What's your username mean?

My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

Close! It's Ancient Greek for the Roman, and pronounced "ho rhōmaios". Although "op/opwoc" made me laughed heartily, and Cecil is more than flattering.pakopako wrote:If the wiki is anything correct, A Roman.YoshiEgg25 wrote:I just think "Op".

I'm glad you re-explained, because your earlier post in this thread was one that made especially little sense without context.CFFJR wrote:My username is my initials, plus Junior. Simple.
Regarding your love of the Ecco soundtrack(s) (and Hyperstone Heist), it sounds like we had a bit in common growing up!

Re: Whats the meaning behind your avatar and or user name?
I already posted mine and discovered a hidden advantage in using eight letters in my Avatar name. I use the same name in Wii and Gamecube games and discovered eight characters is the max amount as a user save name in a lot of the games. Strange, the C64 also has a max of eight letters in saving files to the floppy disk.CRTGAMER wrote:Name: CRTGAMER, I have a preference to CRTs over LCDs. Lucky to own one of the few HD CRT 4:3 TVs.

Re: Whats the meaning behind your avatar and or user name?
Hey, mine has 8-letters too
I haven't posted mine in this thread yet, so here goes.
My Name:
Pretty simple really. I used to like running at night (night-RuNneR).
But RnR also stands for "Rock 'n Roll" and "Rest 'n Relaxation", both of which are agreeable with my personality.
Sometimes I think of my handle "Nighterner" as "one who roams the night".
As for my current Avatar (which could change any time):
The Sorcerer's Apprentice was one of my 1st experiences with fantasy, which I consider my first love (fantasy). I loved everything about it, the story, the music, the magic, and even Mickey.
But I also think that I feel the same way Mickey does in that pic, every time I pick up a game to play (awesome, I'm gonna' cause some $#*& to happen).
There ya' go, that's it.

Re: Whats the meaning behind your avatar and or user name?
My wife painted this cool red skull with a textured background, and I just dug it. I think it looks very Metal! \m/
Then I went to CoolText.com to generate the logo for "Metal Jesus Rocks".
I think it turned out well...
