Scratch Nicknames

Well, cheddargirl said to start one if we wanted to, and I do, so I did! Doesn't it seem weird that pretty much everyone on Scratch has a nickname? Ex. cheddargirl=cheddar, Paddle2See=Paddle, etc. How come I don't have one?  tongue

Re: Scratch Nicknames

I just saw that topic and I though "Hmm... Why don't I create a such thread" so I clicked inspiration & moe and I saw you already created one :p

Re: Scratch Nicknames

Lol, my nicknames are HWL and Half-Wolf.
For you, I'm not sure. I think it's because your username requires some thinking. *supports the post above me*

Re: Scratch Nicknames

Your username is kinda long but I always prefer to write the whole username.
If a new member sees a nickname like MRN, he/she will probably not know who that is.

Exactly! There's more examples. People just seem to take the first part of the username. I like it. They're not that hard to catch on to.

Re: Scratch Nicknames

Or, a funny thing I made up, you could take the first 3 letters.  tongue  So...

Magnie = Mag - Mine is same  tongue
Gershmer = Ger - Not bad
markyparky56 = Mar - Mars?
Filo5 = Fil - Who's Fil?
Paddle2See = Pad - What Pad?
andresmh = and - Here 'and' there
floppy_gunk = Flo - Flo! Where are you Flo?
gettysburg11 = get - Get what?
fg123 = fg1 - Not bad
floatingmagictree = Flo - More Flo's?
demosthenes = dem - I don't know
jacool = jac - Jack Jac, what's the difference?
Half-Wolf-Leader = Hal - Another I don't know

Lol.

Re: Scratch Nicknames

My nickname would need something different from that, as you've pointed out. I'll see what I can come up with.

Yeah, you can't really shorten mine either, except from removing the three 1's

I call him Getty too. But sometimes I also call him Gettys. Gettys sound better, IMO.
