I was going to call you BJ, but I didn't know if that was a good idea I think someone in the shout box came up with it.
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

Didn't your other avatar also have the letters "BJ" on it?

There's always the "Jannie"
It took me a while to start using people's nicknames out of politeness overkill. In the end, I just got sick of typing "Invisible Brainiac" in Spaceopoly.
I like throwing in an "Ibbster" every so often.
"Fickles" just makes me smile. Tracker is the shortened version, but when I post a response to a thread he's on, it comes with it's own theme tune. "It's Tracker. The Legion Tracker." I have no idea why.
Incidentally, Tracker is clearly so named for his remarkable survival ability to follow people droppings back to civilisation! Well, someone said "organically"

A very good guess, but that's not it.

Rocky probably won't tell us why until this thread is dead Is it because Tracker followed the LMB throgh various message boards until reaching us here?

I tend to call Mllash "Lasher". It just tickles me that he gets stuck together with Lashina in my head that way.
Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops!
Something pithy!

I suspect thinking about interests that Rocky and Tracker share in common might provide a clue.

I came up with BraJa. I thought I did. Is this a "great minds" thing...or did I copy you?

I'm pretty sure it was a Rocky Originalâ„¢. As for Tracker's own nickname, I said I wouldn't give a hint, but here's one. That common interest is not Legion comics.

I would think the massive hint you gave on pg. 4 would be enough.

But..but..I'm only on page two with my settings. If it was the organ thing then organ+church=showing off certain organs to raise money for the church roof in strip joints. playing church organs!
Tracker got his name therefore, by... um...tracking down (church)organ donors and shipping them across the nation. He got by for years before the authorities found out they weren't getting anything delivered to hospitals.
Now a wanted fugitive, Tracker posts to LW from hide outs across the land. All tracker's posts are actually in code, giving precise directions on where the next secret organ recital will be held. Yes, it's a simple tale once you have all the clues.

Nice try, Thothy. While it has everything to do with organs, that's not quite it. I think we have to give EDE the Internet.

Now what do I have to give thothy for getting this part right too? Any particular organs you're in need of, my friend? Alternatively, how much do you want for your pistons?

Google "Tracker action". I'm not spending a night in jail falling for that one...again Now what do I have to give thothy for getting this part right too? Any particular organs you're in need of, my friend? A brain? Some heart? A liver (but I'd need to see the wine list first )Choices, choices... Alternatively, how much do you want for your pistons? What did the doctor tell you about my pistons? They work fine I tell you! fine!

So now that BraJa has become Indian Lad, should we now call him Indy?
