SWM
Who is SWM?
SWM first stumbled across Allakhazam as he was needing some help on a game he had just bought called World of Warcraft. This was September 2006 and his first post appeared in WoW general on 20th September. It can be found here His posting name back in the early days was Satanwantsme.
Satanwantsme lol?
I chose it because it has been my username on everything I ever signed up for on the internet. Its a song title from a cd I was listening to on the day I signed up to AOL. I had always been terrible at picking user names and so I just went with what was in front of me at the time. Before Satanwantsme I was known as OKComputr (without the e) and used to play around in an irc channel called #Cybersexier, which despite its name wasnt a porn channel but was just a smallish group of people talking crap to each other to pass the time. I also played an MMORPG called Alien Adoption Agency for several years where I was known as Charlatan. Anyway back to the name, the song Satan Wants Me comes from an album by Luke Haines and The Auteurs called Das Capital. Time went by and as I posted more I was getting some amusing comments such as "why does Satan Wants You? lulz". It became annoying so I started up a new account. This was quickly noticed by one of the admins who informed me that if I really didnt like my name I could get a name change. I asked for SWM but unfortunately it was taken and I went back to posting on Satanwants me. I continued to get irritated by my name and asked again for the SWM name, this time i was told that since it had been so long since the existing SWM had logged in that I could have it. So I took the name. After the name change it was pointed out that SWM is actually an acronym of "single white male". I decided that I could live with that.

What other games apart from Warcraft have you played
None, WoW is the only game I have ever played. I used to use a website called YTMND which allows you to upload an image and an audio file. I came across this and figured that there could be much lulz to be had by playing the game.
