Hijack.
I love that game. Just struggling with the upgrade version. Damn you get killed so many times in that.
Hijack over.
As a born and bred Mancunian living in SA and driving a buggy which was more off the road than on at the time, my neighbour knowing I was a "soutie" and the buggy of German desent, he called it "Hitlers Revenge". That was 25 yrs ago now.

Well mine is pretty self explanatory. I am crazy about beetles, but as you can see from my avatar, lately I'm even more crazy about busses.

Also, my misspent youth in front of a pc playing games. I was a bit ahead of my time, so we were having some of the first LAN games in the country, this is way back in 1994 - 98! I was also looking for a unique name, and one day listening to a Massive Attack Album , there was a track playing that I really liked, Karmacoma. So I changed one letter to make it unique and that was that. Not as original as HR's story, but nevertheless. Since then, any pc games, or online forums for leisure, KARMAKOMA it is.

I, for the life of me, cannot remember at all where the name came from, I somehow recall Hennie Le Roux (Beach Buggy Club member) daring me to use it as he was the one that introduced me to the forum.
Pity it has NOTHING to do with Pamela Anderson
