starting out as just "the crucified page" in 1998 because i couldn't find any sites for them, i later added "the believer page" for the same reason...using various and ridiculously long urls until 31 dec 1999 when i got the domain name as a present from my wife.

why crucifyd?...when i originally got online i wanted to use crucified for my username. since it could only be eight characters, i swapped in a "y" for the "ie" and i've been using it ever since. when i got a domain name it just seemed natural to go with this one (along with being squatted for crucified.com). however, the true significance behind the name and the ultimate reason for this entire site is stated on the back of the lp "human sacrifice" by vengeance:

"the nails were pounded into his hands and feet. cold brittle men bearing on cold brittle spikes. blood flowed freely through the open aching crevices in his flesh. a tangled crown of thorns was thrust upon his head. the warm salty mixture of blood and sweat dripped down his swollen face. his naked body, weakened and shredded by the scourgings, was lifted into place on the erect wooden stake. a nauseating convulsion forced its way through his body. driven by the need for air, he strained against gravity's grip in order to partially fill his collapsed chest. his body had become a bruised canvas, painted with hideous strokes of pain. all the sins of a hurting world were now his. the memory of ridicule and denial broke his faltering heart still more. he carried the burden of eternity on his shoulders. love submitted to pain. it was his gift. hanging on a bloodied cross..."
