I have a question for all you guys out there: Why did you pick the username you have? Was it based on a favorite piece of yours? A nickname you have? Something that just sounded cool?
For example, I picked my username based off my experiences playing RPG with my friend. I was GM (gamemaster, for all you noobs out there, the guy that runs the adventures), and I made our group a team of mercenaries so we could kill guys and get money for doing it; an easy way to keep a player interested. Due to my obvious love of the creature, I made up a custom Moose species for my character to be. So in the game, I was a mercenary moose.
I have seen that there are very few usernames just picked at random. So I'd like to ask you: What's in your name?

Well, my username is a currently un-Star Wars related name... but, just maybe, in the Jedi Academy set we may see a Kezza Machine character... just maybe. I have a good feeling about it.

My username has two different meanings.
1. A make believe version of a future IG series droid. The number 108 was just appealing to me at the time.
2. IG-108 is the number designation of one of Grievous's bodyguards.
Personally, I like the first description better.

Back when I was a kid, I loved dragons and I wanted to rule the world. I was also a horrible speller.
Over a decade later, I'm still using the same username because I like it, and I've kept the spelling error for the uniqueness value. Also, it was really easy to perform google narcissism on myself (Until Webkinz released a Emperor Dragon toy).

The 'Stele' part of mine is from the old TIE Fighter video game. Main character was Maarek Stele and I thought the name was cool.
'Lobo' is spanish for 'wolf', and while I'm not hispanic, I studied spanish in high school and college, and always liked how the word 'lobo' sounded. I've used it as a screenname or RPG character name for probably 15 years now.

I like pigs. They are funny animals, and tasty too  It's my nickname - I am on a competitive (KCBS) BBQ team  I used to watch a lot of Seinfeld, and I tend to have a wry sense of humor. It fits my personality

My usual screenname "Aginor" was taken, so I just used my email address. Aginor is from the WoT series.

Mine was for a RPG character I made up for Dark Sun.....It was a Thrikreen Gladiator and he wound up being my most successful character ever. I loved the name I made up and have been using it as a screen name for years now.

My screen name comes from South Park. Cartman has a stuffed frog named Clyde Frog and one an old episode he is pretending to be in the Wild Wild West movie and he calls him Artemis Clyde Frog.
The 43 is my old basketball number.

Mine is based off some character from the Magic: the Gathering. I cant remember where he fits in the storyline though.
