42-The key to life in the universequote>

42 is the key to life.....I have heard that somewhere. Why is it the key?

quote>

42 is a reference to Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy, 42 is the ultimate answer, "life, the universe and everything!"

Anyway, my name is Jim, and you press 5, 4 and 6 when texting "jim" on a phone.

[Kryptowhite 9]

Because i'm almost as good at basketball as Nate Robinson [aka Kryptonate} except i'm white.

[simcity4fan12 13]

@Kryptowhite- LOL

I chose mine becuase....I don't know exactly. I mainly chose it as a random name becuase all I wanted to do with simtropolis is download stuff. Never thought I'd be part of it.

[Nomadic 23]

I am not new to this site however I forgot about my login for my previous username. Plus I got a more powerful computer for PRO gaming I decided to go back to ST once again.

Anyways Nomadic is just a cool term for Nomad (CRYSIS main character) my fav game.

[ScaryMonkey 0]

Mine's based on Invader Zim (great show for those who've never seen it).  Within the show there's a popular TV program called the Scary Monkey Show (or Angry Monkey Show in some episodes) which is just a continuous picture of a scary-looking monkey breathing heavily (sometimes it growls, too.)  There are all these great little exchanges about it between Zim and his sidekick, GIR, like:

Zim: Whatcha watchin'?
GIR: Scary Monkey Show.
Zim: That... horrible monkey!
 

[AngelOne 0]

Angel: Unfortunately my local comunity suffered the loss four police officers. They were shot down in cold blood by a sick and disturbed man.

I pray that they are with the Angels.

One: I could say this is a random number but it is not. I could say this is a way to place this nickname above all others but is is not.

It is an attempt to draw attention to the unnessary death of all of the innocents.

[SounderBruce 173]

Computer: I likey the computers.

Guy: I am a dude, dude.

890: Last 3 numbers of the keyboard.

100: State Route 100 in southwestern Washington that ends at an intersection with itself.

[edcase2k4-thugangel1983 1]

mine? well it's basically just two different usernames i've used before... (edcase and thugangel) put together.

while we're on that subject, do any mods know if it would be at all possible to change my username. i know that sort of thing is not usually allowed but in the case of mine it wouldn't be so bad if i could shorten it, would it?

please?

i did actually send an email about this to what i thought was dirk's email address, a long time ago... but i never got a reply.

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

On my friend's forum, I was known as Yoshi64. When I made a YouTube Account, Yoshi64 was taken. I thought for a while & then ROFLyoshi struck me. So thats what I am known as across various things. If you are on Mario Kart Wii & come upon a ROFLyoshi Mii, thats me!

[Wiecher 192]

Well, no big story around my username... It's just my first name

[rainyday 2]

I chose mine, simply because I was looking out the window at a rainy day, hence "rainyday"!

[Renedius 25]

my old username was renemone first and second name

my new username renedius, rene my first name and dius, is gradius.

[Faded Glory 13]

Hmm. I wish I had a story, but... I don't. I was signing up, and this name (also a clothing brand) struck me as a cool name, so I ran with it. Luckily, it wasn't taken... I actually had several others that were. Ah well. I still got my beloved username

[Tedius Zanarukando 0]

My username was inspired by the Square Enix video game Final Fantasy X. "Zanarukando" is the Japanese kana spelling of "Zanarkand." "Tedius" was inspired by the pronunciation of the character name "Tidus", which is derived from "Tiida", which is Ainu for "sun." It is somehow confused with the word "tedious", also implying that I have no interest in romantic relationship.  I first chose the username in 2002.

[Roger51 381]

Roger - From American Dad (Fav. character)

51 - Area 51

That is how I came up with my Username.

[awake_78 0]

Mine it's a nick I use frequently. It'sa combination from Dream Theatrer's 3rd album "awake".... and obviously my year of birth!!!!

[hittwice99 619]

I chose my username because I am a big fan of cricket. An unusual way to get out, is to hit the ball twice (hit twice). I added number 99 because it would be funny for a batsman to get out "hit twice" for 99 runs! End result = hittwice99

[pckiller 1]

I am known as PcKiller for along time. I had a website www.Pckiller.net, that did PC Game reviews. Was a Moderator on four different tech forums. Gave that all up when I when over the road. (you make very good money driving tractor trailer)

The way I came up with the username, was I run my PC games at such high a resolution, that it is a killer on the PC. Atleast that is what I tell everyone. LOL

[Timmystwin 201]

mine was an insult someone said on xbox, due to one of my unorthadox tactics with a mate. He didnt get the fact that i dont care about COD, and if I want to play like an idiot, i will. Also, it was my old username on the original PSN ( the PS2 version).

[Col-Joe 0]

I used to play a lot of Command and Conquer Generals, and I really liked the 'Colonel Burton" unit. I soon adapted the Colonel rank to my name and used as my single player username. When I got into Simcity 4 and found this site in 2006, I renovated my good old name, Col-Joe.

[ZJRuddock 16]

Im not creative so its just my first 2 initials and then my last name

[inflatablegoo 2]

Mine has a long story behind it that contains a bike pump, a bottle of slime, and a spill.

[bluesmith5 0]

Because we have to go by some witty representation of ourselves on an anonymous level yet still give others a tiny peak into our inner being. Of course wit is optional as most of us prove regularly. Me, I'm a blue alien that kidnaps, er interviews humans named smith (since there's so many of them) and I only have 5 light years left on your planet. 

[Godzillaman 21]

Simple:

Nuclear lizard > Humanity's weapons

Edit: It doesn't seem under the size limits but it is...

[LILCHRIS5X 5]

This is my Youtube name. I am small and I am called Chris. What more do you need. The 5X is there because I couldn't just have LILCHRIS as that is the name of a singer and the name had already been taken.

[617squad 52]

617 Squadron of WWII. AKA: the Dam Busters and those who sunk the mighty Tirpitz. one as an homage to WWII vets and second, i'm as bull headed and as audacious as them sometimes.

[ilikehotdogsalot 311]

I like hotdogs a lot.

[tritri 0]

My name is Tristan, and my nickname when I was around 13 years old was "Tritri"... and I registered to this website at around this age.

[LivingInThePast 364]

I wanted to download stuff, and I was also kind of liking SimCity 2000/3000 at the time. Hence, I became LivingInThePast (no relation to the Jethro Tull song)
