my user name comes from a really obscure game by the name Zool witch basically was about an ninja from another dimension trapped in Candyland.... yeah pretty weird stuff but fun game none the less, i believe it was a launch title for one of the Amiga models, it was ported to many systems, the only one i have ever played was the SNES version, i think i sequel was made for the jaguar in which you could select a female character also ands thats were the series died.
First game is worth checking out if u enjoy a good platformer.

Yeah the second one was sponsored by chupa chups lollypops I'm not so sure about the first one though, the game seemed pretty obscure to me, every one that i have talked to about it really didn't know what i was talking about, maybe i was talking to the wrong ppl (even though they were all avid gamers), actually think it might have been more popular en EU since it was developed by a british publisher.

My name stems from the character Raziel in the Soul Reaver.
I loved him and I loved the name so I adopted it :razz:

Back when Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was rereleased, I was trying to think of a name for my character. I couldn't bring myself to name the character Link and Zero Punctuation wasn't out so I didn't think of using "I Say." Eventually I thought it would be funny if I had a space in my name, so instead of using a full name I used a prefix. I chose Dr. over Mr. for some reason and I chose Dib as it was a short name and was from Invader Zim which I was heavily into at the time. I don't believe I used it on the internet until I played World of Warcraft though.

Tratzo Tordana was the name of my avatar in the MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies, I just took Tratzo and started using it for different forums and such. I prefer to use my real name but when that's not possible Tratzo it is.

When i don't want to use my usual SN for a forum, i make up some random name, usually insulting myself to lessen the tragedy when i make mistakes. Then i just starting using "Moe-ron" for that purpose, because i think it's kinda funny. Also, for a time i thought it was the name of the dumb alien from freakazoid.

I started out on a Transformers forum (Seibertron.com) and while I was surfing there, I came up with a name similar to Lord Unicron. I typed Lord into a thesaurus and Exulted was one of the names that came up.

And thus...Exulted Unicron was born!

It's derived from Red Arremer, which is the name of the red devils from Ghost n Goblins, and the species of Gargoyle which Firebrand is from. (Gargoyle's Quest 1, 2, Demon's Crest.)

I once always used ButtonMasher as a username but on one site it was taken.I tried putting in numbers but then it was uncool.I then typed masher to see how that looked but it didn't strike me as original.So I started saying different ways of pronouncing the word and stumbled across Mashere.The rest is history. :-D
