Jarool "Jarool" is an alter ego of BlameTC that was derived a nickname Guude gave BTC at MineCon 2013, "Jor-El".[2] Rob changed the pronunciation to "Jah-rool" for his "KARATE MASTER" video so that it would rhyme with "school".[3] The nickname had become associated with penguins after Rob created his Pingu-dubbed "Jarool does Redstone" video. The association with penguins gained further popularity after Etho created penguins on the Feed the Beast server, naming one Jarool, and pronouncing it "Jay-rool". Rob's penguin suit skin used on his Rurikar22 Minecraft account became somewhat of the "official Jarool skin,"[4] despite the skin existing well before the on-going joke.[5] 12 Nov 2013
