Since we're asking questions here what is the scene from the logo on the homepage from? It looks like something from Fallout 1-2 but I think the vault doors in those games were round.

[Duke 2.0]

 @ Faces of Mu: I remember those places! Great games.

 @Everybody guessing my name: It seems every time I release that factoid, people have a jolly time trying to guess it. For all your replies, I have either not heard a person with a name like that/haven't heard a dog with a name like that/Thats not my name.

 Think a Happy dog name. Nothing tough, adventurous or noble. Think of a dog with a Face of God.

 But yes, it's always fascinating to hear the stories of usernames. Mine first translated to the internet on Neopets. Messed that sucker up, so I made another one with a 1 at the end of it. Mileg was an interesting addition. My leg hurt from a recent injury, and I had stumbled across a link to a site that directs to a website I used in my youth.

[Wooty]

My name...I was signing up for some game a long time a go, runescape? I think it was. I decided on "Woot" ....already taken.So "Woot45". A year or so later puzzlepirates wouldn't let me have numbers in my name, so "Wooty". I liked that one better.

[PTTG??]

It all started with
"Petie"
then
"Peter the great"
then, for the internets:
"PTTG"
Then I forgot my password, so I became
"PTTG?"
because I needed an interesting character so my name would be different.
Then, I forgot my password again.

[DJ]

It's just my initials. My real name is Darko Jelica.

[Aqizzar]

Think a Happy dog name. Nothing tough, adventurous or noble. Think of a dog with a Face of God.

Ceasar?

Unless of course that's not an obtuse Eddie Izzard reference...

[Kagus]

Hank?

[Spelguru]

Many a many years ago, I was pondering what to name my main guy in one of them old n ancient fantasy games for a console, and my big sister suggested "spelguru"...

That's about it?

[Jetman123]

I had an early fascination with flight, space travel and the like. I always worked jetpacks into my imagination sometime. So when it came time to register my first identity on the internets, I remembered back to my old childhood days of pretending to fly around the house... and became Jetman! After an old game I used to play, as well as the other old game Jetpac.

It turns out that was taken on the site I tried to register on, so I added numbers. 123 was the easiest sequence. And I've been using it ever since. ^_^

[Zsinj]

It's just my initials. My real name is Darko Jelica.

That's an unbelieveably awesome real name.

[Dae]

Dae, just cause I like this syllable. I used it as a nicknamed for a thief in a game, and later learned it means "shadow" in elfic.
I was quite lucky.

For a time, I would've used my real first name, because no one could notice it wasn't a nickname. No one ever guessed what it is.

[Rooster]

People call me Jezus in school (Althought i scare them that I'll sacrifice them to myself). I don't know why, it just happened (or maybe its because of my very long hair?). I named myself Rooster for this forum 'cause its my chineese sign. 

[Dareon Clearwater]

"Dareon" is the mutation of my first online name, "neored13".  Yes, I was a horrible horrible fanboy.  I simply flipped the name around and shuffled the letters a little, dropping the numbers altogether.  It's served me fine in that respect on 9 out of 10 online services I sign up to.

At the times it doesn't, I add "Clearwater" which is an antonym translation of my actual middle name (Douglass, or "dark water").

Dareon was not previously taken here, but I stuck Clearwater into my display name.  No real problem when the board change dropped us to single names.

[SirPenguin]

I've honestly forgotten the origins of my name. I made it about 8 years ago, for GameFAQs. Later, I used it for AIM, then just about every forum I was part of.

I barely use it now.

[Metal Chao]

I was into sonic at the time when I invented my screen name and never bothered thinking up a new one.
