    How did you decide on a user name for PC o_O ?
    Some are quite diverse and interesting :rolleyes:

    Mine, well I used to have a boss that would delegate the days jobs only to continually reiterate what he'd already said :confused:

    So I used to just walk away to my job :p

    He'd call out after me "Chris, Chris, Chris..........I'd ignore him though:D

    So I got the nick name Stofforson, as in the actor Kris Kristopherson
    (soon abbreviated to Stoffo :cool: )

    Mine was incredibly tricky and convoluted - I won't bore you with the story.

    I took my first name "Dan" and then I added a space then I mashed on my surname at the end "Donoghue", I am pretty sure I used a similar algorithm to Jess, it really was quite complex and indeed an arduous task but we got there in the end :).

    I couldn't be bothered with the whole surname.

    When I was on SS There was already a Geoff (Geoff Doidge who used to do a segment with a mate on tv as the Reno Kings. He was unhappy when I came in as a newby so changed his name to Geoff1 just to make sure nobody would get confused ;-)

    The movie matrix came out in 1999, and I started getting into PC games, and used trinity as my gaming handle.
