Why did you choose to have your username as it is?

Geez Bro, punctuation?

I dont give a damn about grammer, hehe i went to a los angeles school, so i kinda got used to bad spelling and just plain idiocy

Gotta love that Califonain(sp? ) educashun

Hey, scratch my first post here about me choosing Surtur because of Norse mythology. I just remmbered the real reason I chose it.

Once upon a time, I was playing Wrestlemania for N64. I had created three characters: Wolfman, Aragorn, and Stilgar. Now Aragorn and Stilgar were very similar; they were both relatively large, strong, and used a lot of power attacks such as slams and piledrivers. Because of these similarities, I often used them together in tag matches. But this posed a problem - The Wolfman was light and swift, using fast attacks over slow, powerful ones. So I decided to create a fourth character, who was fast, light, and focused on running attacks such as the spear and clothesline, to be Wolfman's partner. So I created a small person, he wore no shirt but had a tribal tattoo covering his upper body. He had silver hair and a painted face. He was a madman, a berserker straight from the Cult of Oden. I had to give him name that reflected his insane destruction - and I remembered Starcraft. There was one Zerg brood wich was held back for only last resort use. A brood wich attacked friend and foe the same. That was Surter Brood, supposedly named after the "Norse god of Destruction".

I later heard that there was a dragon named Surtr, so I looked up norse texts on the web and found that it was truly Surtur, a Fire Giant/Demon who tried to bring about Ragnarok with his sword Twilight, before Oden and his brothers united to shatter Twilight.

I have a great affinity for fire, and it was amazing that three gods had to combine into one just to match Surtur's power. So I used his name for one of my 3 internet personalities.

nah...punctuation, grammar, spelling...all HUGE pet peeves of mine as well...luckily it hasnt been too bad here

oh...and before you get on to the punctuation...the apostrophe (now thats a badass word, Im tellin' ya...) is skipped on purpose because you have to move your pinky off of the letters to use it, thats why I omit it on purpose...plus, I always miss it on the keyboard when ACTUALLY trying to use it, and end up hitting the god damn return button...annoyance...anyway...moving on..

Eh Im not an english major so I dont care besides I like it this way better plus spelling counts on the internet now? You don't have to be an English major to know how to spell "insignificant" correctly... However, when I saw your username, I thought that you had spelled it that way on purpose, like, "inSINifican" (to include the word 'sin' within it)

That thought did accur to me after I misspelled it, though I thought I had spelled it correctly. I spelled it like I say it plus I have always been a horrible speller. I will make an effort to watch the punctuation for you guys. Its good practice and makes you look smarter, I have just gotten so lazy running the spell checker and hitting ok.

I use my name because if God were a killer for hire, he'd be Golgo13.

I changed my name (for the third time) because Il Palazzo (from Excel Saga) kicks ass, even if he has some slight problems...but he's still cool!

HAIL IL PALAZZOO!!!

Snafu means Hostage situation. One day I was playing Operation Flashpoint and I thought up Operation snafu, then I decided opsnafu because it was shorter.

Wonder why I didn't get into this thread much earlier.....

What does Zopwx2 mean!

I don't think you can handle the truth.

But know it is unpronouncable.

I believe I am the only person on the internet with a Zopwx name. Any variations involving different numbers are also me. Except for this one guy on a german quake clan who stole my AIM name (zopwx2) and my buddy info word for word on his site! DAm him! So don't try to jack my name..... I'll know.

all me: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UT...=UTF-8&q=zopwx2

THe story of my name: At a messageboard called Spacebattles.com, there was a Big O discussion going on. After the end of the series, I tried to keep it going for a bit longer by asking "If you could have a Megadeus, what would you call it?" I decided that mine would be called Big Prime, and be sort of a cross between Big O and Optimus Prime in appearence (though I've since decided it to be a cross between Big Duo and Prime for aesthetic reasons, and because I wanted a flying megadeus ).

Now, at the same time, I was lurking here as an unregistered guest. But I decided to join the community here, and so I needed a name that was at least semi-Big O related (I like to keep my usernames kinda related to the board at hand, if I can). So I decided that Big Prime would be the name I'd go by here.

Because it is the best username in this whole forum. Anyone who doesn't think so is just jealous of it and is a bedwetter. I know this because I am awesome!

Mr.............Quint...............well the quint i can explain but the mister...... im as confused as you are............mr.....(real name).........Mr.......(real name)..........Well i guess i could say the "Mr." is kind of classy......or i just added it because i was drunk..........But still you dont see many people named quint, ive heard a few quins but not much quints.

But then I thought about it, and seeing other R Dorothy's I figured, "Not only am I not unique, I'm tied to a name to which my personality does not quite fit."

same here. it just fit me. and plus starfire is awsm but ididn't want to steal her name so i changed the star 2 harsh-!

Well, my name is Ben, and adding Big to it would be an easy way to make it Big O related. Plus there was the added bonus that it not only can refer to a megadeus but also the clock in England (No, I'm not English). So basically my user name has three potential meanings.

Twisted Metal kicks ass plain and simple.
If there is anything I'll like for the rest of my life for certain it'll be Twisted Metal. Unless they make any more like three and four. If you haven't played any Twisted Metal games do so RIGHT NOW!! Just not three and four, they suck. No really there that bad.
Darkside also sounds way cool.

I was looking for a slightly different username. Here's my justificaton from my introduction.

Now that I'm attuned to it, I notice "Pygmalion" turning up in all sorts of places, from literature to psychology. Who knew?

Pygmalion

As for my username, it is pretty straight forward. It is my first two initials and my last name. I know, I lack originality, but I make up for it in twisted logic and incoherent rantings.

Mine was originally my fanfiction.net penname. Now, it's my net name. I love Sam, that's all.

Well Redd was the first one and she got hers from reddestiny or something like that. Then Bllue copied her cause she is Bllue. As for me Redd wanted me to be a color so I picked pinkk just cause it sounded werid. I dont really like pink at all.

R and D stands for Roger and Dorothy.
notice how my avatar has norman shootin that bad @$$ gun of his.
therefore, i am a roger and dorothy lover (norman loyalist too)!
