I was actually surprised the name Alan_One was available. I know, I lack any creative thought. I tried to think of something cool and Tron related but I came up with a blank. Just then I looked up at the TV and saw the scene where Alan was writing the info on Tron's disc to takedown the MCP and I just went with Alan_One.

Besides, without the info from Alan, who knows if the MCP could go down?abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I just like the name Shadow, and I'd have to define whether I'm a user or a program. I am, of course, a user (duh), so I added the word user, but I had to add an understrike (_) between the shadow and user.

It isn't, however, that way on my photobucket username, shadow_program.

My name is to do with a TRON related film I am scripting. To start with I am Evil Tom Guy, but due to a typo on a TRON like planet I become Evil Tom Gu. And that is all that's to it...



May you protect your insanity, keep your long hair and think of the Bruce.

Tapper is a nickname that I have been called since I was 12. It doesnt mean anything to anyone unless you unscramble and anagram the letters.

The other variation of my name is a joke and play on words for a folder in a popular game I play.

Mine's a Nightmare Before Christmas-styled name based off of the names of Jack Skellington (my favorite character in the movie) and Mega Oogie (my favorite boss battle in Oogie's Revenge; was originally called Trash Oogie), and it's stuck ever since NBC.net.

Me name is a pretty awesome when it's just zazu...thats wut it's been for...ever...

Lets set the way-back-machine for, say, my early childhood. I really liked the lion king, soze, if any of you know, the name of the bird is Zazu.

The mage portion is because when i was playing FFXI I needed 6-20 letters, I wanted to be a mage so I added the mage part on

Zazu, though, call me Zazu.

Protos is the phonetic spelling of the Greek word meaning "first". The protos type (prototype) would be the beginning of a series. Tron Programs are digitally created instances of the protos entity, the User. Okay, so that is a stretch, but that name was available so that's what I used. :-)

Nothing, really. I'm not much for customization or aliases and such (must be my age... ;-) ) I'm a computer programmer (mostly) and prefer consistency. Thus, when I go to create an account somewhere "Matthew" is usually taken and I get some suggestion like "matthew57 is available". Thus, I took the last 3 digits of my license plate, 180, and stuck them on my name. That's pretty much it, and 99% of the time the account name is available. So if you see a matthew180 someplace else, it just may be me! :-)

Occasionally my efficiency kicks in overtime and I sign with M@ (I don't use sigs either.)

I have my name because I just like to use discs in Tron 2.0 and in the movie they just looked very cool especially the way in the movie how everything you learn or do gets recorded on the disc and I also use this as my username for VMK so if you see me in VMK for those VMK players my name is AceTron

JJ My initials
Gregarius: From supposed Latin meaning "fellow soldier." It was an old name from a little Gargoyles "club" on the old PRODIGY service.
I could've used "Byte Dragon" from the old *original* Ultima Dragons on PRODIGY, but JJ Gregarius is the "fanboy" name I tend to use around the Internet now.

***
I have this strange affliction, though: I can talk Gargoyles on TMNT sites, and TRON on Gargoyles sites... does that mean I'll be talking TMNT here? Eegads? No... maybe I can talk TMNT on a Darkwing Duck site, Darkwing Duck on TaleSpin site and, TaleSpin here??? A little better... but I'd better stick to TRON though!

Those were early-to-mid '90s cartoons BTW. I have to face it, as much as I'd like to be a '80s child, it looks like I'm chained to the early '90s. My long-term memory didn't kick in too early, I guess. :-(

Bladdiiddity blah blah.
So what's with my name? Well. In Kingdom Hearts II, the limit command between Sora and Riku (only the coolest fictional character ever created) is called session. Since apparently session was already being used by someone/the site was being crazy, I needed another word in front of it. Or behind. I picked in front.
Saving just sounded cool.
I need a signature. I need to get up. I need to go to bed.

My name comes from a character in a screenplay I wrote many years ago. The screenplay faded away but the name remained and now Morgan Swift is kind of my alter-ego! I view him as a kind of golden age matinee hero type, pilot, racing car driver, inventor, general smartass. One day I'll write another screenplay or book and stick him in it! Ah, when will I ever grow up?!

Good to see another programmer that's in to TRON and S.C.U.B.A. . I just got back from diving the Great Barrier Reef a few weeks ago myself !

As Alan (awindow on the boards) has already eluded to perhaps it's an age thing. Those of us that remember usenet or TRS-80's typically sign up with some permutation of our real names. Granted nicknames can be fun and all that, but IMO that's what avatars or sigs are for. I've never understood why some people are so paranoid as to think that if they use their real name someone online is going to track them down and "get them". Honestly, even if you signed up as DavidSmith in the end no one would really know if you were DavidSmith or not.

For me personally, using my name on boards is simply a matter of being who I am and a way for me to build friendships. Afterall, how close are you to someone that you only know as "ByteKiller" or what not . Anyway, enough preaching from this 30+ person ;^).

Well the .EXE part of my names kindaobvious ay?
Blacklight... well... I was LANing with some mates ... and uh... yeh just randomly popped into my head... somehow. I later found out that it's related to UV rays or something. meh.

Why did I fall in love with Tron?
Well asides from being a geek, the graphic design and the entire Tron world gripped me. Everytime I play Tron 2.0 I cant help but smile at the graphics. I'll probably try and re-create them a lot... but most likely fail :Porder abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

Well, mine is rather easy to explain. Let's set the wayback machine to 1995. I was in middle school. I came up with this epic sci-fi fantasy story idea called "Power Play" (afraid I can't give any details). Needless to say, the lead character was kinda like Flynn (as he described his story to Alan and Lora): a teenage genius and a hacker, who's alias was "Code Breaker". Needless to say, I liked the name so much, I've been using it as my pen name (and some variations) on various BBoards until I hit High School, in which I signed up for my Hotmail account, to which I added "2001" to the end of (because that was the year I graduated from High School). By doing so, it added another variation, including Code_Breaker2001, CodeBreaker2001 and (as you see) CB2001.

Of course, the original epic story has been through quite a lot of revisions. The lead character is still a teenage genius (or at least that what he is made to believe), but not a hacker. The hacker character becomes an individual character with a role to play in the epic story and is featured as the lead of a yet-to-be-written short story called "Power Play: The Onliner", which I have also considered on making as a short film.

So, that's about it. If there are any questions about the above (without it being in relation to "Power Play"), I'm more than willing to answer them (just shoot me a PM).

I really love reading these... It's good to hear that others put meaning into their names as much as I do...

This thread is pretty big...

Many many kudos to Foilism..........
