Re: Why did you choose your username?

here's how i got my rubbish user name i want to change so badly to sumthin cool...

well...wait for it...you'll never guess...MY NAME IS JACK! OMGish! no way!  and 08jackt was the user name i had for computers at my old primary school. the t stands for my last name, and 08 stands for the last year i would be primary school...now at high school  its talboj, (j stands for jack and talbo is part of my last name) but that just sounds even MORE gay, so i just stuck with this.

yeah  smile

Re: Why did you choose your username?

Well, Sanda... I actually made a typo. XD My username is a Typo. It was supposed to be SANDRA, the main character in my story that was around 200 pages long. I really love that name too...My deviantart username has much more of a history.

Re: Why did you choose your username?

Well... my story is pretty weird... In fourth grade I started to get obsessed with the series the Warriors, and In third grade I got COMPLETELY OBSESSED over Koalas, so ... in fifth grade I made up"warrior koalas" But I just wrote wk....
Why am I saying this?
Well... Many of you may pronounce my name boog-awk but it's really booga-wk...

WHERE DID THE BOOGA COME FROM?
Booga is a word I came up with in fifth grade also which kind of represented awesomeness. I made a restaurant in my bedroom too, called booga. (I actually served food!)

But don't change how you pronounce my name- I think I prefer it pronounced boog-awk now too.   smile

Re: Why did you choose your username?

Kinda stupid...

For infinex, my brother made it up.

For TimeFreeze, it's a strange and stupid (like I said above) story. My brother was playing prince of persia at the time, and I was watching. I thought of what it would be like if I made a thing that is kind of like a pun, a clock freezing, showing that time froze. So, I created an animated gif on scratch, and it was actually my pic for a while. I think it's still on my account TimeFreezeInferno...

Mine has a long and stupid story attached to it.

In the fifth grade, I gave out this weekly comic series called redwood, which is about these friends at a camp(unoriginal, I know.). The climax kinda involved the world's tallest Redwood tree, so I guess that's where I got the "tree" part of my username.

The floating part is an inside joke. I am NOT telling it to you guys.

The magic part.....well, I am a good magician, so I guess that's where it came from.

I read this over, and it sounded kind of stupid. Just like me.

Lol!

Re: Why did you choose your username?

Here's a story: I started out on Nick.Com as sponge3140. After a while, I got bored of it. Then I went on random sites until I found webkinz (middle '07 BEFORE IT WAS GIRLY). I registered as frogger3140 since my first webkinz was a frog. I quit in middle 2008 since it got too girly (lip gloss, series 3 cards, etc.). I THEN GOT MAH WIKIPEDIHOLIC BADGE UNTIL LATE 2008 WHEN I GOT BLOCKED FOR HAGGER?????????? Then I registered on Scratch.

Woo, even better minecraft clone! | I feel that programming is better than animation, because you can interact with games but not animations.

My real name is sometimes mispronounced, such that the last part of my name sounds an awful lot like the word "cheddar". Then everyone started calling me "cheddar" and I'm recognized that way. The name "cheddar" was already taken when I arrived here on SCRATCH, so I went with "cheddargirl", instead.

That, and I love cheese (despite my lactose intolerance issues  tongue ).

ARE YOU REALY LACKTOSE INTOLERANT?

Re: Why did you choose your username?

I chose my name because of a puzzle game with an excellent story that I LOVED called steppenwulf. In that game, you play as steppenwulf and megan,  as you attemt to capture monsters such as the yeti, chupacabra, haruka etc... Everyone should try it, it is very puzzling with a great story.


I'm graduating HS this April and going to college in the Fall.

Re: Why did you choose your username?

this is why i choose my username, when i was little and i visted my aunt alot she always called me mini me because she said i looked like her and acted like her when she was that age. so she called me mini- i'm a mini version of her and me- because she as refering to a mini version of herself. pretty simple. i don't know why i choose it , but i did and for people who notice details in my username i spelt me with an i not an e because when  i tried it with a e it was rejected, but that makes me unique
