How'd you come up with your username?
I personally had a dream where my bro was photoshopping a Pikachu's trozei sprite into a digital form (What it would look like on the Poketch). When you looked at it from the side, it looked like a ninja's mask. I made fun of the whole ninja vs. pirate thing, and I became
The Masked Pirate.
I realized that the word "the" is unnecessary, and I came up with a random # (82) which turned it into
maskedpirate82.

Bah, 42 would make a much better random no.
I used to be "Oblivion0807". Oblivion because it sounded cool, 0807 because my birthday is August 7. Mastercougar used to call me "Blivsey" as a fun nickname whenever I'd post in the Serebii thread. A year or two ago, I ended up deciding that I needed a username without any numbers in it, since they seemed a bit newbish to me. So, needing something to call myself, I used the nickname already provided by MC: "Blivsey".
So, in a sense, our gracious Admin granted me my username. [/suckup]

A shiny ditto that was hit by a meteor or something? Maybe I'm immortal, forever cursed to watch everyone around me die? No idea. I used this name for MMORPGs for a long time, and eventually started using it on forums.

I like bread a lot, so I chose my favorite type to be my username. On some others forums before, I was "Rye", my third Favorite bread.

I've been playing Phoenix Wright lately, so I stole "Phoenix" from that. I needed to add a little spice to it (cuz "Phoenix" would be boring), so I figured, "flames have to do with Phoenixes (or Phoenixi, not sure which)", so I got this. Does it seem girly to you guys? It kinda does to me...  |

Actually, didn't you ask me what a good screenname would be?
I suggested "Scarlet Phoenix," which you instantly rejected, but you liked the "Phoenix" part.
We tried other things, like "Smoking Phoenix," but the first one you liked was "Flaming Phoenix."
Although, you were concerned that people would read "flaming" as an -ing form of flam, and then consider you a flammer.
LOL.
That's how it really happened, right?
