My original program was called ChessCraft. I was a huge fan of the old game WarCraft II, so it was a natural choice. Later I found the name idea was already taken by Crafty, I didn't want people thinking I just plagerized the name, so I had to find a new. The best choices I could come up with were: Sirius - it is the brightest star on the northern hemisphere. Quazar - from 'quasar', a most powerful phenomenon in the early Universe, probably caused by the forming of new galaxies, great mystery still surrounds the understanding of those objects. TeereX - my gamer name, used it for 2 years playing Unreal. Frenzee - from 'frenzy'. I picked Frenzee, Deep Frenzee sounded better than any of the other Deep **** names, also because I thought people would understand the name and I wouldn't have to explain it over and over, the third reason being it is not a real 'brag' name that indicates brilliant play beyond what it could deliver. -S.
