it's my name. i used to use dkrock7, which i devised in i think 6th grade, and it meant "dead kennedys rock" with track 7 of fresh fruit for rotting vegetables ("chemical warfare") being my favorite on the record at the time.

i still use it as a login on a lot of sites.

my avatar is the dag nasty record can i say. it rules. you should download and listen to it here: http://icoulddietomorrow.blogspot.com/2 ... i-say.html

You look like a younger, more disgruntled Robert Downey Jr.

Mine is pretty straight forward; xan from my first name, Alexander and having enjoyed reading all the great articles on past systems I decided throw that in my username as well.

I get a lot of questions about my gamertag which is my username. :D

My real name is Valeri and I took German for 4 years in highschool. The teacher made us pick a German name to be called and I wanted to keep my real name due to it already being German but she said I had to pick another. I chose Ursula because it's creepy sounding and interesting to me at the same time.

As for the 69, it comes from a band called, "The 69 Eyes" and they're from Finland. When they write their first names down, they always put a 69 behind it. So it DOESN'T have a dirty meaning behind it for me. LOL

For my avatar, it perfectly fits me as I am and what I look like for the 360. :lol:

Sindel is one of my favorite characters in MK.

My avatar I chose because I wanted one, and I was hard up for one. I just hunted around the My Pictures folder until I found it, and decided to use it. I always found the CDi LoZ games to be hilariously bad, so I chose it. I didn't choose it because I like Nintendo best, I actually like Microsoft (Xbox, Windows, DOS) best.

Well, things have changed a bit in the past 1 year and 4 months, so I'll update. My username is still just a unique but meaningless thing. It's pronounced "Boring SooPreez," BTW, not "Boring Sup-Preez." My avatar is Buttercup from the show PPG. Made it myself from a screenshot I took. The job offers for positions as graphics designer are really piling up at my house. :lol: Also, I no longer like MS best, I like Sony best now. MS really lost me with that whole Kinect thing.

In addition to updating my post, I'm hoping this bump will encourage new members to explain their avatars and usernames, since this thread has been buried for a long time.

Scarper has been and always will be my pen name. Occasionally coupled with James Scarper, but most of the time its just Scarper.
It came from a British Victorian Era crime novel I read called Montmorency. Montmorency was a gentleman, while his other-self, Scarper, stole goods to keep Montmorency wealthy. They are both the same person. Plot develops from there. It's been a while since I read it, but I remember it being good.

My avitar is a gif of MegaMan dancing. I liked it a lot.
