 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
Celareon is my nickname in fantasy games and in sci-fi games and forums i use MrC (Mr.Celareon) and 121989 (01.02.1989) is my birth date. I cant remember how i comeup with Celareon though... must be something i madeup on my own.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
Back in my grade school years, I had an obsession with the word "prod," and thus, I continually used it for the years that followed until somewhat recently.

Micspammers on Live failed at pronouncing Oobagoo so I poked some random keys.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
People call me crazy occasionally, and my initials are MLC. It's the best I could come up with.
But it's catchy, ain't it?

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
Around the time I came up with this username, there was a scare that bananas were going to be wiped out entirely due to a virus or insect or bacteria or something. I was pondering what I would do if I were to discover that I had in my possession the very last banana on Earth. It's become somewhat of a tradition for me to come up with usernames late at night and with little deliberation, so TheLastBanana was just sort of the first thing to pop to mind. I've gone by a lot of other usernames, but I honestly don't think I could explain most of them, so I'll just leave it at that.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
Before I settled on Carriontrooper, I used to call myself DDT, like the poison. It had a pattern similar to my initials, and my teenage mind is somehow attracted to death and all that stuff. So I went signing my works as DDT for a few years... and then I came up with CarrionTrooper while Counter-Strike was popular. I figured myself the kind of guy that would soldier on even after death, and I was gauntly like a zombie anyway, and it kinda stuck.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
When I was small, I couldn't pronounce the letter 'M' so I called myself Natti. I had forgot that until a few years back when my mother told me about that. It sounded nice and I just started using it. Before that I went with Nattuli. Then I realised it sounded silly, and started using Nautileus and Nautilus as alternate nicks if Natti is taken.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
It's similar to my real name and there aren't many other ways to make a intelligible phrase out of it.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
Oh, I forget that I used 411570N3 here. Yeah, it's the leetspeak of Allstone, which is a minor obfuscation of my real name.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
Here I use Maart3n, which is my real first name with the e replaced for a 3. In quite a few games I use Maar7en, not only because Maart3n is taken but also because I often get in crazy situations and come out without a scratch, and 7 is a lucky number. Currently I often use Valkyri3, started of when my Maar7en account got banned somewhere(still not sure why.) I just went with some random mythological creatures until one wasn't taken. When that's take I use Basilisk. I prefer Valkyri3 though, because people tend to short the names down, and Valk still sounds okay, Basy not so much. Back in the day, we're talking 5-6 years ago, I used Maarten953. Maarten was taken so the game gave me a list of possible passwords that were similar. 953 is a pattern, 9/2= 4.5 round up, 5/2=2.5 round up, so I picked it. And since windows live is populated with ♥♥♥holes and I only wanted to play section 8 I picked a name that would fit in with the AI. I chose to use the latin for sword of the god(or gods): "Gladus Domini" 111herbert111 wrote: My friend called the rift worm from Gears of War 2 "Herbert", I just stuck some 1's on either end. Also, this is my middle name and my dad's first name. It never ceases to amaze people how hilarious my middle name is.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
The computer I shared with my brother back in the day was called "Desbox" A shortening of "desma's box". Desma being a mashed together word of "De små" which means the little ones. When I finally got my own computer I called it pelbox as my name is pelle. When I then went online I got fascinated with 1337speak (much to my later regret) and changed out some letters. It just stuck from then.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
I had the nickname trousers, for wearing my trousers up very high on the waist. I added Demon for use on the internet, blissfully unaware of any innuendoes. It was funny when I was 12/13. I have it as my username everywhere. With a single exception, "Geekazoid" on newgrounds, I am trouserdemon all over the internet.

 Re: What's Behind the Alias?
Barnox came from needing a medieval-sounding name for an RP. I was unaware of the Shedcow synonym. Newer name of Banrax came from a misspelling that stuck.
