How can I include the name of my node in subVer  ???
E.g., these guys are likely doing it to advertise their pool:
Code:
"subver" : "/mining.bitcoinaffiliatenetwork.com chicago:0.10.99/",

You don't.

1) The version indicates the version of the client running.   If you can't figure this out then you obviously are not running a customized client.
2) It is about the stupidest form of "advertising".  Something which is only available in logs or debug panel. 

Just because someone else does something idiotic to spoof the network doesn't mean you need to follow them.
