggestions! I'm not sure I could get away with SHAFT though, that may be a bit much :P

    But if you know Quake, you know better than that. Strafe also has a military meaning: "Strafing is the practice of attacking ground targets from low-flying aircraft using aircraft-mounted automatic weapons." Yeah, I'm not sold on AIRRKT, but I plan on having a small Quake symbol on the rear window high and center, so that'd be the context.

    I really like Q3DM6 so far too.
