alright. no more fucking around. go in a circle and tell everyone what your callsign would be if you were a merc
mines Cloud Nine, for all the exact reasons you can imagine
When I was a sawmill summer student, the workers put Google on my hard hat because I’d just know a ton of trivia facts. So I imagine “Google” is probably what my callsign would be.
I hate that the one nickname I've gotten over the years that wasn't just some variation of my irl name was "Soapy". Not only is the story really stupid, it'd suck as a callsign.
Pizza Yote. Sword Cat. Poutine Derg. Blonde Skunk. Idk pick a headmate an stereotype them and you got ours. Knife raccoon. Meth goat
I picked Luna Arc as my callsign in DCS. Something somewhat rabbit related (special move out Mirko, the rabbit hero from My Hero Academia) and it sounds cool
I've been using Blacktip as a video game calling for a while but considering my recent theta delta mind explosion and subsequent primary species swap I. Probably should come with something new. Something new and dragony
When I started playing I found it impossible to taxi to the runway in the Frogfoot without managing to burst at least one tyre on account of taxiing too fast.
@Hazelpiney suggested it and it stuck
I always use Driftwood for Dori! It’s both ocean related and sounds a little cowboyish, but my own-OC-headcanon is that she got found washed up on a beach after an ejection early in her career and it stuck.
A callsign has to be at least a little embarrassing, like everybody thinks you’re cool until they find out you got your name from hilariously fucking up in an expensive way
My last two actual real IRL callsigns were "Speed Bump" and "Slow Ride". I was transporting steel & heavy equipment for the first one. For the second one I was running one of those trucks the government doesn't like with no speed limiters or horsepower restrictions that can cruise at triple-digit speeds fully loaded.
That's all I'm telling you.
