    I think the name is a little obvious. So why did you choose your avatar, username, and user title?

    Shogun means General in japanese. MY wish is YOUR command sounds cool and Code Geass is my favorite anime and Lelouch is one of my favorite anime characters, so that explains the avatar.

    Dywyydyr is a name I came up with for a novel I started writing many years ago - it's been applied (in the novel and a game) to a person, a country, a warship and a starship.

    User title? You mean [ENC]snotwuh[/ENC]. That gets changed on a semi-regular basis, as and when something amusing (or, as in this case, fabulously witty

    ) occurs to me.

    Avatar? I'm a comics geek. It was either going to be Grifter (the current one) from the WildC.A.T.s (because I like his attitude) or Midnighter (from The Authority) because he was altered by aliens to have a computer brain specialised for combat and his catchphrase was "I've seen every move you're going to make and I already know how this is going to end" - which is the way I feel reading some threads.

    Well, I guess i'll explain mine.

    My avatar is a German Panzer IV. Circa WWII. I have it because I am of German descent. Also because I love history especially the World Wars.

    My snotwuh is actually a song by my favorite band. "Seek and Destroy" by MetallicA, off their Kill Em All album.

    My username pertains to me being a Star Wars fan. Omega is a clone generation designation and 133 is the clone number.

    Mine represents that I travel through the cosmos seeking new places and ideas while enjoying the cultures of species of each new world I encounter as I journey through time and space.

    I dont have an avatar and there is a good reason for that. Mainly due to observations made over time. My name means i am the original John99.

    When I was trying to come up with a username, I had been working to contain a spill from in a settling-pond (it's a long story). Having worn myself out slogging around through deep stinking mud in hip waders, and coming home to ponder participating in political discussions here, that's what came to mind: A description of my amazing imperviousness to any intellectual insult, when I don my stupendous self-defining username.

    I really should have joined sciforums on a day when I was doing something better.

    Heh. I guess most people choose something relating to them?

    You didn't?

    By the way, I'm sure there's a previous thread like this one. I'll try to find it and link it, just for reference.


    Edit: There have been several threads on avatars, threads on usernames, but going back a bit I don't see any about all 3: Those, and our titles. (never mind)


    Oh, and my avatar is obviously William. And the user title is obvious too.

    My user-title is from one of Shakespeare's sonnets.

    Let me not to the marriage of true minds
    Admit impediments. Love is not love
    Which alters when it alteration finds,
    Or bends with the remover to remove:
    O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
    That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
    It is the star to every wandering bark,
    Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
    Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
    Within his bending sickle's compass come:
    Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
    But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
    If this be error and upon me proved,
    I never writ, nor no man ever loved.


    And my username...

    My user name and avatar are based on my love of Cowboy Bebop. My current user title ("The end is nigh!") is from the sign Walter Kovacs/Rorschach carried around when wandering the streets without his costume in The Watchmen movie.
