Re: How did you get your username?

On most other sites I'm known as jallen. So if you ever find a jallen, it's most likely me!

Re: How did you get your username?

Relyt is my name backwards (Tyler) and when I signed up for other sites Relyt was already taken, so 12101 somehow got picked (probably via a sites' random generator) to be added to the end. The whole thing Relyt12101 is what I took around to other sites with me/

Re: How did you get your username?

Unfortunately, "fullmoon" is taken on pretty much every site, so I end up with names like "fullmoonMedia".

Re: How did you get your username?

Well... I know it's weird, but I got the name "Cocoanut" because I like coconuts, cocoa, nuts, and more nuts!  tongue  But, like Fullmoon, "cocoanut" is usually taken, so I put my last initial at the end. It turns out to be something like "cocoanutv."

Re: How did you get your username?

Um..... Hobbs is my last name and 1100 is my house number..... I forgot about the whole "personal information" thing and the name just stuck. But in Online video games, I'm either "Hobbs(Canada)" or "HobbsCanuck" cuz I'm Canadian (We do not live in igloos. Not even in the Northwest Territories. Up there they do infact live in homes). Let's not get started about the story of my passwords I use. Lol.

Re: How did you get your username?

I *am* SonicPops' dad  smile

It's actually an homage to someone else too.   

I play a game called Day Of Defeat, and have played it for years and years and years.  It was originally created by a guy who called himself 'Fuzz'.  He went off to college, but his dad got interested in it and created a bunch of maps for the game.  He's still involved in the development. 

His name?

'FuzzDad'  smile

Re: How did you get your username?

Haven't played Day Of Defeat: Source, but I do play Counter-Strike: Source. I guess you play Half-Life 2, right? Another pretty good multi-play FPS is called Combat Arms. It's free. Just search Combat Arms on Google.

Re: How did you get your username?

OK. Since a few people asked me, the source of "Chalkmarrow" is pretty random, and geeky, and not at all related to teaching (i.e., "chalk" boards).

Years ago I used to play Everquest with my friends living in other states (an odd form of social networking), and the first character I created was an Iksar (half lizard), monk. My son and I brainstormed cool names that sounded "monk"-like, and suggested dryness, brittleness, etc. And because the starting zone in that game was called "field of bone," and there are bones everywhere, I wanted something suggesting bones. Hence: "chalk" (very dry, brittle) + "marrow" (center of a bone). The other character names I had were Chalkveins (a shaman, I think), and Rigormantis (a shadowknight).
I did a google search as Fullmoon mentioned but the occasional hits related to other forums are not me.

The zany user name I want to learn more about is "Jens." What's up with that?  smile

Probably his name. You went to the conference so youwould know this, but it's pronounced Yens.

And your username might also explain your icon.

Re: How did you get your username?

i got my username from the first time a made a user name which was a looooooooooong time ago when i was 8. i was about to start neopets and my brohers username was rtv123 and i wanted to copy him (just like any other 8 year old would) but he said NO, so i added a 5 and jcv1235 was born. It's used for pretty much any website i sign up to now!

Re: How did you get your username?

I think- OMG, I just heard the 2nd loudest strike of lightning in my life!.... anyways, I don't think that JBEAR needs to be explained. I actually think JBEAR just forgets to turn off caps lock and he types all in caps..... another super loud lightning strike.... dang. Eastern and Southern Ontario are being pumbled by storms. When will it end....

Sorry for spamming.

Well, the power spiked and rebooted the computer and stuff. Sorry again, but it is related to my post above.

So far I didn't have a storm yet today. A record! But yes, I was wondering about JBEAR. I just thought he was always mad.

Oh my bad. I meant to remove the "don't", cuz I do wonder. I think it's kinda funny how he sometimes says "JBEAR OUT!". I just find it really funny when I say it in my head.
