Someone else will have to dig up the link to the post where **Master Wang Ka** runs off a passel of JW missionaries in his underwear, wielding a sword. I made 3 attempts to find it, and I don’t have all day to deal with the timeouts.
Anyway, don’t try this with Mormons, because they have [swords of their own](http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/04/23/samurai-sword-wielding-mormon-bishop-comes-to-aid-woman-being-attacked/).

Ah, the Mormon Samurai. I’ve been hearing about this guy. Lots of Mormon Ninja jokes, and _Fallout: New Vegas_ references.

I seem to remember his name as Master Kang Wa.
But in searching, both of those spellings are returned as invalid usernames, so I’m not helping much, am I?
We need a mod!
Surely there’s a list of retired usernames someplace in the hamster nest?
Whatever his name, he is sorely missed… He was a wordsmith of the highest order.

**Master Wang-Ka** - there’s a dash in there.

I think “Wang-Ka” was hyphenated. The whole name is also a semi-vulgar euphemism, which can help you remember the order of syllables.

That’s probably why my search attempts fizzled. Then laziness took over.

Is it bad that I was able to find the threads (the same tale is in two threads) with the “statistically improbably” keywords \*\*stonkered \*\*and **Toldedo** in about ten seconds?
I wish Master W was still around. I know a guy named Bobo from Faire. I’ll have to ask Bobo if he ever played Civilization.
