What does your screen name mean? Or where did it come from?

[BlueBMW]

We seem to have a pretty big variety of usernames here.  Some are pretty obvious in their meaning... others maybe not so much.

So what does your screen name mean, and how did you come up with it?

BlueBMW - I like BMWs, and I like blue, plus the two "B" sounds seem to flow nice   My personal BMW is actually white.

[turbogrfxfan]

mine cause Ive been a fan of the turbo since 1989 but I actually have more pce games as of now

[Frank_fjs]

Mine isn't anything fancy. Simply my first name followed by my initials.

[rag-time4]

The first part of my screen name is from my favorite genre / era of music... the number 4 come from being a huge fan of Stromile Swift

[Arkhan Asylum]

I play alot of D&D.

Arkhan was my elf fighter mage.

I got the name by respelling Archon.  I still don't know the proper pronunciation of that game anyway.

[Colossus1574]

wow....i still remember his name from when we drafted him...i think he was from Vancouver's last draft year....

Anyways, Colossus of the X-men is my favourite comic book character (even though he regularly gets beatup by other powerhouse guys in the Marvel universe). The 1-5-7-4 was his stats from an old defunct card game called Marvel Overpower. And my name is also my Ebay ID 

[MotherGunner]

I served in the U.S. Military, pretty self-explanatory.  Also a play on "MotherFucker" =)

I once won an Archon tourney (NES) at a friend's birthday! It was single elimination! Great memories!

That's right! They drafted him very high (number 2) and never really played him.

[OldRover]

Mine's from an old Mithotyn song called "The Old Rover". My other nickname, Nodtveidt, is from Jon Nodtveidt, the late frontman for the band Dissection.

[Joe Redifer]

Y'know, I'm not really sure what's up with my screen name. It's pretty bland, though... just like me!

[nat]

It's, uh, my name.

[TR0N]

Do i realy need to explain why 

[Tatsujin]

Tatsujin, coz am 

[NecroPhile]

necromancer
   –noun
      1. one who practices necromancy (a method of divination through communication with the dead; black art).

Which really means nothing.  More importantly, Necromancer is a PCE game, a sci-fi book from the sixties, and a song by Rush (the awesomest Canuck band evah!).  Plus, it's a combo of NEC and romancer..... meaning I like to have sex with Turbobs or something.

[Joe Redifer]

Tatsujin, coz am 

You're the living embodiment of Truxton?

[Alt-Nintega]

South Bronx where I was raised at growing up and the area code.

[BlackandBlue]

My wife and I, up until recently, both had Acura RSX's.  Her's is black, mine was blue.  Before we met we both had Chevy Berettas.  Mine was black and her's was blue.  I picked the name when I used to go on car forums a lot and couldn't think of anything better.  It just stuck since then.

[1980-20..]

1980 is the year i was born and unless something radical happens in the world of medicine then i will die in a year beginning 20 but i don't know which one yet so there are two dots.

[BlueBMW]

I had a disk copy of Archon for my Atari 800... never understood it fully, but it was still a very fun little game!

[Starfighter]

Mine doesn't mean anything, it's just my name.

Go Hurricanes!  I'm quite jealous you guys have the "Storm Squad!" 
We only have ice cleaner girls for Canucks' games.

[henrycsc]

See... another reason to be ashamed.... they are in North Carolina.  LOL

I need to move.  Ceti, is it cold up there?

[_Paul]

Sunteam is what my friends and I called ourselves when we started to work on Amiga projects. I've tried to keep the name alive even though it's pretty much just me now. The name kind of derived from Sunsoft (which I first know from City Hunter on the PCE) and, probably, Wolf Team. One of our original logos used an S ripped off of PCE Hellfire-S.

For real??? You never played hits like BlasterMaster or Batman for the NES??? I think these 2 would predate the perverted adventures of Ryo Saeba! 

[JoshTurboTrollX]

1999-2007 turbo_Sage/turbosage - turbo cause I like the turbo, and sage cause the frog dude in the woods told me he was the 'sage in the woods'.

In 2007/2008 ish I changed it to JoshTurboTrollX-16 all because I was working on a movie that was supposed to be the third in the 'turbomadness' trilogy/saga/epic...lawl.  I had basically made a movie with at the time was some pretty cool effects of a dude getting sucked into the dreamcast game phatasy star online.  In this movie I ran around in a digital world and spoke with other people trying to get back to the real world... etc etc...

Then after a few weeks or work I lost all of the info on a HDD that went corrupt (I couldn't even recover the edited/raw footage using linux).  So the movie never happened.... but I just left the name.  the movie was to be called JoshTurboTrollX-16 Online.  TSO --- PSO... get it?  lol

but yeah, I never had the urge to start that over from scratch... maybe someday.

On youtube/twitter I'm shubibinman cause it's one of my favorite game franchises on the pce/turbo

on saturn.uk forums I'm scud... again.  One of my favorite saturn characters.  Love the comics too ;)

oh on eGay I'm gamescapeonline, cause years ago I started a game shop called GamEscape and gamescapeonline was to be my online store er something....

I think that is all.

[hashiriya1]

When I lived in Japan I was really into the hashiriya (racing) culture, so that is my username. On the weekends my friends and I would do runs at the track or on the mountain roads of Miyagi, Iwate, and Yamagata prefectures.  I had a GBD WRX STi and an R32 GT-R. I am still into it, but I am going towards the "bippu" aspect of the tuner culture.  I added the "ichi" at the end because I like the movie Koroshiya Ichi (Ichi the Killer)

[TR0N]

Mine doesn't mean anything, it's just my name.

Funny i thought your nickname was related to this classic 80's flim jk.

Dude....you sound like a regular Takumi! u don't deliver tofu on the side do you?    Man, you guys are so lucky with all those crazy mountain downhills....a drifter's dream 

[Duo_R]

Duo-R....I wanted one ever since I saw pictures of it in VG&CE back in the day. It looked so friggin awesome. I finally picked one up two years ago and it has become my favorite system.

It's nothing like Initial D, haha. There are no trash talkers or tofu delivery guys. All just guys like you and me doing what we love. We aren't really into drift, just grip. The drifting guys use a different mountain. The rule is, don't drift on a grip road, and don't grip on a drift road. They are two different cultures. Grippers aren't really fond of drifters , and drifters, well, they are all high school kids with unpaid dues.

[DragonmasterDan]

I was part of a Lunar message board in 1996 or so that was attached to a Sega Saturn fansite. Rather than just post Dan I added the Dragonmaster to the front, I've been using it ever since.

Sometime around 6 or 7 years ago, some Pokemon loving kid in England started using my screen name as well

But he generally puts a space between the Dragonmaster and Dan which I do not.

NES wasn't very popular in the UK. It was pretty much the poor man's Master System.
