TOP ain't dead. Well, the server was rooted and all hell broke loose, but TOP ain't dead.

The new server is coming along nicely.

Yeah, is that from the movie, the person, or something different?

The name from the movie comes from the person, doesn't it?

Posted by Amadeus on :

The name is basically from the play, "Amadeus" written by Peter Shafer or something rather. Basically, my real name is Peter Schafer, so it made sense to take on a "pen" name of amadeus. (but i'm not the one who wrote the play).

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

Ah...

Ziyal: Yes, the movie (or, technically, the play on which the movie was based) was named for the person. However, I was wondering if he used the name because he liked the movie (play, as it turned out) or the composer. :-)

Well actually I use the name more for its meaning, and the fact that I have the same basic name as the writer/director of the film.

Omega particle huh...yeah well it is a made up particle
