I just want to find out how you guys chose your usernames. I'll start:

ComputerGuy: I like computers and I am a male.

"Synthetic Dreams" is the name of a song I like. "Coredesat" and "Chikai" are also parts of names of songs that I like, hence why I use those names.

Though some will not agree with me, I actually liked ST: Voyager, especially after introducing Seven of Nine.....

un in French means one, and well 1 is one..
So one one, or 11 or un un.

[Scott5114]

Scott is my real name. The first time I was registering an account on a forum (this was when I was 13 I think?) I needed a string of numbers to stick to it so I grabbed a box of Ziploc bags and looked at the UPC code and the first four digits were "5114". It was easy to remember, so it stuck, and the rest is history.

[deathtopumpkins]

Of all the places to get a random string of numbers... a Ziploc UPC code?

[austrini]

in ancient nordic and heathen mythology- the flat world was held up on each corner by an elf. There were four of them : nordri, sudri, westri, and austrini. It is where the names of the English cardinal directions (north, south, west, and east respectively) come from. Austrini was the elf of the "east" and symbolized rebirth, fire, and honesty.
