what made you choose your nickname?

I don't know if a topic like that already exists but here it goes \o/

How did you choose your nickname??

Mine's because it's how Slipknot calls his fans, and I found it interesting!
you can run, but not fast enough...

Aitamen suggested mine.  He said that gs93 was too many syllables.  This one has more kick anyway.

I originally joined GameFAQs for the Pokemon Emerald boards.  I chose to stick with that one for almost every site I go to.

I chose mine because of the now undocumented 'genus' incident. After reading mike's first fake chat, I figured that I would comply with the allmighty prophecy. Also consider the comedic effect of a nearly identical recanting.

Oh, and I picked blueblaze as a nick because Sonic runs fast. Creative. Horribly so. The very inginuitive nature of it frightens me to this day.

I used to have a nick rockmanegg which was a combination of rockman and eggman. People started calling just egg after a while, so I used that. For certain places I add 'fl' at the end, which stands for final _lap which is my GameFAQs nick which I made while thinking of the DJ from Ridge Racer 5. :S

I assumed you liked crowbars or something.  As for my story, it's just basically thinking of a fancharacter name sometime... in 2001.  That's it.  So I just use this name for Sonic-related stuff.

Honestly, I'll be a five-legged shit-covered tarantula before I know entirely.


PsyBorg is obviously a pun on the words Psy and Borg. When joined together, they sound like Cyborg.


The "Borg" at the end of my name is because I always liked robots/my character is a cyborg.


I seriously don't remember why the Psy is there very well. I think I just did it for a pun, but it could also be there because I originally thought my character would be able to screw up the opponents' mind with his robotic stuff.


Overall, I just liked the name. So screw what it really means, I picked it because I liked it.

You like RPG's and you're a nut.

...ter. Or something. Go eat nuts. (No, not those nuts...)

I'm a Who fan. Sonic Spinball + Pinball Wizard... well, put 2 and 2 together.

And to add to egg's comment... BLAZIN'.
<Tails> also "GET BLUE SPHERES" on a black-and-white TV remains the best special stage of all time

<Achlys> wat ave you done!
<Spinballwizard> apparently killed your h key

Middle initial (I go by my middle name) then my last name, then Kevin Harvick's Busch Series number.

Simple as that.

Anyway thanks for making fun, guys. Also, I still don't know where 'BLAZIN' is from. Anyway thanks.

You saw an angel in a dream and told you to call yourself "douglas" on the Internet, no matter whereever your Internetravels may take you?

Hey! Mine is marginally more interesting! X)

I switched it to "yse" for a couple of weeks in honour of TSC's disgraceful spelling standards.
