I always pronounce it as lee-ar, as in king lear, the celtic god Leir, and princess leah from starwars.

My username comes from a line in Cyrus's speech, "standing with nine delegates from a hundred gangs".

In the past, i've gone under the usernames of PerFecShauN and Shaunographic.  I use Ninth Delegate for various non warriors related sites, so if you see that name anywhere, its most likely me.

Actually reminds me of an old movie clip called "Hardware Wars"- which was a spoof on Star Wars. I was also a fan of The Great Space Coaster as a kid, dunno why I didn't think of that.

Anyway, I chose my username after another gang movie I liked since all the cool warrior names seemed to be taken, like Swan or Ajax, etc.
