Why did you choose your name?

An Oxymoronic name. Evolution is supposedly "Not Holy" and Divine="Holy".

BTW, just in case, Im not calling you a moron. Oxymoron means pretty much "Self Contradictory"

 

i was pretty hard into halo when i started getting into dreamcast collecting. now it stuck.

 

ahahaha HAHAHA oops

concerning my name:

about 7 years ago when i started painting walls, ok lets say spraying grafitti, i was in need of a cool nickname, because unbranded writings suck! it was at the time when metal gear solid was released for the psx and as you all remember there was the guy called liquid, but liquid with d looked shit and was boring and common, so i used liquitt ( ocelot sounded too animal'ish for me )

ps: some of my early works are branded LiQUiD and it really looks shit

 

The "Wangan" is a famous stretch of highway around Tokyo, frequented by street racers (hashiriya) and often used as a testing ground for cars from famous Japanese tuning shops (Top Secret most notably, but also many others).

"WanganRunner", thus, would be someone who runs the wangan.

I'm almost always either this or "hashiriya" on most forums, regardless of whether it's a car forum or not.

 

Real name Adrian Wheelan - User id at work Wheelaa - Joined ebay/forums with this ID and have kept it ever since! Yawn, how interesting is that

 

I've used this name on everything since 1999. What happened is I was trying to think of a Battle.net name and I went to plug something in and fell and the moniter cable says frequency on it, and 8 looks cool as a roman numeral, plus I had FF8 sitting on my desk, so I put these into a blender and made frequencyviii. Earlier that day I was reading a Phishbone lyric sheet, and they spelled "Phuq", and I was like "AWESOME I'm going to spell f PH now!!!15." So I did, and got PhreQuencYViii. lolololo. Some people think I'm trying to spell "freak" in it, and I'm not. You've now been blessed with knowing the origin of my name. :thumbsup:

The first name I had for AOL in 95 was sonic2, then in 97 my email and things were Rinoa_14_Sonic, and then for a month or 2 it was Sonic24Shadow. Hooray...

 

When I first got a computer I decided to name myself "SecretTyrant". This decision was made because I am a big Resident Evil Freak. This being my first foray into computer-ness I found many times claiming that there were all kinds of secrets in the game. So I thought about the story endlessly, and what possible secrets the ending could have held. I noticed that there was a door near the helipad (it doesnt open, and its welded shut), and I thought to myself Hey maybe the tyrant escaped through there! It would then be in the forest as a "Secret Tyrant" So I took that name.

Sometime after that about 2 years or so, I renamed myself to "T_1000Nemesis". Again, this is all Resident Evil related. The Tyrants in the games have code names, and the first one in RE1 has the code T103, so I thought Hey whats better than 103? 1000 BABY!!! (hahaha) and since RE3 just came out, what better than pretending I was the combination of a t1000 and the Nemesis (no its not related to Terminator, but it does look that way).

About 3 years ago, I realized that name was very stupid and could be taken the wrong way. So while I was playing through Half-Life opposing force I came across a crate...It said on it ".50Cal". I thought to myself..Hmm that could be interesting but how could I distinguish it from a .50 calibur round more? So I changed the . to Dot and Dot50Cal was born.

Though, I regret it sometimes when I have to give my emails out to people in real life. They just sorta stare at me....lol

 

ray:

 

I used to be a magician in order to make a little cash in high school, I always had a few decks of cards in my pocket. Somewhere along the lines, i picked up the nickname Ace in the real world. Unfortunately that doesn't translate well in the digital relm as it's usually taken, or too short. Since I became a programmer, i threw together "ProgrammingAce". I think these days more people know me as Ace then by my real name.

 

Cool names.

 

I went with Mr.Saturn because I wanted to use an earthbound reference and I was quickly growing tired of the nick I used before which was simply "shenmue"(I choose the name shenmue a few years before the game was released and kept it for a good year after release even though I didn't really care for the game).

Starting to think it may be time for a new name though. I've seen too many Mr.Saturn's recently and I don't want to get lost in the sea of small, androgynous, ribbon wearing balls of joy.

 

My username stems from the one time when I was up in Maine on a road trip. We drove past this place that had a sign out front that said "All you can eat lobsters (don't remember the price, but it was damn cheap)". Being from Pennsylvania where one lobster in the grocery store can run you $9-10, we all said "hells yeah!" and stopped. I must have sat there for about two hours eating steamed lobsters... I think the waitress was getting pretty annoyed by the end of it. Well when I finally finished the last lobster I could eat, I let loose a roar and shouted "I am the king of the lobsters!" which had all my friends along with half the restaurant cracking up.

Anyways... me and my one buddy were reminicing about all the crazy times we've had and I just happened to be changing my eBay screenname at the same time, it popped into my head, and it stuck. Even created a goofy little logo that I put at the top of all my auctions:

 

And precisely WHAT is wrong with that??

 

Isn't the whole point of Mr. Saturns that they all look alike...you can't tell em apart?

 

I use "Rabid Peanut-Butter" in alot of places because it makes no sense and is never ever taken.

 

Lol, i was wondering about that.

And it matches your avitar so well.

 

Lobsters are a big inside joke here between me and my friends, So every time I see your name I crack up. It helps even more that you live pretty close by. BEST.IMAGE.EVER.

 

AimBob

My old days in Counter Strike I simply used the name Rob. Whilst in my old clan I was often called hacker, and was said to be using Aimbots. Some of the members also called me Bob from time to time. Aimbot + Bob = AimBob.

 

I go by Slang Auxillary mostly but some reason I picked NeoAux for this board.As if there arent enough people with Neo in there name here.And no im not a Matrix fan...Anymore.
